I posted this previously in the tanks, pumps, compressors forum, but haven’t gotten a response. So, I will ask here, does anyone know where I can order piston rings for an Autoins compressor?

Bivy,
Thought to respond to original post but waited to see if anyone could help. Your query is not uncommon, shows up couple times a month. Water-less, oil-less, rectangular box, tri-power compressor owners noting lack of rebuild part availability. STKO, a YouTube airgun contributor, posted a video a year ago alleging a conspiracy by manufacturers in order to promote new sales over rebuilds. Some owners have rebuilt with parts scrounged at local hardware stores; repairs are short-lived. Suspect the truth of the matter is after 20-25 hours of reasonable use, this style of HPA compressor is near the end of a useful life. WM

Thanks to all respondents. I was able to find a new cylinder assembly for this unit. It will suffice until I can afford a much better compressor. Fortunately I do have a battery powered pump as a backup. I will look into a GX.

Funny thing, I just realized my battery powered compressor is a GX
I will definitely be picking up the CS2!
