Does anyone have a copy of a Steyr LP 5 Air Pistol manual? Air not CO2.
Thanks

LP 5 Manual

I recently purchased a LP 5 pre owned. Previous owner had not shot the pistol in almost 10 years. I have found that the pistol is not holding air. You can hear air leaking out or it near the port for the magazine, especially when the magazine is out of it. I tested both air cylinders by placing each end in water and found no bubbles. So the cylinders aren't leaking. I think the air seals may be old and leaking and would like to repair them. I don't have a copy of the LP 5 manual. I have a copy of the LP 50 manual, but I'm not sure it can be used for the LP 5. I was hoping someone could copy or scan one and email it to me. Thanks.

I'll have a look at my manual, but I really don't think it's all that detailed. Have your tried sourcing online on the steyr website ? I can't remember if they're on there. Re. your problem, it sounds like it could be the seal, but if it's been 10 years idle, I'd get it serviced.
