Shot my first PCP rifle today and I am hooked. It is a 25 cal airacuda max. Can't wait to tinker with it.

I do quite a bit of gunsmithing on center fired guns. I know where to find parts. But for airguns I don't really know. The impression on a quick search online doesn't look encouraging. Parts are way less available. Are there special places I can go to for airgun parts?

Thanks in advance for your inputs.

Oh thanks. Unfortunately they don't carry airacuda parts, yet. Actually it seems nobody does, except a few parts available in UK. Perhaps it is still too new a product to have parts available.

Until the gun becomes much more popular, there will not be the parts availability as there are
for much more popular guns, such as the FX's.

That's what I thought too. In the meantime, I refrain from making irreversible mods.

Is the regulator not adjustable?

It is, but it requires taking down the air tube. I'm hand pumping so am reluctant to degas. :)

Yeah - I would be too. I don't do that, however and use a 4,500psi carbon tank reservoir.
I used to have 2 of them, but Gordy needed one.

I may do that one day, when the pump handle becomes too heavy. Filling the tank is quite a chore. I have looked in town. Having a shop to fill is like pulling teeth and it costs. Getting a compressor seems way to go.

For now I just hand pump. 3 to 5 pumps a shot starting from 2000psi. People pay gymn membership to do the same hard labor.
