My A5 is brand new and I am a noob to paintballing so I need a little help.  When I twist the barrel to remove it the barrel adaptor turns with very easily.  In other words the barrel isn't tightly locked.  The barrel along with the barrel adaptor turn freely and easily for 1/4 of a turn before coming to a stopping point, that requires a little extra force to get past to unscrew the barrel.  Is this free 1/4 turn normal for an A5?  Any help will be appreciated!!

Your adapter is loose.  First, tighten all the screws - the two up front by the barrel, and the one that attaches the Cyclone.  If it still is loose, call Tippmann.  This is a fairly common problem, and they will take care of you.
