Searching shows many conflicting stories and how tos on this system. Can i just use the same screw location as factory drilled and tapped to accept a magnim air screw? Also im reading about swapping valve stems to a disco one when using a hipac. To think its supposed to be plug in play well maybe with the right precautions
Has anyone used these to convert a 22xx to bulk fill CO2? I was thinking about getting a custom shop 2400 with 14 or 18 inch barrel. It seemed adding a hipac and maybe 1 extension would be a good way to turn it into bulk fill CO2 as I have all the filling equipment.I am curious about the seals these use. Looking on the website I see hipac seals that just look like some sort of flat disk. Where do these go? Are you supposed to drill a whole and use at the end of the valve to deal with the higher pressures? If so, it would seem like the stock seal on the end of the valve would work fine for CO2. Also what other seals are in the unit? How does it seal to the tube? There must be some seals in the filling end. Are the seals in these problematic?Gerard's comments about the quality worries me somewhat. With anything holding pressure I want to be sure it is made of good material and adequate QC. Is QC or general quality of the machining etc a problem with these?A more detailed website would really help prospective customers. Not much detail there.
Well if looks are a concern, and I understand how that goes (got my share of pretty airguns) perhaps look into the TSS option - Twin Spring System. By using a larger and a smaller spring and having a gap between the back of the hammer and one of the springs, you can adjust such that the spring with the gap acts in a similar way to the dynamics of the SSG, interfering with the hammer's rearward progress and reducing or eliminating rebound. You might be able to completely contain a TSS in that carbine, though it could take some hammer modification to fit the secondary spring, and of course the hammer is case hardened, so requires grinding to modify it.
