morini sounded strange

Hi,

I have been shooting with a morini 162EI for 2 years. So far so good. Lately, I noticed that it sounded different after 50 or 60 shots...like a lost of velocity for a couple of shots and then returned back to normal.

During those couple of shots when it sounded different, there was hardly any changes to its accuracy, still getting my 10s. Told by my shooting buddy that it may be a valve problem. But why it returned back to normal and no loss of accuracy after a couple of shots?

Should I send it for a check or something? My place has no gunsmith.

Thanks

From memory, doesn't the user's handbook suggest servicing every 2 years.

Where in the world are you. I'm sure someone will be able to point you at a local approved repairer.

Time to have it looked at, it could be O ring seals or just needs a clean in around the loading bolt and hammer.
Have it serviced.
