So, as you may have read, I use Huma regulators in my air guns, and have experimented with the reg in my .22 Daystate Renegade and have a fairly long post about it on here. I also have one in my .30 FX Bobcat.
Well, after a few thousand shots, the reg started to creep... It would stop the creep after about a 10 bar increase, from 165b to 175b. I discussed this via e-mail with Huub, and he told me that flipping over the Delrin disc usually fixed this issue. I flipped over the disc as he recommended, but the reg continued to creep, and I also think the pressure adjustment screw would slowly turn to a higher pressure setting. I noticed this when I removed the reg after I again had noticed the creep, and saw that it was set somewhere above 175b, when I had set it to 165b on the tape showing reg set pressure. I noticed that the brass colored set screw was very loose, in that I could easily turn it with my finger vice having to use a screwdriver as I had in the past, for this reg and for the two I was experimenting with on my Renegade.
So, I contacted Huub again, and he was going to send me another adjustment screw/valve "needle" so I could replace it myself. These regs are very simple to disassemble and reassemble, so no big deal.
Imagine my surprise when I opened the envelop last evening, and found an entire Huma regulator for my .30 FX Bobcat!
Thanks Huub, I truly appreciate it! If this isn't the best customer service I don't know what is...
