Which seal is this, telsa or apex. It measures .995 and is black.

what does it measure, across the top of the face? thiers lots of seals that look like that!
-
Not sure what you mean by top of the face. But this seal has to be one of the two, because I ordered the apex small http://www.airrifleheadquarters.com/catalog/item/251485/43077.htm and the telsa for gamo http://www.airrifleheadquarters.com/catalog/item/251485/2325552.htm and they came unmarked. Just want to make sure if ever I need to reorder I don't get the one I have pictured.
Thanks
Jeff

Ok can you measure the inside of tube if not put the seal inside the back edge of the compression tube and see what kinda fit you have and then tell me what you got!
-
Don't want to do that I have the other seal in the gun and it is shooting like a dream, have close a thousand shots on it. Had the seal that is pictured in the gun before and it cocked hard and finally pulled the seal off the piston after about 500 shots.

Well you know it takes a few thousand shots to break in a seal, I thought maybe you had the gun taken apart and was working on it? so your not gonna know really what kinda fit your gonna have untill you can get in the tube. All seal's vary in size from run to run, to get an idea of the seal size I use a telescoping gage to measure the inside of the tube and use a dialcaliper to measure that and remember the seal will swell up after its on the piston so you kinda wanna measure the old seal while it on the piston and off this will give you a pretty good idea of what seal size you need.
