The one that blows air befor the downstroke.
Since P.A. is sending a new one I got brave and looked at the innerds
of the broken one using the guide on another blog.
Lo and behold a spring was not in place.
I pushed it in place, lubed some places that pull down on the air release
valve and it WORKS.
Using Silver Arrow pels at 24 feet, the distance I can get on the back porch I can easliy get 5 shot groups under 3/4"
Phenominal for a $30 buck snple pump pnuematic.
I'm impressed.
I might be able to use this at night in g-friends pond to harvest some of the large bullfrog that are a delicacy.
I imagine a brainer shot is required to anchor them in place.

yeah buddy.
Any trigger time is a good time.
P.A. is still shipping a new one as I should not have had to take apart the 1st one.
I've been with P.A. for near 20 year w/o a complaint.
If the new on enroute is a good one I'll give it to my 15 year old.
Started him at age 5 with airsoft, age 8 with Daisy classic lever b-b gun, 10 with .22 r.f., 12 he had his own AR, now two 9mm handguns, .22 handgun, .45 auto, shoots all my stuff is a safe responsible young man!
Sorry for the boast. Laughing
