Here is a few pictures of my new QB78 deluxe from airgunsource.com. Sure is nice to have an adjustable trigger, lol, compared to the 1322. I really like it, came with a really greased up barrel, but after I cleaned it out it started shooting of each hole groups, (only 8 yards lol, but I'm happy anyway [emoji4]). After shooting it awhile, and changing the port seal for a 1322 seal, I decided to try out hpa, so I drilled a blind hole in the end cap and tapped it, then drilled on an angle on the inside to miss the co2 needle, then put a tee fitting in with a one way quick connect and Asa to connect my 88g cartridge. Doesn't look great but balances nice. Now I need an ssg and a lighter hammer to get a nice curve. Probably should have just enjoyed the co2 for the summer and did the mods in the fall, but I seem to have to mess with things lol. I can still use co2 so all good. ImageImageImage

I don't care for the looks of the cartridge, will probably buy a hpa tube for it eventually

...or reduce flow at the t/p.

I had tried the 13-XX seal at the port and it tended to blow out around 1175 psi. YMMV depending on the factory built tolerances of your gun...

You picked a reasonable location for the bottle. Don't often see that.

Get that bad boy outside with a scope! They have good capabilities for what they are. I like 12 ga hulls at 25 yds sitting with the a/r and jsb heavies.

Yeah! Will have to, for sure, looking forward to getting out shooting with it. I never thought about the seal blowing out. I guess I could put the old seal back in and try it with hpa, see if it evens it out. With my 1322, I just used the rva with a lighter spring to find a nice curve up and down at the fps I wanted. Figured if I could do the same with this one with the added benefits of the ssg that would give me more consistent shots.
