the only thing i can think of is

A: you have cheep/old paintballs that dont work,         & nbsp;         & nbsp;      B: Your barrel is rigid somewhere and cuts your paintballs, (make sure the whole barrel is smooth on the inside)          ;           ;           ;        C: You have your gun on too high of pressure. (turn it down so its between 275 and 200 fps, this is where i keep mine at) Sometimes if you have it really high, the force of it will burst the ball in the chamber.        &nbs p;         &nbs p;         &nbs p;         &nbs p;         &nbs p;         &nbs p;         &nbs p;          D: Sometimes if you shoot your gun too fast the ball doesnt get into place before the bolt coems and thus breaks the ball. (on the custom 98 this sometimes happen, i dont know about the A5)

These are what i can think of and hope it helped

I dont know what to say...

Check your velocity level. It could be to high!

It could be like stated above a high velocity, old or bad paint, or a dirty barrel. Make sure your paint is fresh and sphericle. As for the barrel ensure that there is no dirt grit or oil in it.
