Update

Found the source of all my problems. The reason I couldn't get the guns to fill to max, was because my tank was a bit low. After use, the pressure was only at 2900psi.

What confused ...

Thought I'd catch everyone up.

I just returned the rifle, since that's what they preferred. They sent me a new rifle and now it holds pressure forever, it seems. I have left it sitting for weeks, ...

Looks like I don't have to disassemble anything, for the time being. But I will someday. Smile

I decided to return the rifle, even though it wasn't that bad. I made that decision based on talking to ...

There is no valve or regulator at the fill end of any PCP I know of.

I was referring to the gauge on the end of the hose connected to the scuba tank. I have two gauges, one on the gun and one on t ...

4) yes it's possible to overfill anything if your determined enough to put a concerted effort into killing yourself. Realistically I see no advantage performance wise to exceed the 3000psi working pre ...

I made a typo. It should be 3300 psi (230 bars). But the problem is the same. I'm reading well over 3000 psi on the one guage but maximum on the pistol guage. I cannot reach 2900 psi now. I'll go ...

Updated to correct typo. Tank is 3300 psi, but problem is the same.

When I first filled the gun, about 6 fills ago, it would easily reach 3000, according to the guage on the pistol. It's been fil ...

Updated to correct typo. Pressure in scuba tank is 3300 psi (230 bar).

I have a 3300 PSI tank. When it's filled, they actually put about 10% more in it.

My question is twofold.

1) I have a ...

Where does one get replacement parts for Benjamin Marauder Rifles? I don't see parts listed anywhere.

I was going to attempt to repair a leak, but I think I better try to find a source for o-rin ...

Kind of makes you wonder how they get them in without damaging the o-rings, with all the holes and threads. Maybe that's why I have a leak. Laughing

BTW, I did ask Pyramyd about whether opening it w ...

I have a leak in my Marauder Rifle that I may tackle, assuming I can get the rifle apart, without damaging the cosmetics or losing parts. I know I can get it apart, one way or the other. Very Happy

I was going through my closet and found these two, sitting there unused for decades. Very Happy
