Yesterday evening I was able to find, and correct the problem with my rivet gun. As was mentioned in a previous response, the defect was with the large O-ring on the piston at the top of the handle. it has an O-ring at the rear to seal the oil, and both guns had O-rings that were dried out and hardened. This is why the gun was quitting after a dozen or so rivets, because the oil was leaking pass the O-ring into the stem catcher. Now it is working great, with no oil leaks. There was however one casualty in all this and that is my second gun. While I was rebuilding the first one on the bench I casually pulled the trigger to check how far back the piston was pulling, and when it evacuated the air from the lower canister, it blow the spring from my second gun off the bench, and was never to be seen again.
