I know I need to degass first by loosing the filler port..
Thank you in advance

Are you talking about taking the valve and bottle off the gun or just taking the bottle off the valve?

 

[TOBRYAN]

I was told TSA at the airport my want to check the inside of the bottle. So just taking the bottle off the gun in front of the airport folks if asked. thanks!

I've never taken just the bottle off so I'm afraid I can't help much on that. As far as I'm aware though it just threads on the valve but like I said I've never had to take mine off.

I wonder if i need to remove the brass screw on top to remove the bottle

 

[dizzums]

its been awhile but if i remember right it took a strap wrench to break it loose, aaand maybe i had to pull the valve block out with it first .. i degassed it with the gauge i think ... the brass plug is just the blowout valve has nothing to do with it ..

I will try this once i degass, just dont want a crap show at the southwest desk in Orlando...thanks!!

There's a woketube i mean youtube vid on Benjamin kratos disassemble and parts. It shows the bottle removed but theres a somthing still in the neck of the bottle. But that part looks to have 2 flat spots to fit a wrench to maybe remove / unthread it from the bottle neck.. then you can maybe have a open neck to inspect the inside of the bottle. If theres a carbon mod tank im sure that has to be removed and installed on one as well ( youd think , right?)

The brass screw is the burst disk location. You don't need to remove it .

Airguns of Idaho has some videos on the Kratos you might be able to contact him and find a solution.
