Terms & Conditions

Customer / user agreement:  

Upon purchase of any item, I the customer, confirm that I have read and understood the implications of fitting parts supplied by Apex Airguns LTD and understand what the items do and understand its principles of operation and how they function. 

APEX AIRGUNS Regulators and other performance parts are designed to be fitted by competent individuals who have understood the implications of fitting them and are confident to fit them effectively. We recommend you have a practical experience of problem solving, and a good technical understanding of mechanical principles and the effects/symptoms they present in airguns.We recommend access to a workshop to install these items effectively and efficiently. We do not know or judge you or your third parties’ skills or the facilities available to you or them. This is your decision to make. 

Models of airgun vary slightly from country to country, across the globe and in some instances batch to batch in relation to tolerances and parts fitted. You the customer must understand that a degree of alteration may be required to either or both the Regulator / Product / Airgun to both fit and get the best out of what you have purchased to set it for your needs. 

Making a regulator operate efficiently in your airgun, to give the characteristics you are looking for, only happens when the outlet valve andhammer assembly isbalanced correctly to give the correct valve duration. Achieving the correct balance often means the settings for the hammer and valve are often very different than what was originally required, especially in unregulated airguns which you regulate. 

For low-mid power airguns (10-15 ft/lb)this can be very challenging to setup correctly.If you are not mechanically minded or a patient & precise person, willing to make notes on your ‘tune settings’ fitting a regulator may not be the project for you. We would advise you seek a professional gunsmith to help you or do the work for you.  

To tuneregulated airgun setup correctly isa complex and timely process. You will need to make notes and take lots of information down. We recommend as a minimum you do a full shot string test on your rifle using a chronograph before doing any work, so you have some data to start from. Doing this test may show an underlying issue which you should fix before, or investigate during, the fitting of your regulator. We recommend all orings are replaced while the rifle is disassembled to prevent leaks in the future.

We recommend you have at least 2 new tins of pellets (1000+ shots) you can use to test your rifle, before, during and after final installation, changing pellet types and trying to do comparative graphs of power and consistency is pointless, to get accurate results you can easily work with you need to change one thing at a time. 

APEX Regulators have been developed over 10 years of rigorous in the field testing, by shooters, for shooters at the highest levels of performance for target and hunting use and manufactured to give years of low maintenance performance for your airgun.They are sold on a ‘DIY’ self fit & maintenance basis, for further information please see our Video Guides page or Youtube Channel. 

The modular design of some models of the APEX regulators allows all units to be independently tested and pressure checked before shipping, in some instances the units are then supplied alongside the relevant ‘body case’ to fit into your rifle. This allows replacement body cases to be purchased if you choose to fit the reg to a different rifle, or if the case is damaged, it can be replaced. All the manuals for pressure adjustment, stripping down, servicing, and general maintenance are available as Video Guides or as PDF Downloads on the Manuals page. They are designed to be simple to service and maintain consisting of only three parts, of which two are working parts and only one moving part which engages with just two O-rings, the APEX Regulator can also be fully serviced for leaks without the need to alter the regulator setting.

Please remember it is the legal responsibility of the air rifle user to keep their air rifle under the legal power of the country they reside in at the time of fitting aftermarket times. 

Fitting aftermarket parts such as seal kits, replacement parts or tuning parts can alter the power output of your air rifle. During and after fitting part your air rifle should be check with a chronograph. Ideally a chronograph where you shot through two beams of light is preferred to a radar biased chronograph as these light field chronographs are more accurate and provide more reliable results. 

The product being supplied, guarantee and disclaimer
 

A regulator a very simple pressure switch, which opens and closes to keep air pressure at the outlet valve near to a constant pressure down to its set working pressure. 

APEX components are manufactured to the highest quality ISO 9001, ISO 9100 Space, Aerospace & Defense standards. We design and manufacture these parts and guarantee them free from defect, quality checked, leak tested, and pressure set at time of dispatch. 

We take no responsibility whatsoever as to how you use our products. We have no control over the fitting of them and offer no guarantee as to power, accuracy or consistency of your airgun, as these are all down to many externally contributing factors and the skill and time taken by the purchaser or his agent fitting the regulator. 

It is very important that you make sure that all purchased parts have been fitted correctly and that the safe working of the equipment has not been compromised in anyway. By purchasing, accepting, and using these parts, you and you alone are accepting all responsibility in the operation and safety of the gun or guns that these parts are being installed into, and will hold no other person or persons responsible. Please use caution when using these products or find a qualified airgun-smith or tuner who can do the work for you. 

Before you order, please note
 

The word ‘regulator’ is used in reference to this product being a pressure regulator to maintain a certain pressure of air, and not a power regulator or tool for adjusting power higher. A regulator, no matter what make or model, is a force biased pressure switch, which opens and closes to keep air pressure at the outlet side near to constant down to a set working pressure. This will only keep an airguns power FT LBS / Joules to the power at which it has already been set to at a set working pressure. The Regulator will help maintain a set power over a wider fill pressure range, other modifications can be done at the same time to increase OEM power figures and shot counts.
