Ok. Just added some oil and no real difference.needs oil in the cylinder
it is a SSP or multi pump issue
and a few drops
i have a FAS that i hadn't use for some time no nothing on the pump 2-3 drops of oil and back to normal
But .... it seems to shoot just fine.
Now that I think of it, this started after I added oil (for the first time ... gun is practically new) and ran several dozen pellets through it, then put it away for a week.
Before today it was always a bit stiff to open and took some real effort to pump 3 times. Also noticed a tiny "squeak" each time I closed the top.
Now it's a lot easier & smoother to open, and 3 pumps is noticeably easier. And no more "squeak".
I suspect this is how it's actually supposed to be?
