    RWS C225 Co2 PISTOL

    Phew, recently had one of these pistols for repair. Not my usual field I have to say. Co2 just pouring straight out through the barrel. Almost no info out there, so fly by experience and hope. To be fair it wasn't as bad as I expected, no real ''flying parts''. Sourcing O rings wasn't that easy, some just don't like Co2, but my local suppliers BSL Walsall managed to offer several choices of material, for all but one ring which is a 1.2 mm section; which they don't stock. It seems metric O rings are not at all straight forward, some countries use different increments ??!!
    Anyway success, the O rings worked ok; lost count of the hours involved; no profit after buying O rings, but satisfaction by the bucket load. More important, a gun still in use.

    C225

    Oh bellringer - well done.

    Mine is now doing exactly the same…what was the source of the problem in the end?

    How much of a nightmare was it and did you do a step by step video (I fear not) would you want to do it again? If so how much? 😂

    If you go over to Umarex Boys Club - Technical section there is a detailed strip down and rebuild or there used to be. Been a few years since I was on there.

    I have a problem with my nonfunctional c225. Please tell me who I can send it to for possible repair.

    ha, I had one of those pistols some years back that did exactly the same thing.Whoosh and all the gas came out of the barrel at once. had a bit of a shock. Id no idea about how to try and fix it, so sent it to Armex who were the umarex agents. When it came back from them having had a new valve fitted it still had the fault so back it went to them. 2nd time it seemed to be fixed, but I'd lost confidence in it so sold it whilst all was Ok
