This video wasn't exactly what I was looking for but still watched the whole thing. It's not a great tutorial on the gun, but it's a great tutorial for life. 🤣, he just called me a very bored person. You can tell this guy has a busy life and he's using his spare time to create spare time for his wife and bond with his son thereby enriching his family tree. And it all revolves around a project that is stress free because if for some reason it couldn't be fixed, he'd toss it in the trash and buy another, which he could have done from the get, but then this experience would not exist. Anyways, perhaps I am bored, and perhaps he'll be able to relate when that boy becomes a teenager lol.

Got my first Bugasalt in 2012 and this is my 4th. gave the rest away as they released better models. This is the first one that broke because I left it cocked all the time... ordered a new 3.0 anyway.

Has the screw damaged the "seer"? Seems like that screw could be hard on other plastic pieces over time. I just got my 3rd Bug a Salt used off eBay seemed a good deal since it came with the Lazer site. The description said "works great" , well it is broke in that exact way. Thanks for the interesting fix video. I always like fixing things as opposed to making everything disposable. I wonder if someone used a part as a template, maybe cast aluminum replacement parts could be more durable?

Is there something you could do to that spring to make it shoot with more psi . I was shooting a stink Beatle to see how something with "protective armor "so to speak and it didn't deliver an instant kill even after several shots ... it wasn't surviving probably wasn't doing to good after first shot but not dead just all peppered up (with salt lol ) could you do another video on powering up your bugasalt with more power by doing something with the spring so there isn't problems assaulting bigger game. Some before and after the spring alterations shots to show increased power. Thanks for the video it was good I think that you are the only bugasalt tear down video BTW. You new mission/video should you choose to accept will be good too can't wait

I would rather Mod that Bug a salt for a air tank chamber, made of PVC tube, that way you have Air pushing the salt harder/faster, and mod it for more salt volume to be shot, per shot. Multiple, fast shots with a air tank could be had. You could also use a Main Large Spring spacer to add more spring compression, now that you have it modified
