Shimming the valve spring on the Hatsan Gladius and Chronograph test 08 09 18

This video shows how to increase the power of the valve spring in order to tune the Hatsan Gladius. When opening up the transfer port for better air flow it increases the power. By increasing the tension on the valve spring this count acts that effect and allows you to bring the rifle to the correct muzzle energy by increasing the tension on the hammer spring. The video shows the shimming of the valve spring and the follow up chronograph tests as the rifle is tuned. The cylinder will be used as a spare cylinder, as a new one on order will then be tuned and fitted with a Robert Lane Mk9 regulator.

My new brocock bantam sniper was erratic just like that , and that was with the Huma regulator in ... Took it back too the shop ( too be honest , unless you have a Chrono too test your equipment you wouldn't know the difference down range , well up too 30 yrs as was ) turns out it was a " sticking hammer spring " ( or something like that ) it's ok now I think , just gorra test it extensively ) love your shows , real down too earth ( and for want of a better phrase ) a working blokes channel ...

I put a huma regulator in a coyote took me 4 weeks to get right now its perfect its in 177 I get 10.9to 11 lb with 8.64g field target trophy and 11.2 to 11.4 in jsb heavys but the field target trophy are so accurate at long distances I was surprised but my coyote also loves jsb heavys and hades and accupells but the accupells are only on 10.6 to 10 .7 lbs but also very accurate

if your using a regulator, then the big o ring has to come off so the cylinder can breath

[@lesterkirby3367]

That going to make it worse put the washer be tween spring and end cap other wise tke valve shaft to short when hammer hits it .
that wode be the way i go no massing with hammer spring ajusting .

Usles mode. DO NOT LOST YOUR TIME! This will DECREASE the power of the rifle! I alredy try this. For more power U need to change the pring with soft one.

[@lucapalermo29]

Its true 👌 the Hummer will work more easy if spring is more soft its mathematics!!!!

[@erasmoalaniz]

What size was the washer?

[@netanskizelensky9940]

hatsan air cylinder has bad quality.try to put a regulator in it and several months you will notice a swell near the portion where regulator is placed.i got an at44 tank and its no good.
