I have been looking around for a place to order a new seal from without having to get a money order and send it to Beeman. I think I found the seal used in these rifles ( RS2, Silver Kodiak X2, Grizzly, etc. ) but I only have the picture to go on. It doesn't list the China licensed Beemans, but it looks JUST like the seal ( except blue ) so I wonder if anyone can confirm that these would fit?

These are the models listed by PA to be compatible, but I don't know if they're omitting the lesser expensive Sportsman series because they're just licensed Beeman china guns, or if it won't fit them.
Fits Beeman GS950, Beeman S1, Beeman Falcon1 , Falcon2, FX-1, FX-2 and GS600/700/1000 models
I figured the easy thing to do would be to back-reference it against those models, but I can't find any information on them either.

Yeah that's the first place I looked, but their big red text about "If it's not listed, we don't have it or it's not in stock," didn't make me think they were open to inquiries.

Shoot Mr. Maccari an email. He may have a seal that will work or he doesn't. It won't hurt to ask.
If he doesn't have the seal maybe Mike Melick can help.

I'm thinking the RS2 is just an AR1000 if I recall right.
I still have one more piston with the original seal on it from the Black Ops. (Same thing as the RS2 but no dovetails and not a swappable barrel)
That PA seal does take the same type screw. I'd gamble on it knowing that I'd have a 33% chance it was a drop in.
There's also a 33% chance it needs resized to fit. Then another 33% chance it's to small.
So you have a 66% chance it will work.
;D

Thanks! The AR1000 clue helped.
I found a blog post saying that the Norica Marvic uses the same seal as the TF-89, which I know is interchangeable with the RS2. Well they also go on to say the Marvic's is interchangeable with a Beeman GS1000, which is listed on PA as compatible with that seal. Custom Air Seals also lists a 26mm one for the Norica Marvic, so that makes two places online to get one for the RS2/Silver Kodiak X2 line.
Only took a few hours on Google... :P

I'd a just took the 66% chance before spending hours on Google.
