Tombstone latch, or tombstone.  I would replace both, or contact Tippmann through their contact page and see what they say. Make sure the latch is good and the push pin is in.

Good luck.

ive found my fuault with my marker, i installed a rap4 mp5 style mag which replaces as push pin and a small screw with two larger screws.on inspecting the back onthe tonmb stone adaptor ive found when screwing the front screw in the push pin hole its been scrating the tomb stone adaptor, so when the marker is gased up the presure is causing the tombstone adaptor to slip down allowing the internal valve to pop!!! so people with the rap4 mp5 mag beware.
