co2 discharger & 209 adapter problems
« on: January 05, 2008, 12:15:50 AM »
I bought a 209 adapter for my triumph-when i fired the co2 cylinder all the gas escaped through the breach plug hole and blew back on me.
 Tried it a second time and got same gas leak results-I contacted innovations,the company who makes the unit and they say
no idea what to do because they don't test them and are not familiar with the 209 in-lines but will look into it?? I never had any problems with their percussion cap or flintlock adapters.
   Has anyone had the same problem? Seems to me there is no seal on the nipple to stop the gas from backing out of the plug hole.
  I would fire off the round but it's too late by the time we get out of the woods and I really don't feel like taking the ml apart.
  these triumphs are great and it isn't necessary to take anything apart for cleaning until after apprx. 25 shots.Just swab out the barrel , clean out the plug hole with a pipe cleaner and done! I also don't want to leave the powder in the barrel for a few days to a week--
                                      thanks -LS

Keep that up and you will have a rusty Triumph.

I don't think so!-the barrel is cleaned and swabbed after each use with no water based bore cleaners and coated with corrosion x.
 never had a rusty barrel !!!- all my ml's are in mint condition-you must have mis- interpreted my post -thanks-LS

Just take out the breach plug and if I am understanding right you are tring to unload it. Just use the ram rod and push it out.

Sounds like you need to send it back. Heck that's why I don't buy them its another gimmick that some people have gotten to work.
