    Posted: 12 December 2005 at 11:13pm
I went to the paintball field this saturday and my gun would not stop double firing. I spent all morning trying to figure out why it was doing this. then I changed my co2 tank. this helped and the gun worked finr for the rest of the day. then when I got home I was trying to figure out what was wrong with it and dry fired with both tanks. My gun started doing double and triple fires before it would properly recock. I know its not my tank because it was doing this with both tanks. I suspect it might be the hammer but not sure. The sear cath slot on the hammer has a ridge on the top and is at about a 60 degree angle. I have already tried tightening my power tube and oiling my ASA. I would also like tonote that my gun is practically brand new with only about 2000 rounds through it.
you know your screwed when your buddy turns to you in the middle of a firefight and says oops

Make sure the "O" ring on the hammer (rear bolt) is oiled. The sear spring may need to be a bit tighter.
