Snowpeak ap900 looks nice for the money

I'm wanting to replace the OEM silencer. The replacement interferes with the filler dust cap/pressure gauge. Does the dust cap pull off, or is there a magic word?
Is there a 1/2" UNF male/female adapter giving 10mm spacing i.e extending barrel length, out there?
You’ll need to use the tool provided to remove the pressure gauge, the fill port cover will then come off along with the spring. Someone made me a rotating fill port cover which makes life a whole lot easier.

Update on the .22..

So…got some time to fettle it today.

New hammer spring…. 1.6mm x18 x 35mm plus a Delrin top hat… just long enough not to be floating…..cocking is as smooth as butter and effortless.

New TP…. 2.5mm.

Adjusted reg and shooting at 11.6 to 11.65 with JSB 18.13.

Just ran a full shot string….with 15.89 JSB’s….A total of 82 shots before dropping below 11fpe - Average of 11.16 fpe . Dropped off reg at 65 bar

Happy days!

Well happy with that. That’s added in excess of 25 full power shots to a 250 bar fill

Happy dance?View attachment 854726
Could do with someone doing a list like that for the .177 for the less experienced tinkerer.

I went down the AR grip/buffer/buttstock rabbit hole when I was kitting out my GK1, it’s massive and airsoft shops generally have hundreds of parts in stock to choose from 😂
Yeah….. it’s addictive. I’ve done several CP2’s and Crosman with AR kits conversions…..good fun…. But can be a little costly 🤣

Voldemort does a replacement filler cap and an adapter to extend a shroud beyond the filler cap 🤫………think a few members on here might have them in order … means you
 
Ohhhhhh. And I’ve bought a picatinny to buffer tube adapter…… and a tube…… just deciding on a butt stock🤔

I've got a FDE Magpul CTR and tube ready to go on mine and had planned to get the pic-buffer adapter expecting the stock to be pants but it's not. And I'd lose the folding stock unless I added that as well which is another £20+ for no real gain.

I could maybe do with 5mm of rise in the cheek but that's it. Easy enough to make a spacer to go under the cheek and buy two longer M4 bolts
 
What tried and tested platform are you saying it's based on ?
Hi Fatbob 59
I have been led to believe that the AP1000 was preceeded by the AP900 which seems to generally have worked quite well.
Have seen all sorts of mixed opinions and reviews across the spectrum.
Personally I haven't yet had any issues but I suppose it's still early days.
👍
 
Here’s where I’m at now.
New hammer spring at 46mm
3mm TP
Regulator turned down by 1/3 of a turn

FPE at 11.3 with jsb heavy with a standard deviation of 2 fps
Shot count I didn’t get chance to check yet but the gun does appear to be using less air than previously, I’ll check that tonight.
