Pellet Gun Nitro Pistons.
I see some of the pellet guns with a "Nitro Piston". Is this the same kind of thing that some automobiles use to hold up their hatchback and such? The things that lose their strength after a couple of years? I'm just trying to figure out if a nitro piston is desirable or not. Thanks! RogerN |

RogerN No hands on experience... from from what I've read yes, similar to hatchback stuff. There are quite a few youtube videos on this. See: https://www.youtube.com/results?sear...y=nitro+piston The two shorter ones by Crosman (2:24 and 3:04 mins) are worth watching. Good explanation on how they function... -- Leon Fisk Grand Rapids MI/Zone 5b Remove no.spam for email |
