    Thank you so much. 👍
    Nothing is enough for the man to whom enough is too little.

Turn the screw back in--in quarter turns if necessary--until you can just feel the second stage pause. That's about as light as it'll get and still give the 2-stage feedback."

    Here's my 124 in "the compressor"

    Brilliant idea. My drill press is bench mounted so probably not enough reach. Great thinking though. 👍

    I'll second that , their piston seals are good too but the one I just fitted needed quite a bit resizing as it was far too tight robbing 100fps off the power of my 124m the one in my mk2 124 I had had a perfect fit without resizing.

    JM makes most of his seals oversize so they can be fit to a wide range of tubes.
    Too many airguns!

    Really ?i was under the impression the green seal which I have were a standard size & he does a red oversized one for slightly larger tube dia's that some of the mk1's had.

    He does different sizes for some guns but a lot of his seals need sizing.
    Too many airguns!
