Marked regulator for factory set. Any guesses on CW or CCW for increase in pressure set point??
Crown has SPA's signature rustic appearance with some bonus scoring on the lands, a spin on the lath is in order.
Very good, thanks for reporting back so quickly.That looks like the type which moves the valve seat to change the setpoint so back out the brass screw to increase the setpoint or drive it in to reduce the setpoint.Backed out the set screw CCW 1 turn appears to have raised the set point, but raised fps very little even with stiffer spring. I suspect the transfer port is choking it, not certain strategy to open it up.What a shame they continue to ruin otherwise good barrels. Both of my long-barreled SPA guns (CR600W/Plinkster and CP2/Chaser) had the rifling damage but neither of my short barrels (CP1 and PP700S-A) had it. All 4 had crowns that appeared to be done with a dull drill bit running in reverse.It would be better if SPA just de-burred it with a die grinder ball than smearing the lands. I turned off 3./16" then recrowned both endes with brass screw and polish.
Is the regulator externally adjustable, or do you have to disassemble the gun? Kinda hard to tell from the pictures... Also, who did you order from? Hopefully, if they got theirs, Wes will be getting his shipment soon...No on external adjustment. De-gas, unscrew air tube off regulator assembly and there it is very smooth operating. I like it better than the PP700 while external is difficult to operate. Ordered from Mundilar Airguns, Portugal. Arrived 3 days after placed order, shipping is steep.
Curious to know if the regulator can be removed and .........what MAX power can be achieved.Reg appears to be removable, but I have not disassembled that far... So far peak power with heavy spring and 1 CCW on the reg peaked at 10.3 FPE, there is a lot of exploring left and certainly not the MAX, that will take a while and more than just my efforts.

So, do you think there's a chance to get her to 20 FPE ?
