looking to replace the o-ring on my Air Wolfs probe....where is a good place to order from?
Good source for o-rings?

I've seen people recommend "theoringstore" online and others. If you know exactly what the size is and which material you need then there are many options, even your local Ace Hardware may have it.
Just this week I had a pack of Viton o-rings show up from Amazon to redo the breech seal on a NP2 break-barrel I acquired. Fit perfect. It was a 25-pack and I only needed one, but for $5 shipped to my door I can't complain.

I just got a complete set from a website called Captain O-Ring. Looks like they have just about everything. I've been told the quality is good, but I have not used them yet.
I pasted a link to their website, they also sell on E-Bay and Amazon.

oringsandmore.com for me. They have the one you need, or they'll get it quick. Prices seem good to me for a hobbiest with no buying power. They ship pretty quick and pretty darn cheap. Three orders with them so far here. I'm sure I'll keep going back. Good to hear other options too though.

I recommend "O Rings and More" (http://www.oringsandmore.com/). I received a shipment today for my Royale 400, about a 10-life-time supply for $20. Just pull up a parts drawing of your rifle that has the O ring sizes, and find each size on the "O Rings" web site as you fill out your order. Great service, received them in 3 days.

O ring store for me. Their minimum ordering quantity is smaller. If you are not sure about the needed O ring size so you need to buy several sizes to try out, this will be a plus . I have already got a lot of useless O rings in the box and I really hate to stack up more.

I just reviewed their web site. In addition to having a lower minimum order than O Rings and More, their site is a little easier to navigate. I've receive excellent service from O Rings and More, but I think I'll try The O Ring Store next time. As you, I have a surplus of O rings, some for rifles I don't own anymore, so a smaller order would be nice.

Captain O-Ring is expensive because they package for specific jobs like rebuilding a rifle. O Rings and More and The O-Ring Store are more adapted to bulk orders, which is a bit cheaper in the long run if you use lots of o-rings, which I seem to use a lot.
Advice, get a complete list of all the O-Rings you need, make an order from one of the two locations and don't scrimp on the numbers. Get 25 or 50 of each size so when you foul one up, you've got plenty of spares. The Rings are relatively cheap, so having a bunch on hand is a nice insurance policy.

I have used both The Oring Store and Orings and more and like both. The Oring Store is a little easier to navigate for me, great customer support, stocks Urethane Orings but has a flat rate shipping which for a small order makes it a little expensive. Orings and More has free shipping at $15 and a very good selection.

Might I add that while the specific size of the o-ring is important, it is also equally important when determining which material that the o-ring is made out of. There is quite a wide difference between various rubbers.

TRP is a great site for O-Rings. They have a wide range of sizes available including a helpful guide of measuring FFKM rubber O-Rings. I have ordered from them before and they are very high quality and have a fantastic turn-around time of 48 hours!
