    Posted: 01 July 2008 at 4:19pm

At least once a day of play, my remote hose (usually at the worst time) releases from the marker and flails around while hissing "Shoot in this direction!" When I connect the coupler, I give it a good tug to make sure of its connection. The fitting on my X-7 in in good condition. It would happen to my other markers too so I ended up replacing the fitting on the markers with same results. When it bursts off it leaves the O-ring on the marker coupling. It usually happens after a couple of hours of play. Suggestions?

slide checks are not crap they make it easier to disconnect your gun with out taking the tank off your back. or having a second person turn your tank off or you.

The Guy is right it is more than likelya missing bearing in the quick disconnect. your can buy just the female nipple end for it and replace just that and everything else will still work with the new one.
