Beware of youngsters selling Gamo rifles...LOL.
Not a member of GTA, for sure. Using PBA ammo???
PUMPING the barrel, after it's already cocked...HeeHee.
Too funny...somebody needs to tell him to pump it 17 times with the left hand and 14 times with the right hand....just to do it right. :P
Seal in that one is destined to become toast.
Oh well, I've seen and heard a lot of experimenting since I've been involved in airguns. Folks are gonna try crazy things. Makes for funny videos...but sure takes a chance on destroying the equipment.
Dooohhhh..........
Happy Dieseling!!!!

man seeinv vids like this makes me glad i only buy from reputable people lol

What a doof. lol Ya, ez, the pumping was a riot!
But, on the bright side, he is drinking the AG kool-aid and is sure to come around in future years.
Better than on the street / druggin'...etc.

Is that kid RETARDED or what!!! Don't dip into that gene pool!!!

I don't have a YouTube account, but, if I did, I would post a comment on how dangerous this is. Not only damaging to the gun, but the kid has absolutely horrid gun handling manners, especially with a break barrel. I, personally, don't care if he wrecks his piston seal and spring. (Sad, since a Gamo Silver Shadow is a nice gun.) Sooner or later, he's going to seriously hurt himself with a bear trap. Videos like these are the biggest downfall of YouTube. If you click on the running video, it will take you right there. Notice that, about the third down on the right, is how to make exploding pellets. I wonder if Neanderthal Man had YouTube?

RedFeather, I just put up a comment of my own, under "PinkOld."
I hope he reads his comments periodically, 'cause he is headed for something potentially far worse than just a wrecked Gamo Silver Shadow.
I know that JMan and Jake both certainly know better!

What a jackwad! Too bad his parents are going to have to pay for a new gun/repairs/doctor bills. Joel.

Looks like the boy could benefit from a membership on GTA, along with a bit of supervision!

I think a good ^&* whoopin would be best, first, followed by supervision. Who knows what other dangerous and even possibly illegal stuff he and his friends might be doing with their air rifle(s)

True, what a waste of what was once a nice Gamo.

And to think that kids like that are our future!!

And we work to prevent the very situation that he thinks is so "cool".

Its been said, "Ignorance can be remedied, but stupidity is forever!"
Another "cool" thing that this kid should try is self-castration. That would keep him from reproducing and passing along his genes. Perhaps that the dirty trick that his parents passed along to him through their genes. Seems like their concept of supervision is: "Here junior, go play with your BB gun."

That's what I was thinking as well. He seems to know the terminology but lacks the knowledge of the damage he may do to himself or the rifle.

My 9yr old wanted to clean up her guns the other day. I went up and grabbed the gun bag with all the stuff and came back down to see her where i left her - in front of the tv. I asked if she'd changed her mind, but she simply stated that she couldn't get the guns out unless I was supervising her. She's also self-appointed herself our "range safety officer", keeping a steely eye out for eye protection and down range danger. I'd like to think I'm teaching her well and being a good role model, but I'd rather think that she's growing her own common sense! I try to remember these blossomings of hope while we fight with homework and chores..

Yes very stupid! there's some repair work for the airgun tuners anyway ;)
-
Saw that video....looks like the kid don`t know much about airguns....the repeated co cking of the barrel to increase the pellet`s speed for one thing. He probably found out about the "Dieseling thing" and thought that`s one way to increase the pellet`s speed. Yep...as mentioned above....he needs some knowledgable airgunner to show him the ropes.
-
Guess he'll keep the tuners in business with act's of stupidity like this. Nothing worse then seen one of the good Gamo's getting abused this way. :( Ed

AHHHHH the ignorance of youth! I remember back in the day putting penn reel lube in one of my guns. Then about 3 days later completely rebuilding it. New seals, clean, bebur, clean again, lube then reassemble. My frist tune. The gun was all new again. Come to think of it that was my Hunter when it was a Nitro piston. I wonder if thats why the NP started to act irractic. I was doing it to increase velocity. Had 8.4 gr JSB's cooking over 1100 fps. But cost me the internals of the gun. I thought it was sealing better, didnt realize it was actually causing an explosin in the chamber. Not worth it.

Stupid is as stupid does.
Oh well...
But, better than riding a motorcycle without a helmet IMHO...
