Im having trouble with my A-5 i just got it and was test fireing it at home and the barrel would fall of so i put it back on and after about 20-30 shots in turbo mode it fell of again it did it a couple mor times after that. Im wondering if it was the paint because i put some other paint in it and it worked ok but i dont want to be playing and have it fall out in the middle of the game.

Does your barrel have an o-ring by the threading? That might be
the problem, or your screws aren't tight enough by the front of the gun.

Its not the threading part of the barrel its the barrel adapter that conects the barrel to the gun

Tighten down the 2 front bolts on your gun.

Some A5's have loose barrel adapters. Take your barrel adapter and give
it a good heavy coat of black spray paint (on the outside, not on the
threads). Let it dry real good and it will fit tight again.

Screw the front two screws out, push the barrel all the way in, turn it to the right till it stops and then tighten the screws all the way. Good luck |

The A-5 barrels dont have o-rings but do try tightening the gun and make sure the adapter(what barrel goes into) is twisted in the right way |
