I have what I presume is a Umarex-manufactured, "Colt"-licensed, 1911 style CO2 pistol. I say "presume" because I've had it for years and it doesn't have Umarex on it, but they list this same pistol in their catalog. The current one definitely says "Umarex" right in front of "Made in Germany".
About a year ago, I put a CO2 cartridge in and the gas immediately started leaking out. Took it apart and the problem is the main gas valve where all the "stuff" starts happening. I searched online for hours and couldn't find anything on how to get parts. I sort of gave up back then, but I'm re-opening the quest to get it fixed. This thing is pretty accurate, powerful, has a remarkably nice single action trigger (it also fires double action), and fun to shoot. Me and my grandson enjoy shooting the air guns in the yard.
Umarex doesn't list any replacement parts, parts diagrams with part numbers......nothing at all on their site. I've never actually contacted them yet.
Anyone know a source for parts for this thing? I also just emailed Pyramid Air to see if they could help.
THANKS

<p>The illustrious military history of the Colt M1911 goes back over 100 years. This is one of the most successful ordnance pistols ever made, and it is still included as personal equipment in many military units around the world. This authentic CO₂-powered replica is now writing its own...
