NX-100 Polaris leaking oil
I bought a Polaris last month and a lot of oil leaked from the back of the breech and i think there was some power loss (i only have 13 meters range,couldn't tell if there was power loss).I sent the gun to precihole and they say they repaired it and sent it back and now its leaking oil again.I contacted them and they said some oil leak will happen,is it true?

Re: NX-100 Polaris leaking oil
Any new gun is over-oiled and will leak some oil initially. Is this issue continuing? By "back of the breech" I assume you mean the place where pellets go in.
Try about 100 shots and see.
My ARs leak oil a bit every time I oil them. They also diesel for about 10-20 shots, depending on how careless I have been with the oil.

It takes a new AR about 200 shots to settle down - Have patience

Re: NX-100 Polaris leaking oil
Not sure where exactly you experience the leakage. But I occasionally have some oil seepage in the trigger... And it is normal as per the NX100 manual

It throws oil out after every shot.As advised I'll shoot the gun more.

Re: NX-100 Polaris leaking oil
My bad. Well, I normally don't have problems of leakage at that point, but try shooting about 500 odd pellets and if the problems still persist, contact Precihole. From comments on other posts here, they seem to be pretty prompt in complaint resolution.
Cheers!
