just a side note, I actually stock the seal kits for the nightmares at my website.

Thanks,

Not only will that help me but a lot of others as well. Surely they are not original rebuild kits are they? If so I may have to pick up several.

I've been out of the loop for a long time, so forgive me but, where the hell did you get those!? lol.

I am awaiting his reply as well, but I am assuming that they are not original, but instead just remakes.

lets just say i got lucky on matching up parts from another air gun that is in production that had the same style valve internals. I have just rebuilt one of my nightmare long comps that was way out of service. I used all the seals that are in this kit and it is back to life.

I wouldn't say original, but as close to factory parts as one can get. =) I only have a few until the order comes in with the rest of the seals. I know the order is sitting about a month out, but they for sure still have the parts I need, although I will say they are out of production, so they won't be around for long.

You should make a permanent thread (if possible) in the brass eagle section. I'll be ordering some kits from you as well for my LB and SB.

mcnad, the porting looks great! While I do have reservations about changing anything factory on these things, it's pretty cool that a few of us ain't skeered to do it. I'm working on a few tricks for mine when I get them working again.

Well thanks for the support. I won't lie, I was worried about cutting her up too much but...in the end I think it was well justified.

P.S. I have decided for originalities sake to go with gloss black anno.

Can you pull out the knurled constant air plug and provide pics? Is there a shaft that seals against the pierce pin seal?

mcnad · 04-07-2008, 02:09 PM

There is no shaft touching the piercing pin. The constant air adapter simply sticks out of the bottom of the plug by about an inch or so. This is the part I used for the air supply:

I would provide pics but the gun is being anodized currently. I went with my local guy because I am to impatient and could not wait to get it back. I went with a bright dipped 'gloss black', so for all of you who where worried about originality it will be stock gloss black!
