My Izzy 46M repaired

So, my beloved Izzy, was having problems holding air. I called Pyramyd (whom I bought it from in March of this year) and they gave me an RMA number to ship it back for repairs.
They received it yesterday, and I got a call today direct from the Pyramyd airgun smith who worked on it. He explained that Baikal was using some sort of "grease" that was causing all the seals to dry out. They've had a rash of 46M's returned for the same problem. Pyramyd is going to contact Baikal and see if they can't use something different to grease the guns. I told the smith that they're probably using WWII cosmolene, and he chuckled.
The smith explained that he took the gun completely apart, and did a thorough cleaning and degreasing and relubed everything up with pellgun oil. He essentially did a complete tune, and replaced all the seals.
We talked about 15 minutes on the phone, and he told me that Pyramyd now has 5 smiths on board. I told him I was surprised over his call and that they got to my gun so quickly. He went on to explain that warranty work is extremely important to them and gets a priority.
So... I should be getting my Izzy back either tomorrow or hopefully Saturday at the latest. (Fedex delivers on Saturday in my area)
Double thumbs up and 3 hip hip hoorays for Pyramyd!
