Umarex S&W M29, Testing out different barrels

[@lesslethalfordummies]

We learn something from every failure. Problem solving is probably my favourite part. Nice job 👍🏼

[@noobt4eguns]

Me too

[@runerebel8441]

Thank you Sean. I might drill the valve next 🤔

[@Yes-or-No-Yes]

Como siempre Rune ……. Muy interesante 👍🎯

Hi Rune, the downs and final ups of experimentation. And you got there in the end.

[@runerebel8441]

Hi my friend. Yes it took a bit of time and experimentation, but it seems to be a success at last 😃

When you do upgrades it's looking so easy! I am still now for weeks struggeling to upgrade my HDR50.......maybe bought the wrong stuff..... However thank you again for your nice an dhelpfull work, it is an isnpiration. Most of us would'nt know if you are not tellling us.

[@runerebel8441]

Thank you my friend. Iam very glad you like my videos and find them helpful. Good luck with your HDR50. Greetings from Norway 😃

Hi Rune. Literally just started watching this video and paused to send you this message. Regarding the ejector rod. It unscrews clockwise!! Also, to make it engage in the spring loaded barrel notch, you will have to round the edges slightly on the end of the rod so it pushes past the notch. You will also find that the ejector rod is slightly too short to engage with the notch. You can overcome this with a small spring on the screw-in end or the rod where it goes into the chamber. The spring acts as a spacer. Only needs a couple of mm. I will now press play!

[@runerebel8441]

Thanks for the info my friend. I noticed it was a bit short. The rod seems a bit stuck in mine. I might have to use epoxy on the end of the rod to make it work. Not sure 🤔

[@Waxmax]

@@runerebel8441 I’ve done this mod on all three of my m29’s. Didn’t need epoxy just a little spacing. Can be a bit tight to unscrew. I used a pair of grips with a rag to protect rod. Took me a while to realise it’s a reverse thread! Nice to see you used the tape mod. Interesting they never put a spring in yours either. Umarex must be cutting costs. Even more so on my chrome one as they didn’t even include the notch. Surprised they even bothered with the trigger!! 🤣🤣

[@runerebel8441]

@@Waxmax I didnt try with a tool. I will try again tomorrow. I have grinded the tip of the rod a bit, so if I can make it long enough it should work . Thanks again for all the info 😃

[@Craig59J]

Very good Rune.,lot of work your put in ,and it's paid off 👏 😀👍

[@runerebel8441]

Thank you Craig. I will try it again soon and see what sort of power it gives on a fresh CO2 😃

[@airgunsanonymouslesslethal1904]

Great work! It's beautiful and now more powerful! Excellent my friend!!

[@runerebel8441]

Thank you my friend 😃

Good evening Rune! Regards from Sweden

Good evening my friend. Greetings from Norway 😃

[@noobt4eguns]

Nice shooting even if low velocity

[@runerebel8441]

Thanks my friend 😃

Well that metal tube from your bathroom probably isn't a Smooth Bore

[@runerebel8441]

And not 4,5mm inside either.... Plus now it has dents inside it...🤔

[@neprevazutul]

Shooting pellets trough a non rifled barrel... That's a waste of pellets

[@runerebel8441]

It depends on the range. Pellets can give relativly good accuracy when shot from a smoothbore barrel. Energy is also higher with pellets because they weigh more than the steel BBs.
