| im new to paintball and i got an A-5 with the e-tigger and a flatline barrel. the problem is that the balls keep breaking and it sometimes seems like theres not enough pressure to shoot the balls they come out but they dont seem to go very far. also when i cock the gun it would shoot and then it would stop shooting and i would have to cock it again |

Wrong forum, you wanna delete this thread and post it in the Gun Maintence and Repair section. And remember, posting in the Marker Gallery must have a picture along with the thread. ------------- WHOEVER *reb* IS WHY WOULD YOU THINK I HAVE AN OVERSIZED SIG!?!?!!

Wrong section...this is MARKER GALLERY Anyway, make sure you tank has enough air in it & it's screwed on properly. Also make sure your tank is not faulty...by the way is it CO2 or compressed air??? -------------

sounds like low pressure in the tank, or a bad valve. take it to where you bought it, and have them check it out.
but also, this is the marker gallery. you need to post a pic to start a thread here. john. ------------- ProLite M-16 18 AA Ak47 A5 Egrip flatline M-1 Garande Automag 18 AA 98C RT Thompson w/ Drum mag A5 MP5, Egrip, Armson Phantom,Stock, 12gr 98C RT HK33 Flatline UTTER DESTRUCTION OF QUIXTAR! |

the problem when you have to recock is broken paint and bolt dosent allow the bolt to recock because the paint makes it slippery , or tank is bad, i had that happen to me tank would work on one gun but not the other -------------

All right pal I will throw you a bone...But next time post this in the right room.....Well if you have the e-grip and you have a double trigger (that isn't the jcs trigger....) chances are that you forgot to take off the metal piece around the trigger...There is a little pin that is holding the metel shroud on the actual trigger...It is a metal piece a spring and a pin holding it on the trigger....The reason it is doing this is because for every shot you take it is causing it to shoot off two rounds so the gun can't keep up with that. Try doing that ....and if it doesn't help just send me a PM and i will try and help ya out
