SMK Victory CP2

[Peashooter 177]

Hi, I have a SMK Victory CP2. Its a lovely gun apart from loading, mainly with the long barrel using either single or multi shot loading the pellet starts going in then stops and bolt has to having extra force applied, is this a common problem and is there a cure?

[Hsing-ee]

Sounds like it could do with a strip and a polish to remove any burrs or rough spots on the bolt etc. Or is it dry of any lube?

Try different pellets too. Some are larger than others and ones with softer skirts tend to load more easily in these

I get this with some pellets.

I don’t think it’s a fault as such.
Unless you have to use a lot of force.

Try JSB pellets there not a tight fit , i would try some JSB RS.

if you have changed the barrel a few times --look for the little oring that seals the barrel has it been disturbed -- I did not notice when I changed my barrel that the oring did not come out with the barrel so when I put the longer barrel in I got 2 o rings in and they had moved and blocked the loading of a pellet and had to use force to get them in --- have a look you never know

On the nose. Exactly the same with mine. Removed the extra "O" ring and its sweet as a nut.

glad problem sorted -- another tip put barre in with bolt closed it helps line up the o ring

Only one seal fitted. When no barrel fitted pellets drop through hole, with long barrel fitted without pellet bolt moves easily in and out. Bought narrow pellets still the same. Just put file up barrel and will try it tomorrow night.

Found on the table a thin ring of lead I think must have fallen out from between breach and barrel washer which must have been the restriction but I removed barrel seal and as I said put a needle file around the edge of barrel to remove any burrs.

Success, thanks guys the pellets fit easily from both the single and multi shot trays now it's a great bit of kit.

I put a £40 scope on mine and its the best bit of kit I have ever had for sub £200.

This is entirely user dependent. I bought a .177 for plinking and a bit of farmyard ratting.
