    Benjamin New SAM-rod... problems/questions

    I just bought a brand new SAM-rod. I shoot A LOT of small varmints (i.e. mice), and occasionally rat or squirrel size ones. The semi-automatic function of a known/established domestic brand, particularly of the notoriety of the Marauder, was attractive to me for the frequent follow-up shots on...

    N/A 3/8-24 foster QD fill nozzle??

    Update.... Umarex sent me the replacement and it fit perfectly. I also took the opportunity to confirm the thread diam. and pitch by purchasing a nut in said thread and it is indeed 3/8-24.

    N/A 3/8-24 foster QD fill nozzle??

    I certainly shared your skepticism and that's why I bought several of each of the common sizes. None of them are even close to fitting or matching the thread pitch, including the 10mm. The 10mm was over 0.020" larger in diameter than this one. Worth noting, 3/8-24 it is actually a fairly common...

    No worries, I very much appreciate your willingness to even attempt to assist.(y) The 1st, 2-3mm of the thread is relieved and with a prominent smoothing radius as one would expect for a seal mating arrangement. Its peciliar as there is no seal seat or material in the regulator where this...

    N/A 3/8-24 foster QD fill nozzle??

    FWIW, I did reach out to Umarex today after I posted and they are going to send me the part number that it shows in their system. I was advised that I could purchase more if it fits but I would still like to know of a manufacturer or retailer who carries a higher quality one. To be honest, this...

    N/A 3/8-24 foster QD fill nozzle??

    Very fair questions. I'm a hobby Machinist and actually put a thread pitch gauge on it and measured the diameter. I have examples of all of the common ones and none of them measure out similarly nor even come close to fitting. It clearly seems to be 3/8 - 24. This is the OE fill port for a .25...

    N/A 3/8-24 foster QD fill nozzle??

    Hi folks. Does anyone know an airgun retailer or other reputable source who carries a male thread, 3/8-24 x 8mm foster-type fill nozzle? Most appear to be 1/8 NPT, 1/8 BSP, or 10mm threads. Of course mine is this...:rolleyes:

    Umarex fill nozzle identification?

    Point of clarification, this is a male quick-connect nozzle. Would this be a 1/8 BSP?

    Umarex fill nozzle identification?

    Hi folks, My first post here as a guy transitioning to air propulsion from powder. A result of being under the influence of YouTube videos showing the tremendously popular undertaking of night time, air gun rat shooting in europe. I had no idea that such a thing, was, well, a thing! Under that...
