It would be nice if we could get an exploded view of this rifle in the near future.
Quote from: fishinglakes on July 19, 2018, 04:35:44 PMJust met Ryan at the Aim Sports Office in Ontario, CA, good guy. Invited him to shoot with us this Saturday, he thought he might be able to make it out for some trigger time. They are working on other distribution outlets for Calif. and will have their website devoted to the DAR line of airguns up soon so we can order o-rings, extra magazines, fill-probes and other accessories and parts for the guns.I’m happy with the .25 DAR I got. Did a shot string that impressed me that Ron “Gertrude” posted above. My plan was to tear it down and get a good look at it. But since it is holding air just fine, for now, I think I’ll just shoot it on paper at various distances and figure out the best pellets for it in its current “factory” state. So far, it seems pretty accurate. ONE *(&^ OF A GUN FOR THE MONEY!!!PS. If you want one, you better order it quick from Sportsman’s because Ryan said they will be sold out soon.Sportsman’s Guide has a $40 offcode for orders over $250 right now also, so that brings the price under $250! You need to ask Ryan if they have a parts breakdown he can share with us so we can order parts. I also would like to know if the TP is adjustable like on the Marauder? I ask because there is a setbscrew located right in front of the trigger assembly and when I was reassembling mine after replacing the regulator o-Rings I wanted to ensure everything was good and tight, so I snugger everything down including that one. Well, once it was all back together and all aired up to 3000psi and I went to shoot, all I got was the click of the trigger and the slap of the hammer against the poppet valve. No air released! Baffled, I removed the stock, remembered that little set screw was not all the way tightened down, so I loosened it a few turns. I put it back to tether and all work fine. In fact better than fine, before all the work to replace the o-rings CPUM 10.5 Pellets were shooting at an average 735 fps, afterwards they were shooting at an average of 903 fps, which leads me to think that may be an adjustment for the TP and I turned it open a bit further than where it was set from the factory. But, I would like to confirm this theory.

I got a chance to stretch my DAR177 out a bit more today.Heres two 5 shot groups from 50 yds with the 2 best of my very limited .177 pellet selection. This rifle definitely likes the heavier pellets.

Paul, that little set screw that u noticed if screwed in to far will block the hammer from hitting the valve stem.. not real sure of its actual purpose.Just something i noticed last time i was tinkering.
They really sealed mine up great, I think I could probably let it set for a long time with no leakage now. The DAR air tube really is a good airtube because the only part of iit that could have a burr are the threads on either end and the vent hole. The vent hole on mine is smooth on the inside and orings slide right by it without a hitch.
For those of you that want to change your regulator output I made a picture. I think the three different calibers might possible all have different hammer springs too but I could be wrong. I've never actually had the entire regulator apart but it's not something I really wanted to do just yet, it would be nice to know what all makes them tick.
