Title: Got the Vortek kit installed in the RWS48 and also need some help
Post by: crowpopper on November 22, 2010, 03:24:12 PM
Well i got my rws48 today(new to me anyways, it was an r stamped gun from another forum member)
so i ran a string with it to see numbers these strings were shot using cp's 14.3 grains from walmart and i noticed some fit tighter than others so the spread could be better im sure!!
stock form   and after i installed the  Vortek PG2 kit
831....................854
843....................849
827....................855
841....................854
825....................856
840....................855
845....................853
838....................854
836....................856
832....................856
the numbers after i installed the vortek kit and deburred and lubed were shot over chrony after i shot 5 shots to clear the smoke
now for the questions
i cant cock the gun all the way unless i hold the trigger when the cocking arm is fully extended
do i have to pull trigger befor i install it in the gun?
or is it supposed to be engaged when i reinstall?
i have gun apart now and just need to put bac together so it will cock with out haveing to pull trigger
tomorrow ill do some accuracy testing
but this thing went from a buzzing sound when fired and pretty harsh cycle down to a nice solid Smack from the vortek kit
the cycle is so much smoother and it just plain sweet!!!!

Your best bet would be to give Tom, at Vortek and email. He is usually prompt in answering.
