JackWard 0 Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 Hi my bsa ultra multi has been dodgy lately, the time before tonight when i had it out the magazine kept misifiring after i had let a shot off, and the magazine would come out. Tonight, exactly the same happened except the magazine wouldnt come out at all, it still wont, can anybody guide me or help me with these problems. Kind Regards JackW Quote Link to post
bedrock 16 Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 BSA mags are renowned for being crap all the Internals are crap and unreliable. Pepole say they have no problems with theirs but if they use them enough they will brake. Its a shame really because they are cracking guns. atb bedrock Quote Link to post
Wanna be farmer 0 Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 We'll leave our disputes to one side and i'll help you. I have the same problem with mine. The magazine won't come out. But i have to pull the cocking leaver out as far as it will possibly go and wiggle the mag. PM me if you can't fix it and i'll guide you through it. Quote Link to post
Lee85 44 Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 my friend recently went to buy his first pcp from Henry Kranks in Leeds, he was after a BSA Multi after shooting my cousins single shot version, he really liked the rifle, as do I. Anyhow - the fella at kranks told him that he didn't want to sell him one because of feedback he's had from them - but would sell him a single shot - he ended up with a good deal on a AA S400 Quote Link to post
Wanna be farmer 0 Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 I would never part with my multi, even though i've had a few problems with it, i love it! Quote Link to post
hughes_jh 0 Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 Lots of questions to ask here.... - is there any chance you have pressed the bolt in a little bit.... thereby half loading a pellet? - have you definitely released the actual magazine holding pin? - Is the bolt fully retracted? (you need to keep this oiled otherwise the dry metal will stick against the o-rings on the magazine) I can't see how the magazine would stick without some specific reason for it. Quote Link to post

hughes_jh 0 Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 top man john Just wondering how JackWard is doing? I suspect he has just "found" the holding mechanism for the magazine and realised what its function is. I'm still loving the Ultra Davy, its a superb gun and suits me perfectly. The condition of the gun is a credit to Charlie and I'm happy to report that I've maintained it in a similar condition Early on I spent a few hours continually plinking and noticed the bolt felt a little sluggish when being seated and released, a spot of oil later and no further problems to report. The other thing I find is you have to remind yourself to recock the gun in the same sequence, otherwise the mag will skip past a pellet (but thats no big issue as you get 9 good shots, it would be worse if it mis-loaded and I had a shot with no pellet in the breech!)
