Pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air guns are highly regarded for their advanced technology, accuracy, and ease of use. Proper maintenance is essential to ensure their longevity and optimal performance.
It's not just a good idea; it's necessary to keep some air inside your PCP air gun at all times. The pressurized air is a safeguard that maintains the integrity of the seals and prevents moisture from entering the system. Neglecting this can lead to corrosion and damage, potentially compromising the performance of your air gun.
While PCP air guns do not require frequent lubrication, it's necessary to ensure the proper function of the air gun's seals. Most parts are pre-lubricated at the factory to last for years.
When it comes to lubrication, quality matters. Use only high-grade silicone lubricants, such as Hill Pump Silicone Grease, RWS Chamber Lube, or Crosman Silicone Chamber Oil. These are designed to maintain the seals of your PCP air gun, ensuring their proper function and longevity. Apply these lubricants to the fill-probe O-rings about once a year.
Exercise caution when applying lubricants. It's crucial to avoid getting any oil into the air chamber of your PCP air gun, as this can lead to damage and significantly impact its performance. Stick to the recommended lubrication points to ensure the best care for your air gun.
PCP barrels should be cleaned as little as possible. Only clean the barrel when you notice accuracy problems.
When cleaning is necessary, use a bore-safe cleaner like JOB Non-Embedding Bore Cleaning Compound to avoid damaging the barrel.
By following these maintenance tips, you can ensure that your PCP air gun remains in excellent condition and continues to provide a high level of performance for years to come.
