Watch our A5 maintence vid on our website http://fearpaintball.net

I THINK the problem may lie in your valve inside your power tube. Theres an o-ring and washer in there than can come out sometimes. This happened to me, I checked it, put the parts back in and it worked fine.

if you did cock the gun first, then your valve is not seating properly, just call tippmann and get a new one, i had this same problem.
Canadians do it on top.
