Modifications

Hi!
I am from Slovenia, Europe, and I will order a Disco from England. Problem is that they have regulations about the power of airguns to 16 joule. In our country we don't have this regulations, but this airgun costs around 650$(no pump, just rifle),-twice as much as in England. Can anyone tell me how they reduce the power of this rifles, do they put in smaller valves or rings, or are there just settings(trigger, springs etc..) so I can modulate it easily or do I need some special tools....
Thanks for your help!

Welcome Ziga,
I've just got one from Spain! Much cheaper with a pump! Check out http://www.sermasports.com. These guns are set to Spanish standards! England is 12, spain is 18!!!! much more power!!

A heavier hammer spring will hit the air valve harder and cause more air to be released.  This should increase the power.  I would do a web search to see if some air gun modifier sells heavier springs made for the Disco rifle.  Mine in .177 is advertised at 1000 fps with light weight pellets (that's USA sold ifles).  I got mine as new in the box with pump from an air gun forum seller for $300 shipped... very cheap in US dollars.

Ziga,  Read my recent post.  Just changing the hammer spring is pretty easy...about 10 minutes work.

Ziga, just welcoming you to the GTA forum and family.  I don`t have a Discovery and I don`t modify my airguns so I can`t help you there.  If you`ve anymore questions....I`m sure some other members can answer them.  Since you`re in europe....maybe you can order from Spain as suggested by Truman/Andy.....and you`ll have a more powerful airgun than if ordered from the U.K.

Hi ziga ;)

I'm from Croatia and I got my Disco from England, some of my friends ordered other PCPs from England too,
and at first we had problems that they didn't wanted to send us FAC guns, but after few emails we explained that we dont have
any speed/power regulations, we got our guns with full speed/power. =)
