In this episode, we grab an old Sheridan Streak off the shelf, and disassemble it. In the process, we realize that we are not the first to venture into this airgun, and that it suffers from problems that weren't apparent at first. This is the air gunsmiths nightmare, the Streak from Hell. Still, the video should help Streak owners who wish to tear down their air rifle, and avoid the problems found on this particular gun.
Note that the valve retainer nut has a beveled side and a flat side. The beveled side goes forward, flat to the rear UNLESS the threads are buggered up, in which case you have to reverse the nut.
Youtubers will usually take apart the specimen prior to filming, in order to make sure that filming goes smoothly without any surprises. I didn't do that in this instance. So this is what I get for not properly preparing in advance. Lesson learned. Again!!
