I recently ordered this suppressor from Wes at AirgunArcheryFun (https://airgunarcheryfun.ca/1-2x20-moderator-us-customers-only-shipped-from-california/) and am testing it on my new Epic Two. Happy with the purchase so far and it is the least expensive unit I found available.

That particular O-ring is difficult and frustrating to get at. When I last worked on my MKII regulator O-rings it was with a pair of Nylon pick tools and the one that worked best was the angled flat tipped unit. It took some time and patience but finally pushing the flat tip behind the O-ring...

I have had my CS-3 for several years now and it just keeps on pumping, although I never allow pressures above 4,000psi. Good to know there is an abundance of head room to these little compressors.

I wonder if that particular piece is only a bearing surface and has nothing to do with pressure. Looking at a similar picture on the Targetforge.net website shows the upper white ring, below the piston top, to have a similar opening...

Have you tried to contact Bill at Targetforge.net with this issue? I am interested to learn what the seal in question should look like.

You could try a neoprene bottle wrap and see if that quiets that perceived 'ping.'

What is the biggest mystery to me has to do with the manufacturers and vendors not making said O-ring sizes known. My guess is their attempt to make additional sales at inflated pricing. GX compressors for example want $9.99 plus shipping for the 'Quick Connector' O-rings (2) and will not...

Looks to be a leak from your pressure gauge. I have had a Sekhmet gauge leak from the face of the gauge before. Having a pressure gauge fail is not unheard of.

Since this discussion is about maintaining the Gx compressors, I wonder if anyone can help me size the O-rings within the fill whip. It seems that the O-rings, there are 2 green O-rings in my Gx CS3-1 fill whip - 1 larger than the other, have broken into several pieces and I am unable to fit...

200 FPE? Really!

So, this is a new gun recently purchased from some vendor? With these kinds of issues and the lack of communication from the vendor you purchased through I would consider returning the rifle. You could also try working with Epic Airguns directly. I just received my Epic Two on Christmas Eve...

What kind of critters and at what distances are you talking about? You have mentioned a back yard, but is that a city back yard or a country back yard?

What barrel and length are you running in your MKII?

The Tuxing compressor I had was good for just over a year and then couldn't make pressure. Purchased several rebuild kits but was unable to get good sealing on the compression fittings after tear-down. For the money and frustration you might be better served considering alternatives. Just my...

I like to shoot 10 Meter from a bench on my patio with a Daisy 853. While my groups tend to vary in size depending on the time of day and my level of activity, the RWS R10s and the Eley tenex in 4.51 & 8.2 grains (when they can be found) seem to shoot much more accurate than anything else I...
