    Seems that I'm having to stretch out my pistons O-Ring every 3 months as the FPS drops from 330 down to 250 -_-

      It's got the original O-Ring that came with the SHS Piston Head.. What brands would be good, if any?

      https://airlab.parts/collections/gearbox-parts/products/airlab-piston-head-o-ring?variant=739258679 It's more about the material than the brand. Just a good, correctly sized Viton one should be fine. Worth also thinking about why it's stretching - is your lube degrading the rubber for example?

      It's shrinking every 3 months so I end up having to stretch it out - I put the o-ring around the outside of an old cylinder and heat it up with a lighter. I'll grab another o-ring and see if that sorts it

    My VFC has been chronoing at 150fps for a few weeks now and finally got around to open it up again (sadly wasn't able to before the NAE). Stretched the piston head's O-Ring, re-lubed the cylinder and voila back to 330fps!

    Of course, at chrono today Gun1 was firing at only 150fps. Gun2's motor then borked before lunch. Gun3 is an AM-016 with DSG set up for pre-cocking. Of course, battery was too powerful when fully charged which made it not shoot, then double shoot on semi. FINALLY, now I'm home, Gun1 is at 300fps again, Gun2's motor has been cleaned and lubed, and Gun3 is FIRING PERFECTLY. What is this madness?

      Performance Jitters. All guns get it from time to time; usually at the most inconvenient times.

      Guns are female - mind of their own that we will never fully understand

      Also some are very high maintenance and some are really cheap old ones that have been used & abused a fair bit - ok enough sexism I guess - yes dear I'm just about to do the ironing petal....

    Well, no new toys for me for a while. Just been stiffed by a cyclist on the road, he caused £500 worth of damages (parts alone) to my motorcycle, plus won't be able to work for a while due to injuries in knee. Yay. /s
