I purchased the .177 a month or so ago and Joe went thru it and replaced all the pressure side o rings and poppet. He also sent me 3 o ring kits for the other 3 Dars I have. Have not had the need to contact them recently so not sure can get in touch with them if no one else can. I really like mine. Actually had an issue with finish coming off one of the stocks and Joe sent me a new one. He is a great guy to deal with.

I spoke with Joe a few weeks back about a .177 (momma needs to approve it first) and he said they were selling well and had parts.

I'll post his numbers again once I get home to my PC.

Guys
Here is the "O" ring sizes that were sent to me several weeks ago, by Joe?
I have both the 17 & 22 caliber DAR's Gen II rifles
I don't know which "O" ring package fit's what's caliber, as the packages were not marked,

17 cal ?,
1.- 1.50 x 2.8mm (thickness + I/S diameter) = 1 each unless noted other amounts,
2. -1.55 x 4.50mm
3.- 1.55 x 11.00mm
4.- 2.5 x 21.00mm x (2 - O rings)

22 cal ?
1. - 1.55 x 2.8mm (thickness + I/S diameter) = 1 each unless noted other amounts,
2. - 1.55 x 5.50mm = (barrel "O" ring for bolt/probe sealing)
3. - 1.55 x 9.10mm
4. - 2.00 x 14.00mm x (2 - O rings)
5. - 2.50 x 21.00mm x (2 - O rings)

Guys
I tried to measure these "O" rings as accurately as possible.

I would order 1 size larger & smaller I/S diameter, that way you have all bases covered etc.
some of the measurements did not fit the metric sizes exactly,
so I went with the closest metric available from the "O" Ring Store charts.

If someone tears their rifle down, I hope they note where each "O" ring goes etc,
and posts the info for all of us..

Barrel "O" ring seal on the bolt probe,
The size that is in my DAR 22 cal barrel, is as follows,
Thickness/CS = .061"
Inside diameter = .216"
Outside diameter = .270"
No AS size can be found to fit above.

This "O" Ring is metric, Metric size would be =
1.5mm X 5.5mm ID
0.059" CS X 0.217" ID

Thanks for that Don.

I just wish for an exploded diagram showing the parts in logical order,
I have the "O" rings, but don't want to dismantle both my guns,
as there is ALWAYS a hidden problem area etc.

Both of my rifles have leaks.........

Thanks,
Don

Joe and company should have o ring kits for these guns now , with all the problems with o rings they had you would think they would of fast tracked o ring kits for these guns , he told me a while back they would be available , I called him left a message , and never received a call back so maybe it's time to try again , I want to get a couple kit's for each DAR gun I have .22 ,and the .25 ...

Matt... you might ask Gertrude (Ron) and see if him or Steve knows.

I had though about asking Ron if he would be interested in resealing doing some trigger work and tuning it for me.

avator · « **Reply #1110 on:** July 31, 2021, 07:01:26 AM »

Ask Don how he likes his that Ron and Steve tinkered on...

That was a virtually new, out of the box gun when he got it from me.
I promise you, I hadn't even cleaned the barrel. I was that happy with it. I can't even imagine how good it is now.

I posted this in the Xisico fan club also. Mostly looking at .177 or .22 this time around.

Hi guys, I'm new to PCP rifles and looking into Xisico 705's and the DAR's. I haven't decided on a caliber yet, for my first one, but I see several of you have both. My question is do you have a brand preference and what caliber did you choose and why?
TIA
Jerry

Definitely .22 but either gun will serve you well.

I saw you guys starting on DAR but I had to run.... bottom line, is it worth it?

Back_Roads · « **Reply #1115 on:** August 27, 2021, 08:05:16 PM »

I can vouch for my gen2 .177 DAR would buy over a mrod, also have a .177 mrod,I only have an earlier version of the Sentry .22, I bought new as is, took some tinkering to up the power that I was after, and a few hiccups along the way but now is a solid gun also.

On mags alone, there is no dicscussion. DAR on the left and Gauntlet on the right (same mag as the mrod).
The DAR mags straight load, no flipping or winding, just push a pellet in and turn far enough for the next one and so on...

Thanks for your input David.

Ed24 · « **Reply #1119 on:** August 28, 2021, 01:29:41 AM »

I would have to agree with David on the mags.... I have a few different guns and the mags on the Dar are better quality than my FX mags. They are simple and just work. I love my 177 Dar and is my go to rifle when pesting around my house. Its accurate, quiet without a moderator and when you do put one on its stupid quiet. Mine loves the fx 13gr and have taken 50 + ground squirrels with it!
