That's good news.... kinda. I sure have had my share of poppet issues and it would be good to get a poppet that would seal at low pressure.

I still use a simple jig to flatten and smooth the sealing face of a newly machined poppet or an OEM one that isn’t sealing properly:

Well, I just had my first phone con with DAR and Ryan answered...he then relayed my call to warranty repair and no one answered...so I called the operator and she relayed my question and I received an e-mail from MIKE right away asking if I wanted a replacement or a refund. I responded that I would like the rifle repaired but if replacing is an option I would be ok with that.
That was 11:05 AM PST.

No response yet so now I'll re-group over the weekend and may just contact them again Monday with a very different response.

Once bitten, twice shy as they say.

And, by the way, Ryan answered on their Customer Service line.

I would not read to much into that as Mike has been there all along. Be neat to see an organization chart....lol.

I'm very happy with my DARs right now, I bought a second .25 today and I am hoping to make a slug gun from it. I do really like the way they are made, simple, easy to break down, accurate and comfortable. I'm going to stay the course...

Reconditioned ? Private party sale ?

No trick at all if he bought the one in the classifieds.... It certainly didn't last long.

Strange thing is my DAR .177 is solid as a Rock ... so far. Others recent experiences make me wonder

i hope my new to granddaughter .177 shows some promise, she wants to challenge her gauntlet to the xstreams

Just imagine 500 people in a room chewing bubble gum to make O-Rings.

Yupper, it popped up and I grabbed it. There may still be a .177 left though.

.177 is gone

LOL John... I was editing the .25 out when I noticed the .177 got gone so I just sent the whole shebang to the archive.
Looks like both bought very well. And the seller gets to buy his new compressor.

Dan your GTA profile is updating.... I had a similar issue a few years back on another forum and even the site owner could do nothing...never did figure that one out.

My .25 DAR is still holding air but I am expecting it to go flat at any moment

, maybe we need to get 1 company to source these from , I might jump over to a large Portland Oregon O ring place and see if I can come up with replacement set for the whole gun , maybe have them match the original pack of o rings that came with the gun with a better size for the tiny reg o ring , the one in the back up pack does not work just leaks !

I had to set up a second profile in my browser to be able to log in to gta , my original personal profile in the browser says I have been banned every time I have tried to log in to GTA , I can get on AGN or any other site I have normally logged in to , its just GTA that does this now after I ran IPVANISH ...even if I have IPVANISH turned off now ,and clear history it still says I am banned

,

I wonder how many people have had this happened ,and thought they were really banned ,and just gave up on GTA , and went else where , this is what it says when I try to log in on my personal profile browser setting that I have always used ... GTA page reads =

" Sorry Dan H, you are banned from using this forum!
This ban is not set to expire. "

pretty crazy ! so for now i will just use the profile 2 i set up on my browser I guess for just gta and never use this profile 2 when running IPVANISH , I like running it because it blocks big tech tracking/adds junk ! I really don't like them tracking me ,and jamming adds down my throat with items I search for ... I use IPVANISH on my TV with amazon 4k fire stick with apps with massive content to watch , troypoint.com covers how to do this step by step {side load apps you normally cant }, and now after doing this I canceled DIRICTV ... NO more plus 100 buck bills coming from DTV !

and I have 1000's of more times the content of Directv or xfinity ... motor trend and klowd tv apps is all I pay for 70 bucks a year for those ,the rest of the apps I run are free no charge apps ...

so. I have had very little time to play but I shot ten shots quickly, today, at 31 yards (just where I sit on the steps to the target...no other reason) and came up with these two 5 shot groups for the first of a bunch of shooting to follow in the coming weeks. all the shots averaged right at 831FPS with an S.D. of 9 not including the first shot which was at 850.

There was a little puff variable wind, not much at all.
This DAR .25 had held air quite well, but clearly has a little regulator creep as demonstrated by the first shot velocity...but the impact seemed similar...soo.... The rifle had been charged fully for three weeks when I took these shots.
I will keep posting as I go, which will not be SUPER often as life and other projects are also in my to-do queue.

I'll post one picture of one of my other projects

nervoustrigger · « **Reply #819 on:** March 27, 2021, 08:09:11 PM »

Just a friendly note, the first shot being 20fps fast suggests you can back off the hammer spring a smidge and get more shots per fill.
