    Can you believe it?

    Matty, weren't the BSA O ring implements a little tight.... Not sure if the AA implements were the same?

    BSA are famous for being tight yes - The grooves in the piston heads have to be made a little deeper - only a little though...

    AA Sidelever O rings are not to tight , they slide nicely on the guns I have stripped and serviced

    I expect you would have them even less crushed though
