I'm happy to see all the new guns, and even a few new faces stopping by- welcome all! I've been a bit under the weather lately, but hopefully things will look up soon.
Harquebus, I'll attach a couple photos with nomenclature that may help. Also, on the No. 1938 of yours that's spitting a BB 10 feet, there's a very good chance the abutment seal has come loose and is riding back and forth on the air tube. When this happens, there's a huge air leak created. To check if the barrel seal is loose, remove the shot tube and while looking into the empty barrel using a light, work the lever. Not enough to cock the gun, you just want to make the piston drop away from the abutment. If you see a hole appear when the lever is moved, that's the barrel seal dropping down into the compression chamber. If this is the case, you can replace the seals, or you could even reattach the original abutment seal if it's not too worn out. Some info on this can be seen here: http://forum.daisymuseum.com/model-96-repair_topic9935_post42734.html#42734.
