I purchased this LDC from Neil for my Sumatra. It arrived today and due to unforseen differences in air guns, this one does not seat correctly on my Sumatra and pellets are clipping. I suspect it is because the threaded end of the LDC is too short for my rifle. Neil tested it on his Sumatra and it worked fine, so if you want it, please make sure it will fit your air rifle! Neil is making another for me and told me to do with this one what I wanted, so to show my appreciation of Neil's generosity, I am giving this one away to a fellow GTA member.
I have included a picture of my Sumatra Muzzle and a picture of Neil's. You can see the end caps on the air cylinders on my Sumatra are a tad thicker than those on Neil's. When the LDC is snugged down tight, the LDC makes contact with the end cap (see picture of the scratch) which causes the LDC to shift slightly off center, which in-turn is causing the pellets to clip. My Sumatra is the Sam Yang model, not the Seneca model. I don't know which model Neil has, but if your Sumatra has the thinner end caps on the air cylinder then this may work for you.
DISCLAIMER: Per Neil's request, this is being given away "as is" with no warranty or guarantee. If you take it and it doesn't work for you, please don't send it to Neil and ask him to fix it! I will ship it in a USPS Flat Rate box, so I will only ship it within the Continental U.S to keep my cost down. Please PM me if you are interested and believe it will work for you. If you are not 100% sure it will fit your Sumatra, please pass on this and let someone else have it. Thanks...

James (Back_Roads) contacted me first, so I'll be sending it to him. He has said if it doesn't work for him either, he will be passing it along to another member! Thanks James, I hope it does work for you!
