Did they do something different on the G-7's breech pin because for the life of me I can't get it out. I have removed both of the screws keeping it from falling out but for the life of me I can't get it out. Any suggestions?

No one, c'mon I need to send this off to be ano'd. The longer I wait to send it the longer it will be before it is returned to me and I need it back before a tourney next month.

I called Bob and got the info. You need a 2mm screw about 1/2" long that threads into the breech rod and once in you pull it out.

I started a thread about this yesterday. Mine bent went I dry fired the gun with out a bolt. Now the poor gun is in a world of hurt. I couldnt get the front pin out at all because it was bent and ended up breaking a screw in the front, then breaking another tool in the back from trying to push it out from behind! AHHHH!!! I have to send it in to Ken to be fixed. Stupid breech rod's!!!!

Whether its an oversite on your part or someone else dropped your marker and didn't tell you, there is definately more to this than meets the eye. These pins have been on Angels for years without this happening and at higher pressures too.

Nope. That is why I am so baffeld??? I used it at a tourny. Took it home. Lubed the inline and the LPR. Put some oil in the a.s.a. to shoot through, and when I did...uh oh... No one else has touched it. I talked to a guy at Cobra, and he said he never see's it either. Maybe a couple of guns in the last few years. I think I just got a bad rod, or just plain have rotten luck. Either way...it sucks.

where do you send yours to get anno'd? I want to do the same but I don't really trust just anyone.

In hindsight, sorry it's late, but I've found that using an allen key slightly smaller than the rod fits in nice and just requires a little tilt to have it lock with the threads before applying the little pressure required to pull it out. I know that the screws that use to hold the 14-way clamped in place used to work also, back in the IR3 and earlier.
