Is this Steyr LP1 Druckluft or Co2

Hupo

Can somebody tell me if this Steyr LP1 is Druckluft or Co2 from looking at the picture?

Thanks,

Kante

Hallo,

i think its Druckluft ( Pressair).

Regards, Kante

It is looking like a pistol which is working with compressed air.

Hupo

Thanks ;-),

btw are the druckluft cylinders from the LP1 and LP10 interchangeable?

Kante

Hallo,

all Pressair Steyr Pistols use the same cylinders.

**Pellet**

The LP1 works with Co2.

Hallo Hupo! Its a Steyr LP 1P(Druckluft),no LP1(CO2).

Hupo

Thanks Guys,

Going to the current owner tomorow, and perhaps come home with this new toy ;-), and have a test with it at the range monday.

I got my new toy today.

It looks great except 1 cilinder which has alot of paint damage, I already test the sights mechanism for up/down and left/right and this seems to work perfectly.

One thing I noticed which scared me a little bit when I looked through the sight the grain wasn,t completely horizontal, when i looked closer i saw the barrel was a little twisted where it is attached to the gun (as you can see one the drawing in the red square). I already tried the screwdrivers steyr included but no of them fit on screw 5 so i can,t adjust the barrel yet.

But i first wanted to ask if this is normal and what i should do about it.

Hi Hugo,
in my mind it's not the barrel what is twisted, just the tube around the barrel (the grein ist fixed there)
I don't have a LP1P, but if i'm reading the drawing right, you just have to release the screw 5 and turn the tube a little.
but a suitable screwdriver you have to find by yourself....

Hi Herbk

Yeah your right, that,s what I meant .

Apperently it was just a 2.5mm hex key i needed, so I already rotated the tube and it,s horizontal again

Can,t wait to test fire this gun monday,

I,m really starting to like the steyr you can adjust about everything

The german "Korn" has several translations, one of it is "grain", for example: the very small parts on a film, a 400 ASA film shows more grain than a 50 ASA film, but nothing to do with guns.

In combination with guns the word "Korn" has to be translated with "front sight", in connection to "rear sight" for Kimme (open rear sight) or Diopter ("rear peep sight"). The exact phrase would be "front sight blade".

Because these special vocabulary is not mentioned in most of the current dictionaries it sometimes helps to check the manufacturer's website, if it shows the texts also in english.

At http://www.Steyr-sportwaffen.com you can easily find all the accessories with pictures, there you will also see the different adapters for CO2 and compressed air (not pressair). But be cautious: some of the english texts there, for example the PDF-flyers, also show a, hm, very austrian way of translation...

Beware by the way, that the tube barrel-casing has to be fixed with a very small gap (approx. 0,5 mm) to the casing body (Gehäuse) to avoid pressure and/or vibrations. So don't press it tight against the housing.
It's not mentioned in the manual, but was told me so by Ernst Huber ("mechanico superiore" of Steyr) some years ago.

Very helpful for translation in both directions, also for french and spanish: dict.leo.org

Thanks for the tips Ulrich Eichstädt

Yes I,ve been using babelfish to translate some words from dutch to english but this doesn,t always work especially with technical words.

I didn,t know about that 0,5mm gap thanks for telling me.

Hupo

In which year did they actually started making the LP1 and the LP10?

And is there a way for me to see in which year this gun was produced?

Mag ja alles sein, aber bist du sicher, daß du im richtigen Thread geantwortet hast?? Das klingt hier als dein erstes Posting zum Thema recht sinnlos.

Zweitens: Bitte keine Bilder und keine Flash-Grafiken und erst recht keine Deeplinks zu anderen Websites in die Signatur setzen. Deine leere(!!) Sig ist etwa 8 - 10 cm hoch, erlaubt sind drei (3) Textzeilen oder eine gleich große Mini-Grafik:

Drittens: Bei Durchsicht deiner bisherigen Beiträge möchte ich dich doch dringend darum bitten, künftige Antworten mit Text und nicht nur einem einzelnen oder auch einem Dutzend Smilies loszulassen. Geht der Unsinn wie in diesem Thread weiter,

machst du erst einmal ein paar Tage Pause. Das ist hier ein Fachforum und kein Online-Bilderbuch.

Wenn du im Nachhinein deine Postings löschen willst (warum auch immer), kannst du einen Mod informieren. Daß das gerade wenn du selbst den Thread gestartet hast, einfach ziemlich daneben ist und den Thread-Zusammenhang zerstört, kommt noch dazu.

Mit der dringenden Bitte um Beachtung
