Had my Tippmman A-5 for about 2 months.  Ever since i got it it consistently broke paint in the barrel.  Since the problem i began using the best paint out there, yet it still does it.  Do not know what else i can do.  Super frustrated please help.

If it's in the barrel, the barrel bore is too small or the paint is too fragile.

as said above, to small of a barrel for to big of paint. buy a slightly smaller paint, or buy a slightly bigger bore barrel

in general, the paint should fit inside the barrel without rolling out just from gravity, but should come out with a fairly by trying to exhale through the barrel with the paint inside
