yes, thank you....i did clean the barrel in advance of try firing.... the barrel looks clear and pristine

thank you. I'm brand new to this....as such I hope that my description makes sense. I lever the barrel down to charge the pistol and expose the breach. I then inserted / loaded a .177 pellet (I was gifted one container of pellets with the air pistol and they are marked .177 cal as is the air...

Fantastic information...thank you. I will purchase some ultimox 226 the Beeman has a metal frame....and I did order the ARH seals. i guess i'll have to sand it down to fit? i'm very grateful and will reach out when i receive all the parts and start to get a better handle on what i'm dealing...

I was able to find most of the seals and the .177 projectiles recommended to me by the awesome members of this forum.... for the Beeman 800 and Daisy 717 air pistols . I read so many different posts regarding which oils or products to use. One manual i found online recommended that only...

thank you...i'll look it up. also grateful for the information regarding which pellets to secure and which shop sells them. I purchase a lot from Amazon but i prefer when possible to shop at sellers that oft too often struggle as they support our sports and passions.

thank you all for the kind words and all the help. I'm very grateful

thank you....very appreciative. I will try once again to see if i can salvage this broken part....and i also ordered some new rings. I'l try to update once i receive and install them. i guess one step at a time. I'm very fatigued from the meds so things take me a bit longer.

thank you for taking the time to post all of this information. I will read it carefully and try to do what you have described. is the piece that broke off on the photo i attached of critical importance? if i understand your design, you didn't have to make a similar piece.

interesting article....i wonder if in fact one needs that flange that broke off? not sure what it's function is?

thanks for asking and for the suggestion. I'm not sure if i have the JB Weld but that sure would be easy to source. I cleaned the parts and at first i tried some cyanoacrylate glue...which didn't work so i then tried E6000 glue....which unfortunately also failed. I will try to call the Daisy...

please pardon the glue residue....i tried and failed to repair it....this is the rear sight unit thank you all for the eBay leads on the seals. I live in San Diego. ...curious, is there anything special about the o-rings....is it ok to use some from my harbor freight multipack?

thank you to all. .....i will try to add photos tomorrow. ......I'm not familiar with the process of posting photos but i'll read. good to know about dry firing. the ad posted says out of stock but i will send the seller an email....perhaps he will get more in stock?

thank you I used to shoot competitively long range rifle and competitive/action pistol sports for quite a few years. Some rather significant medical challenges have forced me to make significant life changes. That said, such is life. I miss the shooting sports very much. I'm hoping to...

Hello, this is my first post so i hope it's ok to ask some questions. A very dear friend gifted me 2 air pistols to keep me busy and active during my cancer therapy. It's hard to do a lot of stuff we usually do together. I dry fired the Daisy 717 a few times and it sounded fine... so i then...
