I just purchased a used HP Varmint 25 caliber and it stopped shooting after 10 shots. I followed your instructions and sure enough the valve pin had broken in a few pieces! Easy process to change after watching this video. Thanks Terry!😊
These videos are pure gold - for a few reasons. I'm new to airguns but I am very familiar with firearms; that said, I like to work, clean, and get to know the gun. These videos give me the resources to learn and gain confidence to purchase an airgun with the knowledge that I can clean and repair it. I wouldn't want to buy a gun I couldn't repair or at least disassemble/assemble myself. With these videos I am now in the market to buy more - and AEA looks like my "next level" airgun. Many thanks for these videos. Best to you, Mark in Colorado.
Awesome video,TERRY!! You are very to the point and great step by step. I have my first AEA HP I traded with a friend and am at much greater at ease since watching this video...THANKS so much!!
Just watched your valve pin change out video had no clue how to degas my varmint just want to say thank you for the information video you put out kinda got left hangin again thank you!!!
Thanks,Terry.I got the HP standard custom .25 cal.MIKEY,likes!!! All the video's that i am seeing,on how to maintain,GREAT...when will we be able to purchase spare parts and o-rings???as a DIY and PREPPER having parts on hand are a must have part of the plan.VALVE PINS,O-RINGS (breech seal),spare fill prob..any information...i'am liking how user can maintain..keep up the good work.MICHAEL,out.
excellent video. i hope it is some time before i need to do this but mine came with a spare and i understand it will break eventually// i feel pretty confident i can do it myself after watching this, thanks a million for posting this awesome resource
Fast pace, informative, graphically pleasing, just the facts ma'am, and no bullsheet. Liked, subscribed, and rang that bell. Bonus Comment: I would have taken out that fly OTA (with one of those electric fly swatters that look like a tennis racquet). Bah-zaps (electrocutes) any and all winged pests, with the added benefit of instilling in the warrior a sense of accomplishment and feelings of glory. Alas, once again I'm denied a little bit of pleasure. 😥Oh well, for me it is back to the salt mines.
Did AEA change the type of plastic? I noticed the original valve pin in your model is black and the replacements is a tan color . Thanks again Terrry I will fix mine Friday . I appreciate it
Just noticed the bottle's transfer port. Huge! What mm is that? Most airgun manufactures make these small (on purpose??) so power is artificially limited. Nice work by AEA!
You can make replacements out of PEEK. Which is a much stronger plastic than the delrin OEM part. My original broke after less than 300 shots. My replacement is the prototype and it has over 3000 shots and is still going strong. I have a hobby lathe which helps but a drill press will work in a pinch.
are all the valve pins the same on hp guns? how many differnt hammer springs do the differnt hp use what ones are softer and what ones heavier? Are the ports all the same bore ? just wondering what parts other than barrel length what makes some more powerfull? Just bought a .30 assissan cant wait for it to get hear!
Hey terry quick question I got the hp ss carbine 30 cal from you guys awhile back and I had to take the barrel shroud off but when I took the baffles out I lost track of how many there are supposed to be in there… so how many baffles and the little thin washers are there in the hp ss carbine 30 cal
Very good info but on almost all your videos you have huge volume variations. Very loud to can't hear anything unless I put volume on 100%. So might want to check that.
also anyone thought of an Altaros regulator and 14cc plenum on an hp yet? would that make some more power? and a dual bottle kit ive thought about that to any advise from an expert?
I am running a carbon fiber 4500 PSI 500cc bottle and the Huma Brocock bottle regulator, what an awesome setup and with 25.39 jsb exact King I am getting 54 ft lb with my reg set at 150 bar and I'm still experimenting with different pellets
You’re gonna have to disassemble the gun until you get to the point to where you see the valve pin is in my video and then change it out at that point and reassemble the gun
Do you ever have your gun (carbine) double shoot. Like feed and shoot with one trigger pull twice ? It is very odd but is has started to happen to me about every 3-4 shots of the mag.
@@centralvalleyairgunners2380 Okay, I understand what the trigger sear does again. Can I access that by taking the trigger out like I did when I preformed the trigger sanding ?
Seems funny to me that when you try to contact AEA about there valve pin problem! They will not answer you back or even answer their phone or return your phone call.. People do your self a favor, Don’t buy a AEA product because the valve pin break very often. I have the 25 cal hp and I’m on my fourth valve pin . And haven’t put 300 rounds through it. you better have deep pockets t if you’re going own one
This part is pure garbage and the fail point on the s45 almost 100% of the time when they break. Contact us ! We make aftermarket Valve pins that are never going to break ! They are SAFE to use in the rifles and do NOT create any internal damage to the rifle even if the company is not for them. They would rather sell you a valve pin at 30 a pop that will not last more than 100 -250 shots max in the S45! Ours will never break and will always do the job it needs to do to make the rifle work.

Great video. Tip: to get a broken valve pin out, just use a magnetitic pickup tool. Easier than hemostats.

Hi the valve pins come in a couple of different colors. Thanks for inspiring me to do this video. Let me know how it goes on Friday. Thanks
Just noticed the bottle's transfer port. Huge! What mm is that? Most airgun manufactures make these small (on purpose??) so power is artificially limited. Nice work by AEA!
fantastic explainings - which compressor do you use - many thx from german - (the poor 7,5 Joule country !)
Hi Terry, thanks for the video, had to replace my my valve pin and your video was great,. Where can I get spare pins? Thanks
Any chance of replacing that air tube with one of those gorgeous carbon fiber bottles?
YES
@@centralvalleyairgunners2380 Here it is a year later, my valve pin broke and this video was great helping me replace it. Thanks so much.
What was the purpose of loosening the barrel bolts and removing the pin to get the valve out?
That's very informative, thank you so much!!!
I am hoping that someone comes up with a little bit better pin valve for these guns

@@bryanzimmerman8646Do you sell them?
Thanks great video

Same valve pin yes. I’m not sure about how many hammer springs and I think it’s barrel length and spring combined that makes the power differences
I have and assail 30 cal what's is bad when you try to pump it in but sounds like it's coming out barrow won't hold presher
Is the valve pin the same as firing pin?
Hey terry quick question I got the hp ss carbine 30 cal from you guys awhile back and I had to take the barrel shroud off but when I took the baffles out I lost track of how many there are supposed to be in there… so how many baffles and the little thin washers are there in the hp ss carbine 30 cal
How would u fix a leaky valve from the air port
The new version has a power adjustment not just a pin. Does it need removed?
No :)
Where can one get parts my pin broke with the spring 😫
Need a trigger take down video please.. My hp 25 will not cock after 5 magazine s. ??? I don't want to take more than needed off..
What did he say to use if it is stuck inside
Very good info but on almost all your videos you have huge volume variations. Very loud to can't hear anything unless I put volume on 100%. So might want to check that.
Hi yes thank you. I’ve got a new camera and microphone set up coming this weekend. So we’ll see how it goes.
also anyone thought of an Altaros regulator and 14cc plenum on an hp yet? would that make some more power? and a dual bottle kit ive thought about that to any advise from an expert?
Haven’t thought about that yet 👍

Check your trigger sear
@@centralvalleyairgunners2380 Hate to say but I do not know what a trigger sear is?
@@centralvalleyairgunners2380 Okay, I understand what the trigger sear does again. Can I access that by taking the trigger out like I did when I preformed the trigger sanding ?
Yes 👍
@@centralvalleyairgunners2380 Is there a way to order a new trigger sear.
