    Posted: 04 December 2010 at 9:54am
Hey all!  I recently just got back into paintball.  I purchased a used A5 with Flatline, and R/T.  I am running with C02.  Haven't had a chance to play yet but have been going over some maintenance stuff. (As much as I know).  a new power tube and front bolt came with it but were not installed.  I installed the power tube and front bolt.  After realizing I put the dumb front bolt in backwards I got it corrected but here's the issue:

The front bolt is sticking in the marker.  I go to shoot it and it goes all slow mo, sometimes not even moving.  So i took the stock front bolt and stuck it on the new power tube.  This allowed the gun to fire but what's the issue with the front bolt?  Hope this makes sense.

 Most "upgrade" powertubes and front bolts are crap. That's the issue right there.
