Thank you "Brynybach". Your comment is highly appreciated... Yes, I agree, more videos are needed. Working on some, but "life" keeps interfering with my channel... Regards JB
This is such a great video. I got a PR900W gen 2 regulated recently, and am not too happy with the performance. I'm hoping it will be pretty much the same as this to take apart.
After discussions with Robert, from Lane regulators, and he told me that the original o-rings absorbs air. Thus if your rifle has been pressurized for some time, allow 24-48hr for the o rings to "purge" after you emptied the pressure from the rifle. This should assist in the valve assymbly not being so difficult to remove...
Had that same issue with mine with the gauge. I took it out with pliers the same as you but I got a hole saw the same diameter as the original gauge hole and went all the way through with it. Now I can take the stock off with out removing the gauge
Great video. It’s helped me a lot with installing a lane regulator on this rifle. One question: where did you get the large cocking bolt on your rifle from? I’d love one like that as the supplied bolts are pitiful

I know my rifle in .22 works best around 125 to 130 BAR, it's very consistently accurate,... I'm wondering if I can use a Chronograph to measure the speed at 130 BAR down to 125 BAR then use a spacer behind that vale return spring to gain more tension thus releasing less air per shot & regulating the rifle without buying a regulator ?
Hi there David. Your reasoning behind your plan should work. At least in theory it makes good sense. However I think that it will only "shift" your rifle's "sweet-spot". Currently you know that at 125bar she shoots great. If you change / add the spacer that "sweet-spot" might move up to 170-175 (?? who knows). However as soon as the pressure is below 170, the rifle is again not where she shoots at her best. By installing the regulator you can ask them to set it at 130 or 125 bar. Now every shot from 200bar till 130 bar will be exactly the same !! These PR900's are great little rifles with very good efficiency for the price. According to Mr Robert Lane , from Lane regulators, they are one of the best and most efficient non regulated rifles, and he has work with just about every rifle out there... The investment will be worth the money !! You will then own one of the cheapest, most efficient and accurate little rifles out there !! Regards JB
@@affordableairgunningbyjb6994 I'm actually wanting to lower the shot pressure to about 130 BAR all the way from a full tank starting at 200 BAR soI will try a shorter hammer spring just for fun
I fit a lane regulator last year and the rifle is leaking air. Stripped it down last night completely, but it's still leaking air albeit very slowly. Wondering how I can fix it? Thinking of removing the regulator and replacing original manometer to see if that makes a difference, or whether it's something else?
Hi there. Do you know from where it is leaking...?? There are several O-rings that can cause a leak... To date none of the regulators that I fitted were the cause of leaks. My expensive FX impact being my most "leaking" rifle as it has 30+ o-rings. My Kral was leaking on the valve seal of the piston. My brother's PR900 was leaking from the O-ring inside the filling port or "cylinder end cap". try to find the leak by filling and then holding the rifle to your ears... even a slow leak you might hear. If you cannot, then remove from stock and see if you can take a small brush that you dip in soap water. "Paint" around all the areas where air could escape and look for air bubbles. Hopefully it is an easy fix/ o-ring replacement. If you hear air coming from the barrel tip, you will have to open up again as then it will be the valve.... Please keep me updated...
Hey there, I have been using my dad's old break neck barrel for a while. I what to get a new rifle and was looking at the PR900w. I shoot for fun nothing more but like that pcp is a bit more quiet and can get more shots off. Is there anything about this rifle that you think I should know? Or any advice? Thanks
Hi Marcello. Trust you are well. It seems I have earlier models of the PR900W. They have some feeding issues when using the magazine and also not threaded on the barrel's end to take a after market silencer. These PCP's are as loud , or louder, than a break-neck if not used with a good silencer. (Look in my video how i remove the silencer... not threaded and cannot fit a new/better silencer) . My friend however has a PR900W MK11 in .22 Caliber. He has no feed issues and his is threaded to take a screw on suppressor/silencer. His bolt action is super smooth and it seems Artemis has fixed the problems on the earlier versions. Mr Lane, from Lane regulators, told me that in 30 years of working with PCP's these are one of the most "air efficient" rifles on the market. It has a very small cylinder/tank yet it has a good shot count. They are compact, light, simplistic, not remotely as complex as a FX and accurate enough for most hunting/plinking uses. They are also more affordable than most other brands.... My input: If you are on a budget and looking for great value, then this is good option. With the money you save, up your scope to a "nice" scope with parallax adjustment down to 10 yard. This will greatly improve your overall accuracy !! Hope this helps and happy hunting. Regards JB

@@affordableairgunningbyjb6994 hey JB, hope you well. I went to go check out the PR900W and decided to rather look at other options. I have landed with 2 options, the Artemis M11 and Hatsan Flash. Do you have any opinions or thoughts on these 2? Is 1 brand any better than the other? I'm also not sure if I can attach a bipod to the Artemis.
Will this regulator fit in the PR900W/Diana Stormrider Gen 2 ? And how did you shorten the white "power plenum" soacer ? Or didnt you have to shorten it because you left out the pressure gauge block ?
Hi there. I am not sure if that is the same as mine. As far as i know all PR900W's have the same diameter tube and should fit. Looking at the photos online it looks the same as mine... Regarding the spacer: I never used the pressure gauge and thus did not have to shorten mine by 1.2mm. If I had to ,then I would have used 120-180 grit sandpaper. Put it on a table top, and carefully sanded the spacer. Probably making circular movement whilst pushing equally down on the spacer to ensure if is sanded symmetrically and not at an angle .... Hope this helps. Regards JB
Hi there. Sorry for the late reply. This regulator that I fitted was to reduce mine from 19ft/pound to sub 12ft/pound. The PR900 is great as is and if you want to keep high power, then no need to fit a regulator.....
Hi there Ryan. Trust you are well. Yes I do service them, however logistical it gets complicated.... I live in Langebaan (on the west-coast). This means that the rifle needs to be couriered here and back to you again. Just that already becomes pricy and then the service needs to be added to the overall cost.... I do have a courier that does some jobs in the cape-town area (Western suburbs and Belville at between R125 to R175 one-way.... If It is just a service, and nothing is broken, or needs replacing, then it is R750/service. I will open, strip, clean and reassemble the rifle.Then also re-zero your scope (if fitted). This does not include the valve assembly inside the air-tank. As it is inside the tank they are usually "ok" unless you have shot a lot with the rifle and maybe not always filled with dry air...? If the valve assembly is included then it is R1000 for the service. It might seem a lot compared to what you paid for the PR900, but the whole job takes about 4 hours, if all goes well and just a service.....(even a plumber works at three times that rate....) Many Regards JB
Hello I just found your channel but I bought one myself brand new and for some reason it won't fill with air. What might the problem be? I even tried with a industrial compressor and still not fill. What can I do or what can the problem be?
Hi there AIr MAQ. 1st let me start by asking if you are reffering to a regulator ?? Did you buy a new regulator and fitted it to your rifle, or did you just buy a new PR900W Rifle ?? When you try and fill the rifle, can you hear where the air is escaping ?
@@affordableairgunningbyjb6994 I just bought it new without a regulator and no I haven't heard any air escaping or anything like that. I checked at every spot but the only problem is that it just wont fill with air. Might it be the cylinder under the barrel ? Not the adapter thingy but that cylinder cap thingy?
@@ACE-VENTORA This is a very difficult one ?? If you say that it does not take any air, what are you using to fill the rifle ?? What compressor are you using ... ?? Industrial one ?? Ok, but is the compressor for Scuba Diving tanks ?? Normal industrial compressors are normally rated to 8 Bar max (About 120 psi) pressure. Your Rifle needs 200 bar (3000 psi !!!) ... Very specific compressors you need ??
Hi there L.V-Rider !! Thanks for asking !! No jokes: Broken foot, in cast and need crutches to walk, for 13 weeks now !!! Plan was to start video in November as my last contracting job ended.... Had a accident on my adventure bike end of October and broke my ankle.... Then after about 4-5 weeks, whilst going down stairs my bull terrier pushed me and I fell..... Broke the ankle on a second spot whilst in a cast (almost want to laugh, but it was to painful to laugh !!) Cast should have been removed 2 weeks ago....... again, not joking...... COVID !!! Hopefully this coming week cast will be off. What I can say is that the couple of shots I did take with it had incredible consistency .... the spread in fps was less than any rifle I have.... i think it was max +- 4 fps..... Also that Robert sent me an Pressure gauge for the end of the cylinder. Let us hold thumbs and please allow about 3 weeks MAX for the video ...

Hi there !! My apologies for no update. I have been on crutches for almost 4 months and not capable of producing new videos... I was hoping the cast would be removed last week, but fracture still open and needs 4 more weeks... What I can say was that I shot about 20 shots to allow the regulator to settle and then did ten shots on the chrony .... The consistency was VERY impressive with a +- 4fps spread. This better than my FX impact. As soon as I am off the crutches it will be the 1st video I make.... , but 1st impressions were very satisfying..... Regards JB
Hi there !! This is an older model PR900 and the stock was not a good design . The hole in the stock Is smaller than the pressure gauge. It is only big enough to allow the threaded part of the gauge ... The newer rifles they made the hole bigger so you don't have to remove it to remove the stock... However you must just follow the instructions if you want the see the pressure of the regulator. Remember hat the gauge will now only show the pressure in the regulated part of the rifle..... So beware to use this gauge to fill it. Use the gauge on your refilling station... Regards JB
Hi there. Mine must be 1st generation. My friend has the newer version with smoother bolt action, better feed into the magazine and threaded for a silencer. Plus on his you can remove the stock without having to remove the pressure gauge. Because of this I think his is 2nd generation and mine 1st generation. Regards JB

Hello I just found your channel but I bought one myself brand new and for some reason it won't fill with air. What might the problem be? I even tried with a industrial compressor and still not fill. What can I do or what can the problem be?
Hi there AIr MAQ.
1st let me start by asking if you are reffering to a regulator ?? Did you buy a new regulator and fitted it to your rifle, or did you just buy a new PR900W Rifle ??
When you try and fill the rifle, can you hear where the air is escaping ?
This will give a possible idea of where to start....
@@affordableairgunningbyjb6994 I just bought it new without a regulator and no I haven't heard any air escaping or anything like that. I checked at every spot but the only problem is that it just wont fill with air. Might it be the cylinder under the barrel ? Not the adapter thingy but that cylinder cap thingy?
@@affordableairgunningbyjb6994 where should I begin?
@@ACE-VENTORA This is a very difficult one ?? If you say that it does not take any air, what are you using to fill the rifle ?? What compressor are you using ... ?? Industrial one ?? Ok, but is the compressor for Scuba Diving tanks ?? Normal industrial compressors are normally rated to 8 Bar max (About 120 psi) pressure. Your Rifle needs 200 bar (3000 psi !!!) ... Very specific compressors you need ??
did you ever finalise the figures ??
Hi there. Yes , and blown away with the consistency.

Would love the mod to have a gauge still.

Now follow-up video yet? Something went wrong with the testing?
Hi there L.V-Rider !! Thanks for asking !!
No jokes: Broken foot, in cast and need crutches to walk, for 13 weeks now !!! Plan was to start video in November as my last contracting job ended.... Had a accident on my adventure bike end of October and broke my ankle.... Then after about 4-5 weeks, whilst going down stairs my bull terrier pushed me and I fell..... Broke the ankle on a second spot whilst in a cast (almost want to laugh, but it was to painful to laugh !!) Cast should have been removed 2 weeks ago....... again, not joking...... COVID !!! Hopefully this coming week cast will be off.
What I can say is that the couple of shots I did take with it had incredible consistency .... the spread in fps was less than any rifle I have.... i think it was max +- 4 fps..... Also that Robert sent me an Pressure gauge for the end of the cylinder. Let us hold thumbs and please allow about 3 weeks MAX for the video ...
@@affordableairgunningbyjb6994 Eina Pyn. Ja dit alles kan mens se lewe ontverwerp. Sterkte met die herstel. Ek ry ook bike en is nog gelukkig om geen ongeluk te hê nie. (L.V staan vir lae veld)
Ek wil juis vir my vrou 'n ligter geweertjie koop en kyk mooi na die begroting daarvoor. Die nekbreker wat sy nou het is te swaar vir haar, ek kan sien sy sukkel maar sy wil dit nie erken nie. Die probleem wat ek met die PR900 het is juis dat dit nie gereguleer is nie en hoog en laag sal skiet soos die druk verander, dit is hoekom ek opgesoek het oor 'n reguleerder daarvoor en op jou video afgekom het. Ja die Kral Puncher is sterker en reeds met 'n reguleerder (dink ek), maar die gewig is weereens 'n probleem, dit is hoekom ek nie verder daarna gekyk het nie. En ook 2x die prys.
Hoeveel het die reguleerder jou gekos met alle vervoer en invoer koste ingesluit?
Groete.
@@L.V-RiderDagsê Laevelder !! Dis darm my 1st val in 38 jaar se "BAIE" ry so ek is happy !! Die PR900 is verseker die geweer vir n dame of kind !! Die wapen het verbeteringe gekry sedert ek myne gekoop het, maar hulle is uit en uit die geld werd. Volgens Robert Lane is dit van die mees "air efficient" gewere wat gemaak word..... in die "non regulated" mark.
Die Kral is BAIE swaar en skiet nie veel harder nie... Net meer skote omdat hy 2 x meer lug het. Ek sal gaan kyk wat kos die regulator, maar hulle is so 70 pond.... Robert het die vit my gegee om die video mee te maak....
Gee my so dag of 2 , ek nou oppad om xstarle te laat neem. Ek dink ek het ligemente geskeur op my gebreekte voet.... Moet nie eers vra hoe dit moontlik is nie... voet steeds in gips...
Groete Tuis
what is the final result after reg?
Hi there !!
My apologies for no update. I have been on crutches for almost 4 months and not capable of producing new videos... I was hoping the cast would be removed last week, but fracture still open and needs 4 more weeks...
What I can say was that I shot about 20 shots to allow the regulator to settle and then did ten shots on the chrony ....
The consistency was VERY impressive with a +- 4fps spread. This better than my FX impact.
As soon as I am off the crutches it will be the 1st video I make.... , but 1st impressions were very satisfying.....

Why did u remove barometer ?
Hi there !!
This is an older model PR900 and the stock was not a good design . The hole in the stock Is smaller than the pressure gauge. It is only big enough to allow the threaded part of the gauge ... The newer rifles they made the hole bigger so you don't have to remove it to remove the stock...
However you must just follow the instructions if you want the see the pressure of the regulator.
Remember hat the gauge will now only show the pressure in the regulated part of the rifle..... So beware to use this gauge to fill it. Use the gauge on your refilling station...
Regards JB
Is this PR900W 2nd Generation?
Hi there. Mine must be 1st generation. My friend has the newer version with smoother bolt action, better feed into the magazine and threaded for a silencer. Plus on his you can remove the stock without having to remove the pressure gauge.
Because of this I think his is 2nd generation and mine 1st generation.

Does it comes with regulator or we have to buy it
Hi there. You must buy it online from Lane Regulators in the UK....

for god's sake don't use grease. it was everywhere! 🤣
Hi There naplam. That is silicone grease and highly recommended by most manufactures to use on the o-rings.... Every regulator you buy, or o-ring service kit comes with a packet of this grease.....
