Tristar Raptor semi-auto shotgun disassembly and reassembly

- Опубликовано: 21 окт 2024
- In this video I take a tristar raptor down to the receiver and then show how to put it back together. They are very simple, easy to work on/clean, and this one has been very reliable. Tristar youth model in 20 gauge.
In the video I mention a Remington, and I meant to say 11-87 but mistakenly said 870.
I can't thank you enough for this video. I bought a gas operated gun today. I took it to the range to break it in as it is brand new. I did not even realize that the gun(Akkar Churchil 220 Gobler 20ga) is gas operated. It had problems cycling as I was using target loads. I had to dismantle it and I got screwed 😵💫. I had no idea how to put it back. There were no video for that particular gun. I had to give up putting it back until I find your video. You saved my day 🙏🏻
Thank you for this video. Just bought the Raptor Youth for my son and we are going to assemble it today. Glad to have watched this first!
Thx. I bought a citadel. Looks exactly like this gun. I bought it for bird hunting til I was told it is too short. But this helped with cleaning it. I didn’t break down as much as you but almost.
Great video. Bought a Sibergun SSYON12 Classic and couldn't find anything on it. This help tremendously
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I've saved it and have already referenced it multiple times. Very detailed. Well done.
We used this at work, to assemble one for sale. Thank you!
Thanks for this video, I was looking everywhere for an Armsan Cre8 disassembly video and couldn’t find one, it’s so similar that this was brilliant. I managed to get the gun all jammed up….Thanks for posting😅
Thanks for sharing your video, I must have put mine back together wrong and it wouldn’t cycle, or pick up shells, they would kick out of the tube, I had just bought it new, so I just took it back to the dealer, I hope it didn’t destroy itself. Thanks again.
Thank You,.Saved me a trip to the gunsmith and some $$
At the sporting clays course, I have shot a little over 300 shells through my TriStar, Viper, Semi-auto, 12 guage without any problems. I love the gun! Although, I have to reference your video in order to take it apart for cleaning.
thanks for not ruining it with music
Nice explanation and video vlog.. thanks for you info... more power to your channel
Great Video!
Just to clarify that model is actually our Raptor model, the rubber o-ring should be semi-permanently mounted in the barrel ring forward of the gas ports. The o-ring should NOT be mounted on the magazine tube like a Remington 1100. Proper procedure for removing the receiver pin is from left to right and reinstall from right to left, otherwise you risk damaging the hammer pin tube and clip on the trigger guard.
Thank you. I don't know where my brain was. I will edit the description. It is a raptor. Thanks for the additional information. It has been a great gun and several smaller folks have shot it.
Thanks for sharing this information, I was wondering if I should have an oring that moved, mine is trapped inside the barrel ring.
Thank u… I was looking for the O ring
Super clear video for us novices..thanks
Thank you...very well done. Budget Shotguns are great for Turkey....You will have to find the shells that work best for the action. I would highly recommend adding a gun vise or Vice attachments to your Gun maintenance kit, especially for shotguns.... holding the bold / spring tension is much easier when the gun is vised....any you lesson the chance of launching the spring....Don't ask me how I know
Thanks, excellent video. Just received this cool shotgun this morning. Trying to assemble, I hit the mag release with the barrel off and nearly launched the piston assembly through the dining room window! Should have watched this FIRST!! Mine has a split metal ring not a rubber O ring which is odd. Someone else mentioned this too.
Must be an upgrade since this one is several years old now. Glad it helped.
Mine has an o ring that is trapped inside a groove of the barrel ring, it’s stationary and not able to move.
Good and comprehensive lesson, thanks
You’re a lifesaver thank you so much
Excellent! Thankyou
I think you forgot to tell in this video about that tiny black O Ring. Where have you put it?? Hope you will reply
@@shahidrabbani1788 The o-ring goes onto the magazine tube last, right before you put the barrel back on.
@@murphyfirearmstraining3630 ok thanks. But it is better to show on any next video, how to insert (if possible)
New subscriber Little Rock Arkansas thanks for sharing
Thank you!
Without this man i would have no idea how to assemble my shotgun 🤣😭
I messaged tristar, they said these shotguns take benelli and berrita choke tubes.
If you are searching for aftermarket chokes, search "mobil" choke thread. Carlson's choke tubes sells some good ones, we have an extended xxfull turkey choke from them for this gun.
My barrel is stuck 2/3rds in with the action not moving anymore. Have to bring it to a gun-smith tomorrow.
I do believe that the 870 is a PUMP shotgun ! Not an automatic !
I meant 11-87. But the 11-87 bolt and 870 bolt do come out the exact same way.
@@murphyfirearmstraining3630
That would make sense.
I did the mistake to let the bolt slam without the barrel on it does it damage the gun itself besides the mark that it did to the receiver ? Thanks
If you do it a lot it can crack the receiver, but generally a few times just makes a little scratch. Not something I would do regularly, but if it happens every once in a while it will be fine.
@@murphyfirearmstraining3630 okay thank you for your answer i was wondering 👍
I have a raptor ATAC and the bolt is horizontal, not verticle in position. Comes from the factory like this.
The bolt handle won't come out.
Some dude told me I have to lock the bolt to the rear, take it out, then close the bolt (bolt relesase button).
Any ideas???
@get_it_done4580 never handled one of those, but most semi-auto shotguns you push the carrier so the bolt goes about 1/3 of the way back and it will pop right out. When you push the carrier back and the bolt goes back also, if the bolt handle slides in a groove in the bolt this trick will work.....
@@murphyfirearmstraining3630 thanks brother, appreciate it. I tried it and it does align flush. I didn't see the groove cut out for it. However, it's still stuck. Almost like it's welded in there or something. I wish i could send a pic or short video, but youtube doesb't allow it in the comment section. I did manage to find a guy that talks about what you did here, but still it doesn't come out.
I might have to call Tristar service center or my local gunsmith😒
Your video was interesting but didn't address my question of how to tighten the stock !
Is your buttstock loose on this gun?
It was , I figured it out myself !
..thanks - picked up a TriStar ATAC in August - needed to find a disassembly/reassembly vid...
Awesome video but I’m sure you know an 870 is a pump gun with no recoil spring like the gas gun you are working on
I mean 11-87 but misspoke in the video. Definitely not an 870.
Great video!
Where did you but that after market swing swivel cap?
From tristar. I don't think others will fit this gun because they aren't deep enough. Unless you shimmed.
I removed the bolt handle, but the bolt, bolt holder, and spring won't come out. It looks like the gas piston is stuck. Have you heard of this issue, and do you know of any solution to this?
Without seeing the gun it would be pretty tough. But a lot of these guns are tight, sometimes you will think it is stuck and you just have to wiggle it at the right angle. I have not had a bolt get stuck on one of these.
How is the spring and gas piston stuck? They should slide right off of the magazine tube after removing the barrel?
What's stuck is the gas piston. It doesn't slide off the magazine tube.
@@SergioGonzalez-we8cq that shouldn't happen. Did you take the o-ring at the end of the magazine tube off? If so, the piston should very easily slide off.
Did the o-ring get stuck under the piston maybe?
I would twist and pull the piston towards the back of the shotgun to see if I could free it up, maybe using something like wd-40. The gas piston should move very easily and freely. The only time I have seen it stuck like that is when the o-ring got rolled underneath it.
I have cycle issues with mine even after the break in. Have you heard any fixes for it?
I would start with:
Is your tube very clean, smooth and dry for the piston to cycle?
Are your gas ports in the bottom of the barrel clear and clean?
A lot of folks will get a little piece of wad or dirt in their gas ports and have cycling issues, or their tube will be dirty and slow the piston on cycling.
If both of those things are OK, there are a few fixes, but they require modification to the gun. You can enlarge the gas ports, but need a machinist drill set for that as you only want a very small increase. The other thing that helps some guns is to leave it locked open so the spring stays compressed for a long time, sometimes that loosens them up. I would try that first.
Finally, you could take a coil or 2 off the spring, but I wouldn't do that unless you only intend on shooting really weak shells all the time.
@@murphyfirearmstraining3630 I wonder if I could buy a second spring to cut down for lower powered shells and put the full force spring back in for harder shooting game loads,,,
@@nickrobinson9503 I haven't looked into after market parts, but if a spring is available, that would definitely help any gun cycle low power shells. Just like any other modification, you want to take off a little at a time.
Whats the lever for on the front the trigger guard ?
That is the carrier latch. It is the equivalent of pulling the trigger but doesn't fire the gun. On this gun if you have the tube full but no shell chambered the carrier will not pick up a shell because it thinks there's one in the chamber. Pressing the carrier release allows it to pick up a shell when you pull the bolt rearward. I hope that helps.
Enjoyed your video.
What size is the O ring…looks like it would be prudent to have a spare or two…
They last quite a while unless you are shooting really heavy volume. I just get the 20 gauge gas o rings from Carlson's for it.
What kind of spring is in a 870 stock?
Where did you get that o ring from!!?
@@JohnSmith-mk9nf carlson's sells them
Where is it located in the weapon
Thanks for the link
@@JohnSmith-mk9nf On the outside of the magazine tube. Goes on after the gas piston but before the barrel in re-assembly. This seals the gas from escaping forward. The newer versions of these may not have them anymore.....
Hell yeah I thought I bout messed mine up lol thanks for the video
Anybody know where I can buy the gas piston and o ring? My shotgun came without them and it cant eject the shells instead it jams up
Several people sell the orings, I bought my last ones from Carlson's chokes. But I was buying choles too, so I included some in the order.
The piston- I would contact tristar and see if they would send one for free. If not I would get them to sell it to me. That way you know it fits/works.
no spring in a 870
How do you clean the magazine
You have to thread the magazine tube out of the receiver. The the spring and follower come out. If I remember correctly.
Did they stop making their 100/120 series pistols? I only see the 1911's and shotguns on their site now.
I am still seeing the viper (Shotgun) available in 20 and 12 from distributors. Haven't heard anything about them not making them anymore.
They're still making them. Bass pro stores carry them if you're still looking.
I got a lot of problems with my shotgun my second is a pointer 5+1 rounds only fits 4+1
Are they 2 3/4 shells or 3 inch?
@@murphyfirearmstraining3630 2 3/4 That’s weird is new ?
How do you open where the shots go to see if there is something stuck? Do you have any video to check it?
@@cheppeolivares4898 you mean the magazine tube?
@@murphyfirearmstraining3630 yes pls
How can i soften the trigger?
I haven't played with the trigger in this one. The trigger group comes out and you would have to clean up the sear engagement point or change the geometry. That's delicate work that could go wrong.
Has anyone had issues with these being overgassed and causing damage to itself?
Not this one. I haven't heard of any either. Is yours overgassed even for low brass bird shot?
@@murphyfirearmstraining3630 mine is not this exact model it's more of a "tactical" model but yes, I took it in to a gunsmith to have thread locker applied to the bolts bc they all worked themselves loose, along with the pin walking out on its own, the gunsmith alerted me about metal shavings in the receiver and the cause
@@momochitanba9246 and that's with shooting low brass stuff? Wow.
These guns are usually a little under gassed and won't cycle cheap stuff without some break in.......
@@murphyfirearmstraining3630 yeah, I only ran high brass buck for like the first 50-100rds after that it ran low brass birdshot just fine
I've had it for about a year
Made in Turkey, like other wonderful firearms!
My 20 gauge tri star Raptor did not come with a o ring
What size o ring fits a tri star raptor ?
Larry mine didn't have a rubber o ring either. Haven't shot it yet.... wonder if it'll work? Seems to be a split metal ring instead of an o ring.
Thanks I am a old 20 gauge remington LW hunter they used o rings.But I have used my Raptor this Ky Season with out any failures .
Sorry, to many forced stupid commercials.
An ad block will cure that. I haven't seen a commercial in ages, except when I turn it off and forget to turn it on again. Everything plays straight through when I use it.
why you gotta say it's ya wife's gun, be a man, own up to your weapon 🤣😅
It is my wife's gun. It's a youth model and doesn't fit me at all.......
@@murphyfirearmstraining3630 i was joking, my apologies if I came off wrong, I own one lol well my wife bought it, I wanted a shot gun and she wasn't letting me buy another so, talked her into her going to get it for me lol well this was the out come 😅🤫she doesn't like the way the lady at the counter talks, looks,etc at me lol 😀 all i wanted was a banelli m4 😅
@@rubenmendez2478 no worries. One of these days I will have to learn how to talk her into a gun that I like too (but our tastes are totally different and the stuff that fits her doesn't fit me)☹️
im first ye
Okay I get the need to pad runtime and the Midwestern need to give background on your gun, parts, and accessories; BUT
I WANT TO REMOVE MY VIPER’S ACTION NOW, NOT LISTEN TO YOU LIST OFF WHY YOU PUT A THIRD PARTY PLUG ON T HE TUBE
Not padding runtime, just moving at my pace. Sorry it's not concise enough
@@murphyfirearmstraining3630 you’re good dude. when I watched the vid I had my partially dissembled shotgun on my lap and a NEED for an immediate solution. The manual has two tiny pictures to go off of and a vague paragraph on removing the bolt
There’s another spring in the silver pole don’t take it out unless you haven’t cleaned it in forever it is a bitch to get back in mine is a little different though
Thanks for this video, I was looking everywhere for an Armsan Cre8 disassembly video and couldn’t find one, it’s so similar that this was brilliant. I managed to get the gun all jammed up….Thanks for posting😅
