    Posted: 03 March 2010 at 11:59am
So i just got my A5 3 or 4 weeks ago, the H. E. E grip had been working fine until I went out to shoot. I chopped a ball so I emptyed the hopper but there was one in the chamber held by the dettent(sp?), tried to fire tthe gun to get the ball out but nothing happened. Checked cocking that was fine and after a half an hour of playing with it, it finally fired once and hasent fired since. Checked battery, but didnt want to look to far into the trigger  assymbly just in case but I took it out and looked at it and I am missing the slider and 2 pins which I understand to strike the sear. I had never taken apart the trigger b4, Is it possible to fire the slider out of the gun ? what should I do?

Go to www.tippmannparts.com and look up the manual for the HE Egrip and compare with what you have to see if there are any missing parts. It is not possible to shoot any of the part out of the marker. I would suspect, you simply need a new fresh battery.
