Ruger Air Hawk II Elite Replacement Parts

[Dee Brown]

Hey all...I've got a Ruger Air Hawk Elite II that I need to replace the entire trigger assembly on.  I' not easily finding one online and I'm hopeful someone here can steer me in the right direction--or tell me if such an animal even exists. If the assembly isn't available as a whole component, could anyone refer me to an exploded view of the assembly?  I found a coupled that diagram the Chinese Mods (Diane, To5 To6) but I'd like to go back to as close to factory originall as I can.

Thanks for your help!

I believe that I have a parts diagram on another computer...I will see.
However........
Umarex does NOT support these rifles with regard to parts...not even a breech seal........
A policy I neither understand nor embrace....
I have converted several gas ram rifles to spring due to unavailability of replacement rams.

See if this helps..

I purchased a few RAHE2 (Ruger AirHawk Elite II) refurbs for ~$50. They were ~$99 new at the time. This is a "cheap" but decent entry level breakbarrel rifle powered by a gas spring.
My refurbs shot well but really did need some trigger mods.

I suspect that parts like a new trigger assembly will be difficult to find and if available the cost will be high. Probably about the same as what I paid for a complete functional factory refurb.

I noticed a similarity between the RAHE2 and the newer Umarex AIREM2 rifles so when the AIREM2 went on an Amazon clearance sale for ~$50 (new, not refurb) I could not resist and ordered one. They seem to be IDENTICAL RIFLES except for the little round stick-on badge on the stock. The RAHE2 carries the "RUGER" logo while the AIREM2 caries the "UMAREX" logo (BOTH made by Umarex of course).

Since the AIREM2 is newer you may find better availability for parts (and rifles) using the Umarex AIREM2 as your search criteria.

Do you really need a NEW trigger assembly or can you repair the old one?


Side note:
Pretty certain the Umarex TNT gas spring has a longer throw than the Crosman NP1-NP2 gas springs so converting the RAHE2 or AIREM2 to use NPx gas springs will NOT WORK. Converting the Umarex rifles to use coil springs will certainly work but I do not have all the dimensions available at this time to suggest which coil spring to use.

I recently converted a dead AHEII to spring.
Not complicated......Got a spring, made delrin guide & top hat, SS thrust washers,polished spring ends, lubed, tarred and re-assembled.
It shoots...........

I used a Vortek spring:     120 Wire Spring 749 OD spring   749120-xx
Not sure of the length; I believe it was max......

The air hawk is a clone of the Diana 34 as is the Xsisco XS25. You might call Mike Mellick at Flying Dragon Air Rifles and see if he can help.

Air Hawk Elite II a totally different kettle of fish......

 Yup note the safety in the trigger guard vs thumb safety, ,,,

That is true!

Can't hurt to try.

For those that are curious and want a headache ;-P   ...

AirHawk-BlackHawk-Diana34-XisicoXS25 and a few other Umarex/Ruger variants (Torq, SurgeXT, Impact, Targis, SilentHawk) may differ by appearance but are basically all the same rifle action. All these variants have some T0? clone type trigger catching a piston with a center post latch. I have almost all the listed variants and have no regrets acquiring them.

Umarex "muddied the water" by using old names on many newer rifles built on a very B19-like platform using a Gamo-Crosman-like trigger catching a side latch piston. Umarex used modifier terms "Max" and "Elite" for many of these rifles to differentiate them from earlier models. Unfortunately for their marketing folks there already WAS a "BlackHawk Elite" and an "AirHawk Elite" based on the XS25 platform so they had to rename some versions to "Elite II" or "Max Elite" so we could be even more confused

In most cases Umarex/Ruger air rifles with "Max Elite", or "Elite II" in their names are basically enhanced B19s using a TNT gas spring.
