Other Reximex RP trouble

[GMW]

Anyone having trouble with Reximex RP not holding it's air pressure? Also: Anyone have a source for decent open sights that coule be
adapted to the RP without modifications to the gun? The stock sights are the next best thing to worthless. Using a red dot now and the
gun shoots quite well.

I am using a Romeo5 and I really like it, I think it's going to stay that way. The open sights are not the best for past 15 yards.

If you bought it from PA send it back, I sent two Rexs back before I got a no leaker, It was on PA money and they did it with a smile, LOL..
If not I heard of a guy by the name of Hammer that works on the Reximex guns, Just ask around for him all I can tell you..

Thanks Mike56. I did return it and got a good one. PA service is excellent, no problem at all getting a return. They even took the time to call me and chat about it. I'm still looking to upgrade the factory open sights if you have any suggestions.

Occasionally mine has leaked. I take the cylinder off and grease a little.
Fill it up and no leak. Screw it back on the next day. A week or two later
it might do it again? ?

Unfortunately it comes with the territory of a pcp owner. Soapy water or leak detection liquid. I find it rewarding to take them apart and see how they work and fix them. I had a few affordable guns I would frequently disassemble and reassemble for modifications, that really helped me with all my future PCPs.
It’s not a matter of if, it’s when. Even with the most expensive rifles.

Wished I had your talent, I can take things apart just putting them back together is the problem , If I have a good video I will sometimes attempt it..
My hats off to you guys..

First time I disassemble a rifle i take a picture before I remove each part. Usually don't need them but when you do it is helpful. Hardest part is figuring out which screws hold what parts on the gun. Only real fine detail are trigger assemblies. They can be a pain.

Yup I do this. I also lay everything down in order so it looks like a schematic.
Unfortunately Reximex doesn’t provide them as well as other manufacturers. It’s one good thing Snowpeak has going.

Always takes me a while to mentally convert that 2D printed image into the 3D image in front of me. I like that parts list and wished more did that too.

Took my intermittently leaking rpa apart the other night to see what makes it tick.
Nothing noticeable but have to do again , this time replacing o rings.

actually I found a parts list and diagram for the reximex rp on pyramid air and it even had prices for the parts..it was really hard to find, don't know if I can find it again.. but apparently pyramid air sells pretty much all the parts, some you have to buy a assembly, like the regulator,or sights..
