    Any hope to reviving this annihilator?

    Got this from a friend. It’s all seized up and won’t pump or move. Any hope to bringing it back to life? I was told it’s an annihilator but I’m not sure. I’m going to try and disassemble it and see what’s going on inside but most likely rust and corrosion. Any input or advice is appreciated such as what can I use to strip the rust safely and o-ring sizes and a general identification on what it is exactly.

    Was it in a flood? Wow...

    It probably can be revived but needs more than orings

      Wow that's crusty.

      Soak it in PB blaster. Some heat might help things as well. Once you get it apart, I can give you more advice on whether you need new parts. You will definitely need every seal and o ring that's in it replaced.

      PM if you're interested in sending it to me to get fixed up.

        It sat in an unsealed chest in a shed for probably 20 years in Florida humidity. So yes pretty much!

          You are probably up against some galvanic corrosion between the brass and aluminum.

          Can it work again? Yeah sure....it's going to be a labor though

        Yes I had a thread on it and got a lot of help on the Iding and info to move ahead on that one. It’s pumping and firing and pretty good shape overall. I’m hoping to bring this ancient relic back, the guy I got it from is a good friend and would like to see it operational again. The sniper was his brothers, they both played on a team in Tampa in the late 89s early 90s.

          Easy Peasy.... Strip it down, clean it up, new orings and maybe a cup seal, and you are good to go.....
