    In regards to HDR .50 power upgrades this is the most valuable/helpful video on TH-cam. You should edit the title to include "valve removal" because it took me a long time to find this video (among all that I have downloaded) to remember which one talked us through "removing the valve block."

    First of all, I really want to thank you for putting this video up. 1 point of difference though, I think the firing pin should be secured with threadLocker. There is a tremendous amount of force on those threads, and they will loosen over time and potentially become damaged from the vibrations. Not using thread locker will risk the long-term integrity of the part.

    A slight sugestion. Here at Ramstein AFB we use Tetra Gun (not an endorsement, I just have some at hand) fluoropolyner grease and with your thump if you evenly coat the sliding surfaces of the barrel and action (not the trigger assembly) evenly and lightly not only will your TDR50 cycle like velvet but you may obtain an additional 0.5~1.0 joules and a few extra MPS average velocity due to the extra gas sealing. Don't worry about cold thickening as this grease has a working range of -73°C to 398°C (-100°F to 750°F). Any fluoropolymer of this type will do with the same temperature range and thickness and they also work great on pew-pew and real steel slides also. Use less thick lubricants on finer areas as these greases tend not to migrate into tight areas. With new guns if Glock copper factory grease is used first for about 500 rounds then the other with standard use any wear in the future will be very minimal.
    But beware, Glock Copper makes a horrible mess so use it very sparingly. Unless of course you want everything around you to be copper colored.
    We do this with both our pew-pew's and real steel's at Ramstein-Meisenbach AFB and rarely if ever have we had a seizure due to wear. Lack of lube is a different matter.
    And always remember! "Once the bullet leaves the barrel there's no calling it back!".

    Hi Dog. Nicely done. What I find very very good is to keep the stock barrel and buy chrome steel balls 12.7mm 8.3g. But you need to tune the magazines. The power is brill. And because the stock barrel is just right for the balls, great accuracy at 10-15 yards. If you like a certain ammo, tune the magazine chambers to that ammo. It makes a hell of a difference. And save £100. So "Heavy Metal" not different size "grippy plastic/silicon". Can send you an example.

      That was the common myth at the time of recording, apparently the chamber inside the 7.5 joule version was slightly larger. I too am in France and my first HDR.50 was an 11 joule version, just managed to get 75 joules (I have a license) out of it using HPA. My HDR.68 (16 joule version) was hitting about 27-30 joules out of the box. A lot depends on what you want, the 68 is a big gun.

    18 joules is about 13 ft/lb. Given that the UK limit on a rifle is 12 ft/lb and 6 ft/lb for a pistol, you'd get in serious trouble possessing one of these because in the eyes of the law it becomes a firearm for which an FAC is required. UK viewers beware, prison is a real possibility.

      There is yet to be anyone go to prison for an overpowered air weapon in the UK. There isnt any room in prison for serious offenders let alone an air pistol enthusiast whos strayed over the line.
      When you say "found in possession of", what scenario are you referring to exactly? Queuing up at a nightclub with it shoved down your pants? Well yeah, you're in trouble. I can't think of any other situation really. "I think my mate at the range has a rifle thats over 16 joules" - not going to cut it in terms of getting a warrant to search your property, which is hard to obtain and requires tonnes of justification and intel. Ballistic testing is usually outsourced and costs thousands to do so, as such it would generally only happen if said gun had been used to commit a serious crime.
      I'm not promoting obtaining illegal power from air weapons, I'm just trying to put some context to it.

    • @angowT
      @angowT 27 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@Luke-h9e well "possession" means just that, it doesn't matter where. Ballistics aren't relevant, it's merely tested on a chronograph. I agree that you are unlikely to be caught with one, but I still wouldn't risk it. I own 3 PCP rifles and regularly test them to ensure they are sub 12. I also own 2 PCP pistols and the same applies at sub 6. You can look up "minimum sentence for possession of a firearm". 5 years is the minimum absent "exceptional circumstances". Whatever the outcome, I wouldn't want my £1500 rifles confiscated.

    ok I did all this but, I'm having a problem with my hdr 50. It's not firing properly the CO2 is in and the pin for the air gauge is popped out. When I pull the trigger it's like I'm firing without air, the ammunition cartridge is turning each time I pull the trigger but it is without the CO2 pressure. Can anyone tell me where to start looking to fix this problem? Thank you in advance

    • @benjaminandersen1097

      just guessing here, but i would approach this in reverse, take a look from the barrel, through the mechanics, all the way back to the co2 cartridge.
      i.e. you know there is a connection from the co2, the pressure is building up, you have the red "pressure warning stick" popping out, so the problem lies beyond there.
      so why it doesnt release the gas when triggered? i cant say, but search in reverse, maybe something with the "restrictor" part

      I'm sure in standard form the gun will fire whatever you can fit in it, the heavier the projectile the more power you will need to get it up to speed. As for drilling the export valve, I have also done that mod, there is a video of that with the results.

    Hello! Thanks for your amazing videos. I have a question that I cannot solve. I want to buy Umarex HDR 50 11 joules for home protection. But I want to make this revolver more powerful. I watched a lot of videos, but I didn’t fully understand which of the options for increasing power is the most optimal? A revolver is needed specifically for home defense, and not for training or entertainment. I beg you, tell me a real way to increase the power of HDR 50.

      most places where airguns have no limit and only require you to be 18 to buy them have severe restrictions on real firearms, you may be able to buy them with a "sports" use permit, but a carry permit is difficult or impossible, carrying an airgun even would also for a defensive purpose be illegal in most places!
      and although you are allowed to defend yourself, doing so even in your home with a legally owned firearm you need to be extremely careful to not end up serving a long prison sentence for it, your really need to be facing certain death and be able to prove it! your word that someone came at you with a knife might not cut it, actual stab wounds might be required to convince a court of law!
      a non lethal option might be better if it is capable of actually stopping someone but either way it will be a gamble!
      of course different countries have slight variations...
      imo a fully automatic high round pr second hpa driven bb gun with a 1000 round plus magazine might also be better for stopping an intruder than a 6 shot paintball gun... regular 68 cal paintball guns on a field are around 13 joules, so even if you double that you just might make an intruder really angry with 6 shots.
      a steady continuous stream of a 1000 plus 0.177 steel bbs to the face i think would be a better deterrent!
      but if you absolutely want this revolver then a 13c hpa tank conversion using 12.7 mm steel ballbearing balls would probably give the best result... hpa can easily be tuned to much higher pressure than co2, but then might become lethal at some point if you hit someone in the right/wrong place.
      edit: there is also the hdr68, a 16 joule 68cal 5 shot version.
      but i assume they are the same gun as the 50cal 6 shot 11 joule with just a bigger bore and the same potential for tuning and power.
      and im not sure but i think the 50cal might "hurt" more as the projectile travels faster and impacts on a smaller area, assuming they can be tuned to the same joule...

    I might just go for the 11j version. Yes, it is more expensive, but with my hands containing 5 thumbs each, I know I will screw it up. Don't get me wrong, it's a great idea if you have the 7.5j version, and you do make the change look easy, but, going back to my hands of thumbs, easy or not, it will be a big challenge for me. Besides, increasing the joules by that much, and I'm only guessing here, it could change it from a non-lethal gun to a lethal gun. For those of us who don't want to kill an intruder and face court time, it might be best not to do the conversion. Just saying. Great video.

    • @Maddogairguns

      If you get the 11 joules version, you can just remove the valve block restriction for an extra 3-4joules. That is really easy, no need to mess with the springs in the trigger mechanism. Just split the case, take out the block and put i back together again.
