Not so much an RFD endorsement but Chambers are a solid source for spares. I ordered a couple of CO2 seals on Thursday with the minimal postage and they arrived today.
Top business for any old school spares 👍🏻

Agreed. I have always had top service from them and I remember ordering stuff off them at least 30 years ago.

I use them too and built a small stock of wear & tear parts for my four kings such as pawls (I wore one out last year) if I've got the word right. I can't remember off the top of my head.

Be aware gents , that as a repairer of airguns for the last 50 + years, many airgun spares are in short supply or non existant at the moment. You can blame Brexit / Covid/ shortage of lorry drivers/ Boris ,whatever . Many of the four kings will be stumped for spares , so stock up whilst you can. Most of our replicas have zero spare parts back up at all, never have had. They are designed to be thrown away if they break...Thank you America for that system. I have several co2 pistols here awaiting parts that are on a six month back order.

I must admit to being a bit of a magpie when it comes to spares for any of my guns, I've got a good box full of spare parts (service kits, CO2 seals, valve stems, CO2 locking rings for the seals, complete valve assemblies, etc.), as I plan on keeping my guns working long past their 'sell by date', lol. A good head's up though Pete, I did think about this last year after brexit really started to bite....

I have several co2 pistols here awaiting parts that are on a six month back order. Pete. I only buy spares if I can't cobble together something myself. Two part gap filling epoxy for metal and plastics - glues anything to anything and is airtight. Milliput - for shoring up internal structures. I replaced my mate's Sig Sauer Virtus trigger spring (For some reason it was missing on the UK spec of this rifle) with one I found in a pen. PTFE Sealant Tape - for any thread farting out air. Generic silicon o rings bought by the hundreds from the likes of amazon. I've come across a few problems I've not been able to solve without buying the actual part, but very few. My dad said anything can be repaired with spit, chewing gum and rubber bands, and he wasn't wrong
