danny boi 0 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 just borrowed myself a cleaning kit and wundered why i couldnt put the rod in the end of the barrel on closer inspection there is a pellet lodged in the very end of the barrel! any ideas? ive thought of trying from the breech end and it looks as if i can remove the bolt its just held in with an allen bolt would i be safe to do this or could i damage the gun by taking the bolt out? cheers dan Quote Link to post
moxy 617 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Just use the cleaning rods to push the lodged pellet out. Then give the barrel a good clean. Job done Quote Link to post

It would be like trying to eat soup with chopsticks!! There isnt enough clearence at the breach to get a rod down the barrel. It can really only be done from the other end of the barrel and push the pellet back towards the breach. As the gun is a pcp not a break barrel. Quote Link to post
