    Posted: 16 April 2013 at 8:12pm
Earlier this week I broke the connection between my gasline and body of my Tippmann A-5 playing some woodsball, and there was no way to fix it without purchasing a new gasline. I've been trying to remove the rest of the old gasline so I can replace it, but it doesn't seem to be wanting to come off. I'm hesitant to start ripping at it with pliers incase I damage something, so I'm wondering if there's an easier way to remove the gasline from the air supply adapter besides ripping at it with pliers, or if the gun can handle it and I should just go at it. Any help is welcome. Thanks!

Which end is stuck? The end with the tank adapter or the end that meets to tombstone?
