rizla1 122 Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 sounds like your piston seals gone, strip it down and check it Quote Link to post
SEAN3513 7 Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 possibly breech seal ??? does the air come out from between the breech and the action when you try and fire it ??? cheers sean Quote Link to post
DBUTCH 0 Posted May 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 yes the air comes out of the breech are they easy to replace seals on the b.s.a and if so where would i get seals is there any good stockists sells these parts? thanks for the help. Quote Link to post
garfield 23 Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 a breach seal is only an o-ring at best mate any good gunshop should have a few lying around and they only cost a pence but check your barrel incase you have one up the spout aswell Quote Link to post

Max4345 0 Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 This happened to my mate, easily sorted (I've forgotten what he did sorry lol), but it's a good idea to make sure you have jammed up the barrel with too many pellets before you noticed the problem, and if theres multiple pellets in the barrel you'll need a rod to fish them out Quote Link to post
