Screw that held in in place snapped. I suppose I need one of those too. Think it was too hard. Cant get a center point bit to even scratch it. I cant find source for factory stock replacement. I dont need a high end turbo modded one.

Thanks, but they're sold out. There was a guy on ebay who seemed to have a batch, but he's sold out too.
eta Im on the phone with the company, I think they're going to get me the part. I just assumed they didnt sell parts because they wouldnt want people working on stuff on their own.

Annnd they're out of stock.

You're already on the  phone, so you've figured out the entire valve assembly is 2250-003, the valve stem is 2250-016, and the threaded cap that retains the valve stem is 2250-011?

I used to buy parts from Daisy in Arkansas, didn't know if Crosman still sold parts or not.

This is a good place for parts diagrams.

I think the hardest thing for good LE working for good agencies to really absorb is that there are whole departments full of exactly the complete fuckheads we rail against here. - vectorsc

They're out of stock. They dont even have valve body components. Guy on the phone said they have up to 180 day lead time on parts. I'll try the alchemy airwerks guy this evening. If he cant help, then just order a whole new gun and keep an eye out for valve body in the meantime, then have 2. They're pretty nice. Im not really into airguns, but they seem pretty cool.

Thanks I've been talking with the alchemy airwerks guy. He customizes valves, but sells some stock valves from time to time. I'd have to go check messages again, but I think he said he was going to look and see what he had around.

What is the broken screw in? Brass makes it easy to weld a nut to it and have it not stuck to the body the screw is in.

At this point it doesnt matter because I took channel locks to it and clamped it in a vice to tear it apart to see what was inside. So the valve body is pretty much toast. This was after I'd tried to take it apart with rubber jaw guards in the vice and leather strap on the pliers. Couldnt get it apart for the life of me.
After the screw broke and I realized I wasnt going to get it out I said fuck it I'll just get a new one and took the old one apart. Then realized finding a new one was no simple task.

Ok I tried them. The airwerks guy's communications stopped so I figure he's either busy or not that interested which I cant blame him. He even said his customizations are his business.

And nothing. Didnt get any package, didnt get shipping notification, didnt even get billed. No notice they were out of stock or anything, just nothing.
