Open Class Carter Buzzard

[Moodog]

Recently purchased but the seller forgot to mention that it leaked and did not shoot at a playable velocity. I have since fixed the leak but regardless of what I do I cannot get it to shoot above 170FPS. I have tried all sorts of different spring combinations, but I believe the problem is something with the internals. When you adjust the IVG more inward the sear no longer catches on the bolt, despite having standard nelson springs. Sizers are .689 and .686, someone drilled the frame for a bottom line and did not do the most elegant job. I no longer want to fight with this - I am just trying to get what I have in it.

Condition: frustrating 🤣

Would also love to know the sell price

Sounds like a powertube issue. I’m guessing it’s too long and choking the air

[Snowpuff]

What was the output pressure of the bottle you used to test it with? They need like 1k or just c02 cause that's at 1k

Co2’s sweet spot is more like 825-850psi I find just about anything designed to run on CO2 will run on HPA at that pressure unless designed to run on liquid CO2

Carters usually like to run around 850 like a Phantom. I’m with SoCal it’s likely a power tube issue or something is hanging up slowing the hammers operation. Could be the sear sear slot or something is mis alined those front block style Carters can be a pain to aline. I usually leave them a lil loose wiggle them around till you get the right feel in the action and tighten them down. Issue could arise where the mount screws are stripped enough that it won’t stay. In this case I drill the threads out to except CCI phantom stainless threaded inserts and red lock them in.
