i just bought my tippmann a5 from my friend who has used it before and i tried it with some disposable co2 canisters i bought for it and i screwed one in and tried to fire it without the barrel on and the paint ball just popped out of the end like it had no power. Does anyone know what could be wrong?

it really sounds like it has no air then. Those disposable cartridges aren't the most reliable things.
