So yesterday I was playing paintball, and I let my friend borrow my Pro/Carbine, and when he was playing, this little silver hollow tube fell out of the barrel, and now the gun won't work.  Normally I can fix most small problems, but I have no ideas with this.  Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Check the schematic of the Pro/Carbine.

I'd bet that hollow silver tube is your powertube... and it came loose because the velocity screw is gone.

It's not a difficult re-install, if you still have a velocity screw.

Edited to add: Now that I think about it, if it is indeed the powertube... that also means your front bolt was missing? As the powertube wouldn't have flown out with the front bolt in place.

I would disassemble your ProCarbine, check against the schematic to see what parts you may or may not be missing.

I had this type of problem when I first got my P/C. The powertube itself actually broke right at the end where it meets the front bolt, and half the powertube came out. The only way to fix it is to get a new powertube.

Well I seem to have just fixed it, and all I did was take everything apart, then put it back together.  Just went in the backyard and shot it and it works fine.  Thanks for the help guys.
