Ok well i posted a topic regarding leaks in my a-5 not too long ago, and thanks to you guys, i was able to fix that. It was my valve, but no my a-5 won't cock. What could the problem be? Thanks for the help and i have an egrip w/ WAS board and a JCS trigger if it matters. I guess it could my the sear not catching the bolt but i haven't touched the trigger assembly at all lately and it was working fine before i had my leaking issues and rebuilt the valve...

Is your front bolt in backwards? That'll make cocking it hard.

It sounds like your saying it wont lock in when you cock it , if this is true , your sear spring may be missing or fallen out of place. If its just hard to cock, I have to agree with Bango

Yeah, what's happening is it is hard to cock. It's not that it won't lock in place. I checked the front bolt, its in coorectly but i noticed the valve is all messed up again. I must not have reassembled it correctly. However, the whole reason for my disassembling it was because the valve internals were out of place. That was weird because i hadn't touched my valve previous to that. Anyways, maybe I'll have to go buy a new valve and hope I don't waste $35 in doing so. Thanks!
