Umarex T4E HDS Velocity Mod

[@gtbones]

I just finished this mod for a friend and I discovered a really useful shortcut. Instead of trying to use tweezers to remove the black plastic plug (@ 6:18) (which I found impossible) I simply pulled out the plastic barrel that has the large spring around it that inserts into the other side of the part that has the plastic plug in it and pushed the plug out. Fast and easy.

[@moosesimpson3297]

[@davelawday6609]

Thank you so much for sharing your skills and knowledge.. I'm definitely going to get one to add to the collection... as I'm in the UK it'll be restricted.. but as a semi retired engineer I love tinkering... and the T4E HSD. looks like something we can have some fun with.... regards Dave..

[@timmitzlaff8960]

I just removed the reducer and yes there’s more bang for your buck. Thanks for your video. I couldn’t have done it without you. Yes the little brass part and o ring fell out but they only go in one way. Remember guys, have patience!

[@BaronOfHell666]

Got the gun before knowing about joules. Actually got another gun that is also 7.5 but had it customized to 30, HDR68. So I went online to see if this HDS could be modify and here I am. And boy is it a lot easier to mod then the HDR68. Thank you kind sir. Also to anyone reading this always check to see if there are more powerful versions of the gun you are thinking of buying and if it can be modified. Also if you are looking at test on youtube make sure they are testing the one you have or want. Many test are done with upgraded guns that will be useless to you if you plan on using the standard gun.

[@garysmith3550]

Works really well but actually easier to push out the restrictor from the bottom with a flat screwdriver than using tweezers!!

wish somebody would do a review where they shoot the T4E before the modification and then shoot it again after and show the difference in velocity.

Just got my 20-plus joules valve modification from Germany and I'm excited to try it out since I'm upgrading from the 16J version

[@Dugiesrevenge]

I’m just waiting to carry out the same, the lack of “detailed” instructions makes me wonder as well as the fact it mentions removing the “glued” part? Please keep me updated with how you get on?

[@zer0divid3]

@@Dugiesrevenge the maker of the 20+j valve said if you havent already, remove the limiter which is the black piece inside the chamber that you unscrew with the two little holes in it, remove the gold screw(tiny gold valve that fell out with me anyhow because i didnt see it til i was done), and use heat to weaken the glue holding the old valve pin threads tight, replace with the new one, and you should be golden. No I don't know how much the results differ between the 16j version in the 7j version, but they shouldn't because the only difference with the 16j over the 7j is the valve is already been upgraded and usually the air flow restrictor in the chamber has already been removed for you but that could have been just in my case, when you have the 16j version to begin with (and i do). But it's a noticeable amount more powerful so I can't be getting the same statistics as I started with considering the guy whose Channel we are commenting on ended up with that much power and that's how much I started with. And I said I don't have a chronograph or whatever they're using to measure speed and velocity but, the difference is very noticeable! I just shot a glass marble through a heavy plastic garbage can and left a rather sizable hole, and the marble size made so it vs chamber wasn't airtight or even close to it.

i live in germany and here this gun is restricted to 7.5 joule but in it´s neighbor austria the same gun comes with 16 joule so i´d say (but i´m in no way a gun expert) you get even more than that because in this video he kinda doesn´t recommend shooting "full power" through only one barrel. and of course by modifying it one would be breaking german law

The final step was more difficult then said in the video. It bent my tweezers and I chipped the hell out of the little piece of plastic and the aluminum threads for the cap and it won’t go back on flush. But, found an easier way in the process.

[@paulevans4334]

How much more air does it use? And your not going to show us how much better it is now that you have done this?

[@MrBilld75]

It uses a lot more, because it's allowing more CO2 in. Cuts your amount of shots at least in half if not more. So if you were gett 40 shots say, out of 12 gram CO2 (like on my Umarex TR50 at 7.5 joules revolver by Umarex), you would get 10-20 shots with a modded one that puts it up over 11-16 joules like this. A old Norweigan KZbinr modded his pistol like mine, to shoot over 11 joules (it's 11 joules stock in Europe) and he only gets about 8-10 shots now at the higher velocity. Thing shoots like close to 600 feet per second and is a beast now from 300fps and dumps a lot more CO2 into the chamber, absolutely, so you will go through more 12 gram CO2 bottles.

[@mikemorgan8859]

Could be a disaster for some people but probably a lot more fun to shot.
