I was thinking about doing this to my gamo classic Hunter decades ago using a nitro from a stamping die because no one made a nitro spring at that time.
Carry on what with what your doing lads you will get better with time and practice, and remember everyone thinks they an expert just take on board what your interested in and disregard the negative stuff .
If I can kindly offer some observations?🙂 1. Don't do what Blocketh Outdoors does, lol. 2. Don't test your rifle differently, your first shooting position was from your elbows and your second shooting position was rested low on the bench. You must be consistent in your shooting technique. 3. The spring was not made that way, it was broken from much use. 4. A good steel coiled spring is better than a gas ram, because gas rams are more violent than a steel coiled spring. 5. Always debur your rifle before putting the piston back in. 6. Always clean your piston seal and check to see that it is not gouged.😃👍
There was nothing wrong with the spring tho but some one had put another spring in it in an attempt to make it stronger but I'm fairly sure it was to short to make any noticeable change.
@@springpistonriflefeverlone9611 I had to watch the clip again and yea the spring has snapped you can see it very well just as he pulls it out🤦♂️ and second of all that I totally neglected is the fact that if the spring was whole it would had popped the end piece straight out instead of the boy giving it a slight tug. I have had a few snapping on myself but not in that way tho it has been either in the other end or closer to the middle.
@@michaelwthalman Thanks for commenting ☺️ We have had people who say gas rams are better and people who think springs are better. The Benjamin Vaporizer has a nitro piston and it has very little recoil and vibration compared to a spring break barrel the same size and vice versa
@@WILDBROSSHOW-rm1nr They do tend to shoot smoother. I'm just going from life experience I have Beeman springers from the 80s that still are shooting strong and never had a main spring replacement. The longest lived air piston I have is 8 years and most failed by the 5th year also they didn't give me any warning when they would fail they would just be pulled out of the gun safe with no air in them. If companies like Gamo or Hatsan provided air pistons that could simply be bought from them as parts that would be very helpful. One could just order spare air pistons so one can have them available to put in when they fail that would be helpful. Customer service from most companies are not good. Both have certain advantages, but a "properly" tuned old fashioned steel spring can be very smooth shooting and tend to be better on scopes than air pistons. Velocity gaines are minimal, however it is easier to replace an air piston (if you can get one) than a mainspring.
@@michaelwthalman Old air guns last forever! My grandpa has a Daisy double barrel BB gun that has the original spring. It hasn’t lost any power and has had a lot of rounds thru it. Yes, even trying to find after market pistons is difficult. Thanks for the info! It’s cool to hear other people’s opinions on this!
@@WILDBROSSHOW-rm1nr Yeah, those days are gone! I'm still shooting pumpers as old as 1946 and Sheridan's/Benjamin's from the 70s and they still hit as hard as they did way back in the day. Everything built now is disposable, unless you pay a large price...Sad!
Where did yall find the gas piston for sale and how much was it. I’ve been thinking about swapping mine over on my Gamo Shadow Whisper .177. Did it make a difference with the sound when fired.
The person behind the camera needs to be quiet and let him do the video, it’s very annoying, let him do it himself or he won’t be successful on you tube, give him a chance, camera people work the camera and are quiet, not constantly butting in and interrupting the person in front of the camera, young man, get yourself a stand and film your videos on your own, otherwise not a bad job, just get the other two to stop interrupting you 👍👍👍
Guys next time if you got a runny nose go blow it and dont breath into the camera ;) and for that rifle would i buy a stronger spring for it instead of that gasspirng that most likely lowered the velocity, In USA does that rifle come with a 1200fps spring which is stronger then the ones here in Sweden that has a 900fps one mounted.
Fun video boys. Good on you. And don't worry, all little sisters are pesky wee things. Thank you from New Zealand
Good job guys, you will all only get even better!!
Cool to see you young dudes educating us on airguns. 👍👌👍
Guys the upgrade would be more for power and minor other things.
Future gunsmiths, awesome job.
Dude really picking up the pellets with Twitters all i can say is wow .😂😂😂😂
Dude really calling tweezers twitters…wow 🤦🏻♂️

โอเค How Much เท่าไร

@@LittleSweed Looked broken to me. I have had that happen in several of my springers.

Great learning... Personally, I have been converting air pistons back to steel mainsprings because they will last longer.

Good job fellas 😊

Type in (Custom Air Seals)on Amazon and you should find everything you need
@@WILDBROSSHOW-rm1nr thank ya fellas. Keep shootin, safe shootin
Good job guys!

Younger boy has too much to say
So does the camera person, they both need to be quiet and let him do his video
And kid behide need to let dude do what he doing ever time he say something you got to butt in and blow your nose

yeah, BigTeam, on Gamo stuff
