I was very upset when my baffles dumped all over floor cause I had no clue how they were supposed to go back in, and of course the owners manual was of no help. I was very happy that I found your video! Thanks for taking the time to do this.
Just bought an Artemis pp800r. Curiosity made me uncrew the “silencer”. Glad i find this video 🙏 I can see the components are more “cheap” and thin on mine. 🙄 But again - thx alot for the video!!
From one Big JJ To Big J , just had that falling apart baffles in my SMK Silencer , took to good old RU-vid & found your video , BRILLIANT & MANY MANY THANKS , spot on video & better still a valuable lesson learnt 👍👌👍👌👍
FYI I just removed my moderator from my Diana Chaser Rifle barrel. I placed the barrel in a vise wrapped with some cloth. Snuggled it in making sure it was tight. I proceeded to heat it up with regular heat gun on high. Moving it back and forth about two inches away from the barrel do not stay in one position too long it will melt. Take a small hammer and a flat tipped screw driver, tap it a few times to if it is loose also you can remove that bladed front sight at the same time. Remove the front sight then you can get to the moderator. Heat the moderator in a back and forth motion wrap some cloth around it use some adjustable pliers and twist it once it is loose simply unscrew it. It does have adhesives it to keep it in place it can be removed take your time and don't heat the barrel too much remember you are using a heat gun. That's just dime good 👍 luck and happy air gunning. We out
Hello Jason, I can't believe it's been three years since you tuned me up. The Chaser keeps on shooting straight and hard. All the best to you and yours. Bill
Bill! It sure doesn't seem like three years. It's been to long my friend. I will call you first part of the week. Looking forward to catching up with you!
OMG, THANK YOU BUT I DID FIND AN EASIER WAY AFTER TRAIL AND ERROR. DID NOT HAVE A BIGGER DOWL THAT WILL FIT THE HOLES. WOODEN SQUER AND STACKED THEM UP A LITTLE THEN PUT THE SQUER DOWN THE MIDDLE AND DROPPED THE REST DOWN AND TOOK THE BARREL SLIDE IT DOWN GIVING IT A LITTLE SHACK UNTIL THEY LINED UP AND SLID IT DOWN. NICE AND EASY. WORKED GREAT.
That is the same arrangement in my Chaser moderator, interestingly I have seen videos of the Bandit moderator which looks identical and the longer spacer was on the tip furthest away from the barrel end. My moderator was literally glued onto the long barrel with red Loctite. I used a bench vise with soft rubber jaws to hold the barrel then wrapped the moderator with Gorilla tape to protect it and used a strap wrench and broke it free. Now I can swap it to the pistol barrel. I wish Diana sold them separately as they have to be the most effective moderator I have used.
That is interesting about the order. It probably doesn't even matter! Lol Yeah the moderators are a pain to get off. The Artemis CP-1 version comes right off and it comes with magazines. It is nice to be able to switch back & forth fer sure 👍 Thanks for watching. I do appreciate it!
I think you have fergotten the 22mm OD x 1mm CS Rubber O-Ring that's comes on the upper part over the last cone, becourse my got one inside that's takes up the rest of the space for anti rattling and probably not loosen up the screws over time 🤔
I just got my Chaser 2 hours ago, I happened to look down the barrel (off of pistol). notice one of my baffles was crooked. I took it apart and all hell broke loose. Yours is the first video I came to ...... Made my day !!!! Glad I didn't shoot it first !!!!
Nice,... I didn't even think of making a vid when I had mine apart. I did play around with the direction & order of the baffles with interesting results,... Still didn't have a chronograph (Santa, I have been a very good boy) but I think pellets were a little faster in reverse but some of them were accurate & some were flying all over the place.
I hadn't thought of it either but I had been asked about it a few times so I thought I would put one up. Never thought of changing the order. 🤔 Might do that some time and see what it does. I hope Santa 🎅 brings you a chrony! Lol Merry Christmas David
@@davidyummus6259 Nah, we picked up about 4 inches a few days ago. I was just watching the news and it looks like you guys got dumped on. I frickin hate snow! 😆 My wife loves it. But she doesn't have to work in it like I do.
I sure like my Chasers. Pretty cool little guns and I think they will be around for a long time. They are very modifiable. A lot like the 13xx series or 22xx.
I can understand that , i had to wait 2 months untill i got one . I paid 99 Euro thats why i had to wait . The other guys wanted Much more but i Was thinking about spending more that it would come but now i finaly got it .. i hope you get one Soon and wish Lots of fun .
OMG!!! I froze the video at the stacking point to look at the order, then stack em… I was cussing saying the same thing!!! “What kinda Jenga crap is this”? 🤪 Then I hit play to see what happened next, and you mention jenga..too funny Good video,thanks so much I needed the help!!
@@bigjsoutdoorsairguns9007 It’s crazy how quiet these things are… I do pesting on the damn starlings,when I can get em in close enough.. this pistol works GREAT for that!! By chance have you attempted to look for a pistol scope for this? I’ve been trying to find an Optima 2-7X32 I think? Hard to find in stock.. same with BSA edge 2-7. Love the open sights, but it’d be nice to get some reach!
@@shawnstone4949 They are really quite fer sure! I have some cheap Walmart 3-7×20 scopes that I have been using. They are ok for bench shooting in my indoor range but they are not pistol scopes. Haven't really delved into pistol scopes very much. I need all the help I can get 👀 seeing these days! 😆 I getting pretty dang blind!
@@bigjsoutdoorsairguns9007 Hahaha…right there with ya man… can’t see for crap either!! Gettin worse lately… hence the urgency for the pistol scope… once I find one in stock , I’ll send ya another reply,if you want? Optima runs about $60.. and the BSA edge is $75 I think? Thought about going the red dot route,but that doesn’t help with magnification
Once I removed mine.. I’m going to do a meticulous packing of toy fluff,in between each baffle.. my son made a custom silencer for his 2240.. out of a pellet tin!!! Packed it with fluff… that thing is quiet!! If you’ve ever heard a 2240, you know they’re pretty loud!
@@bigjsoutdoorsairguns9007 I’m not kidding.. I was literally shocked. He made it while I was at work.. sent me a text. “You’re not gonna believe this”! I wasn’t expecting much, because of how crazy loud it already was… but DAMN! Major difference! I’ll have to make a short vid and send it to ya.. it’s looks stupid as all get out.. but, function over fashion😂🤣🤣
Bought my first PCP, Diana Bandit. I was able to remove the moderator with heat, but can't get the moderator open for the life of me. Is there anything I'm missing, is it left hand threaded? More heat?
How did separate the conical part from the moderator? I want to drill holes in it and add a sleeve to the OD that extends rearward to increase chamber volume. After modifying the gas chamber for more power it's pretty loud even with the moderator.
I would use 2 black zip ties of a size that will go between the lugs. Then on the light being mounted, file away enough area to clear the zip ties. West System Epoxy will work too. Get the 404 thickener. Clean both areas using rubbingalcohol and a clean paper towel, not any rag, sand lightly w new, clean 60 grit. Clean again after sanding. Make a dry run first. Have something else ready to glue too, using any extra glue. Mix the epoxy, add enough thickener, to catsup viscosity, or thicker. Apply the glue. Zip tie to clamp the parts in place, wipe away the extra. Check the alignment a few times. Let cure 5 hours. Seems expensive until you're on the 10th repair.
I was able to remove mine with some channel locks. I broke it loose and then put a sock over it and continued to use the pliers. I had to touch up the part where it screws on to the barrel with paint. They use red loctite at the factory so they are really stuck on. I have had a few guys comment and say to heat the end up with a hair dryer or something. One guy even said to put it in the oven! My method worked but like I said you will have to touch up or repaint the bell that screws onto the barrel.
Hallo . Excuse my Englisch please , i got my chaser today After Waiting 2 months. The picture, is that a chaser ? When yes, were did you get the parts? Its a beutifull gun . I will watch your vidios to hope to find out more about it and thanks for this one , i wanted to Look how the Bild the silencer and was not sure how to put it back . Thanks
Hey there, the picture is my Benjamin Armada .25 I do have a few videos on the Chaser. I have four oh them! Lol I absolutely love mine. You will not regret that purchase. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Thanks for watching. I do appreciate it!
Is there an O ring at both ends or just one? When I was reassembling mine I only found one O ring but now it is back together it rattles which it did not do before.
Yes that's Was exactly on my to, I guess it's a anti rattling and anti Loosening prevention. 🤔 And I think it's important that's inside because of the medication problems, maybe one extra on the underside would help also. 🤔
Hi I have a new chaser kit would u mind doing a video of how I can get another 100 or so feet per second out of it haven’t seen a step by step on how to do it I have diabetes and don’t see real good thanks gene mines in .22
Hey Gene, I will do a tear down and reassembly video and give so tips on how to increase the power. It kinda depends on far a person is willing to go. I do have a few simple mods that can increase the power. Not sure if you will gain 100 fps but it will definitely help. I will try to shoot it tonight and upload it. I will comment back letting you know when it is up. Thanks for watching. I do appreciate it!
@@genemcdonal3180 Sorry to here that Gene. I think we will all get sooner or later. I still haven't shot that video but when I do I will let you know man. Hope you get better soon!
Hey Jack, getting parts for these guns is a real pain. Fortunately my friend Terry over at buck-rail.com just developed one for the Chaser. I have one and I am going to do a video on it soon. It works great. They are already available on his website for 20 bucks shipped. Go over and check it out if you want. If you buy one please let him know Big J sent ya! Here is a link. buck-rail.com/product/diana-chaser-silencer/ Let me know what you think.
@@bigjsoutdoorsairguns9007 oh wow thank you so much. Going to check it out right after this message. I'll come back to this thread and let you know! I'll tell him u sent me aswell!
@@bigjsoutdoorsairguns9007 checked it out, pretty solid! Emailed him a couple questions and tolf him you refered me. Do you have a chrono? I'd love a before and after chrono, usually suppressors add just a bit more fps
@@dackbowland1876 I do have a chrony and I will see what it does before and after. I have a package coming from him with some other parts that I think Chaser lovers will like. It will all be in the video. Glad you like what you saw man. You won't be disappointed in Terry's products. I will let you know when the video is done. Talk to ya later man!
