Ordering Nitro Pistons from Crosman ?

[Nomadic Pirate]

I'm planning to order some to have as spares for the future,

I want to get one for the Venom and a few for the Trail NP XL/Walther Talon. I'm planning to get more guns powered by that particular piston.

Is the piston itself the only thing I need to order ? can anyone post a link or product #s of what I need ?

Thanks in advance

Have you already arranged through them to sell to you direct?  Reason I ask is that PA will not even sell those to you but you have to send your gun in to be converted.

I think you can get the directly from crosman right ?

[Hardtail45]

Yes, you can order any part that you need from Crosman including the ram and piston.

So, since I'm completely clueless,...what do I need to order to have ready to install replacements in case a nitro piston fails ?

look up nitro convertions. crossman will sell you all you need-cheap.

Just went through it on a Trail NP22. Go to their site and they have links to their breakdowns, I believe they also have the same here on GTA as a stickie. When you call Crossman it really helps to have the part number, my gas ram was 26.00 and the seal 1.78, shipping was a flat 4.00, took all of 5 minutes and I had it in a week. The gas ram comes as a sealed assembly, it's all you need as a spare, good luck.

These are the part numbers for crosman, If only the ram goes out, just order the ram.

Gas Ram =  BT1500-00-2 , Piston = BT1500-02-100, Back Spring Guide = BT1500-00-1 ,
 Rear Adjust Washer = B22-00-8

So basically all I need to order is a few rams and a bunch of seals right ?

[ShakySarge]

Just the rams and Washers, seals if needed.

A lot of people replace the stock seal with the Maccari Walther Talon-Hunter-Mag-Turkish seal from Air Rifle Headquarters. It fits the XL. The ram for the Venom (part # BT9M22-00-5) is shorter than the ram for the XL.

That is great Crosman will sell those to you direct.  I never saw these parts listed on their site and with PA wanting you to send the gun in I assumed it was not for consumer purchase alone.  I remember the Trail I had when broke apart had a metal solid flat washer and a guide/seating cap it seems like too.  Been so long since I had it I cannot remember.

You can go to Crosman.com and scroll down to the coustomer service area and download just about any manuel and parts diagram for most of their guns.

Thanks, I still have a couple of those maccari seals but I'll buy a few more, thanks for the part # for the Venom Ram,  now I'll need the one for the XL ....anything else ?

I highly recommend Gene's GRS bushing.  It ensures a better fit between the inside of the main piston and the gas ram.  Polish the inside of the main piston. Coat lightly with moly paste on re-assembly. De-burr and polish the inboard side of the shoe of the cocking arm (where it fits in the slot of the main piston).
