Hello All
About Myself...
Been in the Army, been a marksman and a sniper, taken part in a few competitions, spent my entire youth in the firing ranges

. Suffer from acute Tinkeritis (cannot stop myself from tinkering with any weapons i can lay my hands on). Currently have access to a large number of precision match rifles like the Feinwerkbau 700, Walther LG 300xt, Anschuts, and Pistols. New to the Forum Scene, Joined when i saw "Indians For Guns"

when looking for tips on restoring my IHP Cadet co2, and correcting my Walther Lg 300xt cocking handle problem and Low FPS problem in my Styer LP2 pistol and to meet Gun fanatics like me
Styer LP2 gives me very low FPS, opened it up, cleaned it, checked all O rings etc, everything fine, pcp cyl holding air correctly and to pressure... but the pistol gives around 350 fps... Any suggestions, before i pack it off to a service centre.

Dear Anand, Welcome to IFG.
Did you check to see
1. If there's any leakage from velocity screw area ? (using soap water)
2. If that screw is broken ?
3. Does the air come out of muzzle during dry fire ?
I had similar issues with my 20-year old FWB P34 and it showed similar symptoms.

Hello airgun_novice, Nothing of that sort. No leakage. Loosened the small set screw that locks it on the right side and pushed the velocity screw retainer as far inside as it can go
now it is real tight. Ran out of air before i could crono it. Tomorrow is the last try.
