If you want to increase the speed, several operations must be done: * Increase the diameter of the gas hole with a drill, but very little. So that it dumps out more gas. Or, insert a weaker valve spring. Then it will also dump out more gas. * Mill out some material behind the hammer with, for example, a dremel stone, and thereby get longer and stronger blows with the hammer. * And, replace the hammer spring with a harder one. Then you will probably increase fps by 25-30. Possibly more. But is also a risk. It's a bit of a game of chance.
The trouble is, it's all pot metal and not kind to lend to machining. It can be done but we're not talking massive gains. We're allowed 6lbs in the UK with pistols and most are a kinda "3-4lbs and no good for pest control.
Replace the valve spring with a weaker spring. Enlarge the valve hole. Replace the cartridge with a low power one and drill a 3.6mm hole. 6mmbb has the most power. I'm sorry, my English is not good.
The key to increasing the fps is increasing the air pressure and hammer hitting power.then it will work.of cause if you have professional machine.you can design a new valve and it will work better.but remember if you do not have professional tools i don't recommend modify valve.because i tried before.and its not that easy.according to my experience.after i managed modify umerex and i turn it to a pcp pistol.and now it can work on 20mpa air cylinder.and the hammer has enough force to open the valve.now it works perfect and so powerful.
Hello man love your videos keep em up! I have a question! Im new to airguns. I have only tried guns with weather. Now I wanna buy a gun with CO2. Should I take out the CO2 from the gun when I dont wanna use the gun? and do I need to throw the co2patron away or can I save it for later?
@@HappyDude1 if you use it up a bunch through out the day will it just get super slow like 100 fps and that’s when you take it out or is there a specific number when you take it out
ALWAYS USE UP THE GASS IN THE CILLINDER AND TAKE IT OUT, never leave them in full or empty it will ruin you seals inside the gun, and it helps to put a drop of PELLGUN oil on the very top of the c02 and carefully guide it in to the puncher point when ya load them in, good for all the parts inside, but makes for extra cleaning, and OH YEA you godda clean them pretty well due to the LEAD OXIDE inside the c02 if they still do that. i quit buying Crossman because of the lead in the c02
Question please : Will this mod do anything to add tension to a loose and sloppy hammer ? I just bought a new DW 2.5" revolver, and the hammer is so sloppy and loose it feels it could fall right off the $140 gun at any shot. Thanks !
The DW715 shoots at steady 3.6Joules, check out vipervideos review on the gun, he took the barrell out and replaced it by whole new 6in rifeled, but didint do any chrono afterwards. Some dude in finalnd modded dw715 ti shoot .25 cal and add hpa system and 22joules of power
Don’t forget kid, FPS =/= Joule (Power). Just because a BB is faster it doesn’t mean it’s more powerful in comparison to a heavier BB with less FPS. FPS doesn’t really matter. I have .44 cal S&M Magnum 3" airsoft revolver. Meaning 6mm. And I have 0.25g plastic BBs and .90g steel BBs. The 0.25g plastic BBs are way faster than the steel BBs. But the steel bbs with 0.90g do have way more power even though they are slower and lose velocity faster. Tested it against a door. Plastic BBs bounced off, the steel BBs went straight through by a shooting distance of around 7meters. Speed =/= power. It depends on the weight of the projectile.
or can't you just find something that can turn the round brass thing that has like a flat head screw top and a little button in the middle where your hammer hits, that will release more c02 as well, or will that VOID YOUR WARRENTY by opening it up within the 30 days of purchase 🤔 my pellet version shoots steady at 450, but i use 0.35 g aluminum alloy pellets and they FLY LIKE KRAZY. VERY HELPFUL VIDEO bro thank you 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
@@HappyDude1 ok good to kno I figured if u increase the tension of the hammer hitting the valve sooner or later the valve will get damaged.. thanks for responding
Thanks alot, for having showed this "spring thing " , which I never thought that it was logical. How come the hammer would have some kind of effect on the projectile??? Totally illogical! Let's put this "logic" to a firearm. In what manner does hitting faster or harder the primer of a bullet would have whatever effect on the powder explosion ??? Nooooootttt!!!! 😄 Hahaha! Anyhow. 2 thumbs up 👍 👍!
Indeed, the idea with gas is when you hit the valve harder it opens up more and more gas goes trough and you get more fps. But it allready opens up completely so it doesn't matter how hard you hit it. Unless there is a weak spring in it from the factory. If you want more FPS you need more pressure
Dont be stupid....if course its logical.....stronger the spring means the hammer hits harder....allowing the valve to stay open longer allowing more co2 into it....think before talking shite .
@@HappyDude1 more likely that the valve even if fully opened by the hammer striking it does not have the volume inside it to hold enough gas to push the BB any faster, and I can tell you now that it don't! power as in ft,ps comes down to gas presser, valve gas flow, and valve overlap timing!, if the gas valve has little capacity, or presser, or under timed, you won't get power, if the gas valve is over timed, you waste gas! but with a little mod done to the valve you can get a little more out of it! but at a cost of using more Co2 up with every shot, so you need to balance the tension of the hammer spring with its striking ability to fully open the valve, and that is all it needs to do! smacking it like a sledgehammer is not needed. and you can improve the gas valve capacity but not very much, however it dose improve the power.
Does your pistol have a 4.5mm barrel that opens into a larger 6mm barrel 'shroud'? I've heard that these 6 inchers have only 2.5" of effective rifled barrel. That could be the reason why the hammer spring mod did not work. We well know that releasing more CO2 won't work after a certain point considering the barrel length is kept fixed.
no, in Britain as long as your pistol cannot go above 6 ft,lbs that's legal, but not many Co2 pistols can get anywhere near that power, but some can, however if you get nicked with one they are not just called a firearm, they are a part 5 firearm, and that means,,, lot's and lot's of holiday time in nick!, I pushed a Crossman pistol up to 9.5 ft,lbs once! being very naughty just to try it out to see if I could do it, and I could! but it's back down to 5,7 ft,lbs now!
sorry dude but you must be blind for not to see with the use of a chrono that you do actually get more out of it, this is a modification that i done myself along with other things on the very same gun and i can guarantee that on this gun you can get a cosiderate increase amount of power
You need to do a theory test and practical then you need lessons and training. And a doctor needs to see if your not crazy and a clean record. I have that btw
@@HappyDude1 You’re welcome and thank you. Curious to know if you did anything to increase the power? When you fired the Dan Wesson in the other video it sounded different. The 5 Joules of energy, how do I get that?
