IHP PCP Pistol cylinder cant hold pressure

Post by ChaitanyaS » Sun Jul 06, 2014 7:03 pm

I spent the last three hours trying to fill up my IHP PCP Pistol cylinder with a Hill Pump. I am able to successfully fill up the cylinder to the required pressure. But when I try to disconnect the pump from the cylinder by opening the bleed valve on the pump, the cylinder depressurizes completely. It is not holding air.

This is the first time I am using my pistol. I havent fired a single round from it.

Any ideas how to rectify this ? Or is the pistol a goner already ?

Thank you.

i got mine yesterday as well.. had trouble cocking it.. fiddled around to make it work.
haven't filled it yet as it came filled up...

maybe you need to twist the connector near the pistol cylinder as it will seal off the opening before you unscrew the bleed valve...

surprisingly not many have responded on the IHP PCP Pistol.. makes me think there aren't many in circulation...
