Do you have airguns sitting in limbo (in need of repair)?

[KWK]

A basket full of Crosman co2 pistols and an armload of Crosman co2 rifles. I used to buy them up if the price was right. Several BSA prewar in waiting. I'm bored with them for now. And my work schedule seemingly never stops. One thing about self employed is there is nobody to fill in if you want to have a day off. I work alone. Sick days? I don't get sick. I might get a few days free this month. Some will be bass and walleye or trout fishing. Less than 2 years and I go part time.

It drives me crazy to have nice rifles that aren't functioning properly. But sometimes life and work get in the way. Sometimes it's just a minor issue though and I try to wait until the off season to fix it. Gotta have something to do when the wind chill is -50.

I got new O-rings in the front end of my P35-25 this morning. Now the tracking of pressure over time starts to be sure I "fixed" it. It was only loosing 50 bar or a bit less per day so it will take a few days to know. One of the three O-rings I replaced seemed to be hard so I'm hoping I got it.

So if we assume I fixed this rifle all mine are fully functional, for now.

I have a .25 Cal Evanix Cloud Ultra with a leak that I haven't gotten around to sealing yet (almost a year now) also an AEA Challenger Bullpup in .457 that won't cock and hold the sear....

I have the parts to build a 2240. Just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Whenever I order a new airgun, I always go to the schematics and place orders for spare o-rings for future repairs. Eventually, they all leak (PCPs'). Having parts availability and good customer service is what I also look for. You're right about the Paradigm/Evol line being easy to work on. Actually, all the guns I listed are pretty easy to work on. I've worked on all of them before so no surprises.

How do you store spare parts and keep up with which parts belong to which gun? Are you organized?

I'm not that organized but I do know where everything is at. For spare parts, I place them inside the box the gun came in. O-rings are in separate boxes. I need one of those tray organizers to make it easier to identify.
