    Clear thingy on valve

    Any body know what that clear rubbery o-ring thing between the valve and bolt asembly is called. Mine shredded the other day and i need a new one, that is if it is actually needed?

      It is called a bumper, and you definitely want one one. Prevents the metal on metal hammering when you fire.

        to extend the life of the bumper you can glue it to the valve body as well ( just a couple of drops to keep it in place ).
