At least no gas leaks at all. I finally blasted a few pellets, for kinda real at a heavy can half filled with screws or something. Not the damage I hoped for but ok. The trigger went limp a few times and I needed to fool with the charger slide. It had a couple good runs thou. I just spread some lithium grease around under the sideplate and it seems good. A barrel hex screw is there but the barrel looks like its very thick with no way to move it. As to a teardown, I don't have a great record and often can't get the last.01% after seemingly doing well

Just keep plugging away, grateful to be on the outside of this thing. With the links etc. I figure out the barrel does move and a little rod moves back and forth to hold the pivot that fell out when loosening set screw. The pivot pellet hole was beat up and burr-ey. I cleaned it up and set a .025 +/- gap. I used a rod to line up the pivot if that is happening assuming some leeway with the one set screw. I think there are two on some models. It hand cycles very smoothly now. I fired a few today and had to remove beat up and stuck pellets in the pivot. This seemed to keep it out of battery and wouldnt fire. It did shoot a few in a row and I think will be better now.

I think you mean to say you set the barrel to give a feed arm gap of .0025 rather than .025? The fact that you have only one setscrew holding the arm in place will not affect its function (short-term anyway), note that it sets into a divot in the cam rod - the second screw is only there to lock the first one against loosening in use.

You are correct, Sir, .0025. A cam rod, gonna remember that. If this goes with improved function, I will locktite it. I saw and used the divot and glad it was locked in place from rotation.

I'd be cautious with loctite. You might need to disassemble it to clear a jam. I have once or twice over a few thousand pellets.

Its nice to know it can come apart, It seems strange that it doesnt open enough to knock a deformed pellet out. I probably will use some blue on it. There is my heatgun that sealed it up, extremely nicely, if needed.

Well I am concerned on the health of my heatgun. Yesterday I went thru a few half mag loads with no failures at all. I left her uncharged and not in the cold. I wanted to put a couple drops in and it dumped the whole,new, cartridge out the barrel. I did not cock it it first and when I did, after another heat treatment it appears fine again. Is this a big reason to cock before charging?

In my limited experience... yes.
Mine dumped cart after cart when I got it.
But being the head strong duff that I am I kept oiling a fresh cart and trying again.
Eventually she came around. I
must
cock it before inserting a new oiled cart, and it only feeds wad-cutters consistently.
But that is good enough for me.

Well I forgot the lesson and had only a tiny leak. More importantly, I see there is two set screws on the pivot. I thought a second one would be locking in the main one from a ninety degree angle. WRONG. Its good now. Gun works great and got my blow-by down by 75%. Serious power now and my first PA order in before Tues. YAY German pellets and Happy New Year

Oh yeah works great :'( :'(.. So my 600 was charged from a couple days ago but was empty when testing, today. I drew down on the basement target and got nothing. A new cartridge began moderately leaking from the cap. I guess an O ring let go due to recent and ongoing freezing figuring this new gun out. I have several new rings and hope its the large one. It did shoot a very small 2 shot group

My cap didnt want to come apart too easily so I just cleaned some junk around it and the thread grits that look like it kept the cap from fully seating. A new cartridge seems tight but will check and report in a day or 2 lol

Not sure where all my new dirt came from but my cap seems all pressurized and waiting for, weekend, club opening. Some neighbors hate the place from a mile away and the club bigshots are total fascists who would go ballistic shooting on a closed range with a bb gun.

I wasted precious gas again going to range.The thing was totally gasless. Does anyone know how to get my cap apart? I managed the spring clip and the screw in at the piercer but see no way to get this apart to get the small ring. The main oring did need replacement so its back together now and charged and quiet.

Hi Rocky,
You don't need to remove the spring clip, just the retainer. You may already know this by now?....
Just pry out (or dig out if it's completely oxidized) the old o-ring and replace with a new 005. I use cast urethane in 70D. A little more money but I'll spend the nickel.
Use some light-weight oil (e.g. 20wt ND) when you install the new o-ring and keep it oiled periodically for proper maintenance - hth

Another weekend coming up and it looks like success after 3 or 4 failed attempts. My cap doesnt want to move which is good and, unlike me, in that position.

My pistol held strong and seemed to be functioning but the new Miester klunker pellets immediately jammed by half coming out the loading hole. I loaded her up with some heavy Gamo semi domed pellets for another test. Only 8 now (pellets)

I found a new package of Crosman 14.3 Premiers. Its a new look at WM but the domed hollow point is definitely the pellet for this. Both the new look and old cycle perfectly. I never considered these but see it mentioned in a search
