if you sustain high rates of fire, the CO2 won't get a chance to expand all the way, and you will get pressure drops. There won't be enoung pressure to recock your gun.

*edit* oops I forgot the solution. Go with a remote line or expansion chamber. Try out cheaper solutions first though, like the new drive spring.
