  • Hi guys sorry for the late upload but got one here for you around the HFT 500 and in this one we remove the Anti tampers and swap the cylinder and barrel out for a shorter set, threaded for a mod. Thanks for watching.

      ​@@leec8592 For an HFT comp that cylinder is more than enough. I can't quite make it round with a BSA Ultra but they have a much smaller cylinder. I use a 500cc pony bottle to top up half way round.

    I know your pain, FTPs and EV2s are a nightmare to pull apart if they haven't been serviced before. I did an FTP recently and I noticed that AA have taken to thread locking the reg adjuster screw. It's taking anti tamper a bit too far I reckon. Lol.

    • @sub12airgunners
      @sub12airgunners  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Jeeze didn't think it could get worse, I like Air Arms, but they just seem to go down the wrong path with the AT, the ones in the block are fine no problem, a determined and careful person can get them out without too much hassle with no more than a hand drill and it provides a little deterrent for unnecessary tampering's, but any further than that and you are just hindering people trying to service there own rifles, just seems like such a backward thing to do, you are more likely to damage something getting the AT out then servicing the rifle, silly really. Thanks for watching.

    • @sub12airgunners
      @sub12airgunners  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks, was going to video the barrel but I talked myself out of it, as for tools, EDS are the Hex drivers, link below, and most of the machine tool bits come from cutwel, more expensive than the import stuff but it lasts and works, in machine tools you 1000% get what you pay for, but there is no shame in the Chinese stuff when your starting out, your going to break bits and it hurts a lot less when you break an inexpensive tool.

    Great vid....but why would you want to shorten this amazing rifle. On a 200 bar fill I'm getting 120 usable shorts from my HFT500, will very little fall off on trajectory.
    I could understand shortening a lesser PCP, but this is one of AA finest.....don't fix it if it ain't broke.

    @richardknight1795 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi, Really interested in this as planning similar on my S400 Carbine but swapping to a shortened CZ200 barrel - when machining the barrel for the breech end - did you machine an undercut for the oring, and would you recommend this or add the 2 brass parts that contain the oring?

    • @sub12airgunners
      @sub12airgunners  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I machined in the O ring groove to the barrel its self, because of the slightly different breech on the HFT500 compared to the S400, either way would work though, if you are confident in internal o ring grooves go for it, if not its going to be much easier just to buy the brass breach and machine the barrel to fit it, there its not going to be much benefit one way or the other, so just do what you are comfortable with. Thanks for watching.
