I have adjusted the cocking rod and the pump rod to proper lengths, so far the lug doesn't touch the body and cocks. WOOHOO. After all this the L.P.R. has started leaking from the centre hole on the adjustment knob. . Now I have applied liberal amounts of air oil into my a.s.a. and down the centre shaft of the L.P.R.(ANS L.P.R.) and dry fired to see if the seals would soften up and reseat. No good, question is, are there rebuild kits for these? A generic set of seals from a hardware store? So damn close to working. Oh one other thing, even when I screw out the adjustment knob to the point where there is not enough pressure to cock the gun it still has a slow leak from the L.P.R.

I think those older style ANS LPRs use a schrader style pinvalve in them. You should be able to take the body off of the base (should be 4 setscrews there) and flip the reg seat that the pinvalve seats on. Sounds like you've got a bad seal in there - there's not much to those things.

If there was a rebuild kit for those things, they're long gone - ANS hasn't made a LPR for a LOOONG time. I've got a couple of extra LPR's if you need one, and I'm sure there are others for sale here if you decided to go that route. Try checking out the seals first - they're a nice LPR when they work. I THINK that some Mag seals may work in there.
