Has anyone else had their FL wear out? I called Tipp and they said to send it in and they would re-sand blast it for me at no charge. Has anyone done this? I wonder if it would work like a new one. My gun isn't even a year old but I have put about 25,000 pb through it. When it was new the pb's would lift a little but now they fly like I was using stock barrel. Just thought I would ask.

 

Thanks,

Domination & Devastation

i was wondering the same thing, but mine shoots far but is incredibly innacurate.  I think I just have internal problems though.

Same thing happened to mine. Getting ready to send it in this week. If you want to wait, Ill let you know how it turns out whenever it gets back in, unless someone else here has tried it before.

Yes, it will be like "new" again, jus like when you first opened the box, installed it to the marker and used it on the field.

Don't send it in if it is doing somthing slightly wrong. Before you send it, spend a few days on a rigoris cleaning cycle. Every day run flaming hot water thru it, then boil some water, and let it soak in boiling water for awhile (OFF THE HEAT). After that, rip off one CONNECTED string of Bounty and thread it through, run it back and forth a few times... Then when you send it out, they won't just clean it and give it back.
