Youd think for a 70$ air pistol that valve would be so much stronger. Ive replaced all the seals and valves twice but here i am now seeing if theres other things people have done to get these to work again. The vigilante is the first crosman ive ever had to work on 😢
Chendo I agree but the reality is that we live in a time where Corporations are outsourcing manufacturing to the lowest bidder. I have found that the seals coming from China are substandard to those produced in the west. I normally stick with Crosman products because of the availability of after market parts and assy.

2:07 *this was stressfull even through the screen! Haha* _I ended up ordering my 2240 from somewhere else so I didn't get the chance to order spare parts for my Vigilante... But I sure want to now that I know somewhat how it works 😁_
Thanks Lowkey.👍👍 Using that C clip pliers is key to getting the job done. I anticipate a problem in reassembly as we will have to depress the valve stem while inserting the C clip. No sweat! I have a plan but you will have to wait for the next video. HaHaHa!😁
Just use some silicone grease or Crosman Pellgun oil on all the seals when assembling them and everytime you insert a new CO2 cartridge put 1 drop of pellgun oil on the tip of the new cartridge . Once pierced, the CO2 will blow the oil through the valves and help to seal them from leaking.. Check out the other 2 videos. They will help you with the repair.

Starting to put subtitles on all the videos. The sound from the GO PRO is horrible. Thanks for watching Congrats on reaching 2 million views on the Dog attack video.👍👍
Here are the part numbers: 10592......Assy. Puck 130--034...O--Ring Seal 357a 054...Seal Quad 38--130.....O Ring (valve Body ) 38--128...12gr CO2 cartridge Seal Hope this helps to get you up and shooting again. Thanks for watching and commenting👍👍
I don't think there's much you can do with CO2 pistols except try to put more tension on the hammer or shoot them in a very warm environment. Also pause 10 to 15 seconds between shots to give the valve time to recover from the cold CO2 passing through it. Tweaking valves to gain fps is more of a PCP thing.
