Hey all! Reddit (autocockers101) pointed me here! I dug my old Autococker out of the shed after 15 or so years. When I was younger I never really took it apart but I am now in the process of rebuilding it and I have an O-ring rebuild kit on the way along with bumpers for the ram and valve seats for the regs. I've never seen this thing torn down like this (it's all in nice organized baggies) and I had just a few questions:
-For the HPR/LPR, what was the "stock" pressure on these? Any idea how many "turns in" on them I should go? I foolishly didn't count them on the way out and I don't have a tester.
-I ordered DOW33, is that a good grease/lube for the whole marker in general?
-Some of the springs throughout the marker were rusty/flaky. I WD-40'ed them and brass brushed them off and they look fine now but should I just replace? They still seem to work but /shrug
-The bolt has wear on it, particularly where I THINK it rubs on the detent (see picture). Is this a "problem?"
-Any "Cheapish" upgrades that you think are worth it? My wife is already NOT excited about me dumping any money in to this thing... much less starting up paintball again so I'd have to keep it under like... $50.00 at the most.
-Any advice in general?
Thanks all!
