Tuning Need re-seal of UMAREX RWS C225 and Walther CP88

[timberwolf]

I have one each of UMAREX RWS C225 and Walther CP88 CO2 pistols with 6" barrels that I shot maybe 12 times each. Put them away several years ago, and now the seals leak immediately upon installing cartridges (discharging the CO2 thru the barrels). The leaking seals are not the cartridge seals, but are the chamber firing pin seals. Have tried applying pel gun lube into the chambers, buy that's not been successful. These guns are too nice to just "junk" (at least in my opinion). Does anyone know who could reseal these two nice CO2 pistols?

Thanks in advance

Hello Try contacting Rich of Precision Pellet in in New Park PA (717) 382-1481I have had several guns resealed by him(co2 and spring) and work and prices are great. In fact he had just finished resealing my Hy score 815 and is in the mail to me now. Hope this helps Eric

Thanks, Eric! I'll sure give it a shot. These are really nice pistols, but the chamber and valves/seals are buried in them. It looks to me like complete disassembly of the guns is required to get to the chamber/seals.I have a couple of Walther CP99's that are much more maintenance friendly. Those have the chamber/valves part of the CO2 cartridge holder which drop from the handle for re-loading...easily accessible for re-sealing. Of course, neither of those have ever needed re-sealing
