How-to: fix egrip recocking problem

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

    ok, ever since i got my egrip i had a problem
with it not always recocking all the way. it would recock almost
completly but would not fire, then i pulled the cocking handle back
again, it would fire. i just put a new hammer in, so it wasnt that,
which led me to believe it was the sear. i opened it up, took a piece
of q-tip shaft, and put it in the hole in the sear so it wouldnt slide
back and forth. i took it out yesterday put it on full-autp and shot an
entire 20 oz through with only one problem, my tank had a block of dry
ice inside it, and the tank was frozen inside the harness. i then found
out that tippmann makes a replacement sear with a circle hole instead
of oval, but the q-tip is a good quick fix.

i'll be a good boy and ask to have this stickied for a couple weeks
this time.  it seems like a lot of people are having this same
problem, so i though this would help.  i guess i'll only post this
in one place as well, man, im on a roll!

Sticky?
