I think i stripped my velocity screw.  If i turn it in, it won't stop, it just keeps turing and turning and turning.  I was thinking about it getting it fixed.  It works fine, if i turn it out it still does, but i'm afriad that one day it won't.  Is it hard to fix? or is this somthing that i have to send into tippmann to get fixed?

If you stripped just the screw, then it's an easy fix that entails a trip to the hardware store. If you stripped the Power Tube, then you need to order a new one from Tippmann.

quit screwing it in and in and in and in.  That is a bad thing to do to any screw/bolt.  Causes the surrounding threads to strip most of the time, then you have to retap the hole and usually in a larger size.

you're no daisey.
