Ricky-N.p.p 0 Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 sounds like its deiseling mate, this is caused by axcess oil getting into the barrel, also its not a good idea to be firing it without a pellet in it ! Quote Link to post

countrycommando89 7 Posted July 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 i meant what can dieseling do to the gun. i never shoot a gun without a pellet i just was wondering whether it had anything to do with the cheap pellets he was using.(SMK again) Quote Link to post
Ricky-N.p.p 0 Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 once the oil diesels it becomes a sticky oil/tar and causes power lost to air guns. Quote Link to post
ferret king 0 Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 haha :glare: no sorry mate couldnt resist but seriousley if the dieseling is bad it will destroy the gun Quote Link to post
countrycommando89 7 Posted July 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 its not much cop anyway. iv told him to send it back wherever he got it as it hasnt been looked after by whomever originally had it. think he is investing in a gamo 1000. he had a go of my s400 yesterday and was drooling all over it. its a bit better than his smk b2 Quote Link to post
