Anyone got one of these. Big Dan sells them. I went into a gun shop because I was nearby “just for a look” and walked out with a brand new one.

Early indications were not good. All over the place and then it suddenly makes a sound like I'm shooting a rimfire. I’m quite new to technical airgun but it’s clearly dieseling. A quick barrel clean settles this aspect down, for a while. I’m guessing it’s spitting manufactures grease into the barrel so the cycle repeats.

The more experienced (Nick/TbT) says I should to have it to bits, clean, relube and reassemble but a bit technically beyond me at the moment.

Has anyone stripped one of these. The action (I believe) is the same as the Remington Pest Controller and no doubt other badged Chinese guns. Any vid links appreciated.

……………and if you read this Nick, thanks for the vids/channel. I can’t wait to buy one of your products when I have the HW77 to work on. In the meantime it’s practice on the cheap gun.
 
If you're planning on doing it yourself, have a look on the UK Chinese Airgun Forum (UKCAF) and follow the links to the xs19.
Thanks for the reply.
I’m familiar with the Chinese list. Might sound a daft question but I’m guessing that you are saying my gun is an XS19?

Just for the avoidance of doubt.
