S200 cylinder leaking. Help please.

2 x 4mm drill bits will fit into the end cap. Clamp the cylinder and use a bit of heat and the drill bits will act as levers.

I'm pretty certain Alex at TAL Arms will have the tools to remove the end fitting, but as others have said it's a bu**er to remove first time. I tried with the proper tools and a B&D Workmate and suceeded in breakling the workmate without removing the filler end. Finally gave up, bought a new tube, an external Huma reg and a new filler with guage and that sorted it. Still have the old tube with the filler still firmly stuck.

Thanks for the generous offer. Much appreciated. I’ve posted my good experience about getting it fixed at a different gunsmith.
Cheers.
