Walther "Parrus" .177 break-barrel.
Lost the breech-seal somewhere...

I couldn't find a replacement for the life of me. Umarex, well, they were no help. If I ever hated a gun company, it's them.
Anyway, fashioned a replacement with one that was a big bigger in circumference, but fit in all other ways.

Well, I think so. Time will tell. Meanwhile, I'm out seeing if I can break it.
Here's the setup at the moment.... perhaps I'll be back later if I have anything worthy of bragging about.

Walther is an Umarex label.Is that a Gamo-built version?
Hi, Frank I have a question, if a breech seal fails, can I replace it with an O Ring from a hardware store?
Speaking as a person that spent a good part of life working with seals (machining parts for numerous seals) I'd conjecture not. An O ring needs complete support, and I'm thinking every time you opened the rifle you would need check that O ring to insure it hadn't fallen out. And then, it wouldn't seal the same as the original seal. But I'm open to debate.Hi, Frank I have a question, if a breech seal fails, can I replace it with an O Ring from a hardware store?
Thank's.
Al.
Thanks! But me and Umarex don't seem to get along. Finally after some back-n-forth, they wanted to charge me for the breech seal on my "lifetime warranty" gun. I just picked up a solution elsewhere.Frank - Umarex USA allegedly has breech seals and stuff for your Parrus.
