Ok recently I have purchased a Tippmann 98 custom. Along with the gun I bought a GTA drop forward, and GTA expansion chamber. And a 16" 32 degrees carbon fiber barrell. And I run my gun on 20 oz co2. But lately I have been out to play and my gun will shoot one good ball and the next it will click, like the gun has been dry fired. And sometimes it will double fire but the bolt will not reset itself. Every time the gun misfires like this the bolt will not reset. Please give me some help |

make sure your ball latch is in correctly. if its backwards, it will slow down the bolt and cause it to not cycle right if at all and not open the valve. also check if that large gray o-ring is between the bolt and end cap. and finaly, check if your valve bolts (right reciever half) are loose, missing, or stripped. if loose, be careful not to overtighten and strip out. -------------

That happened to me, but what I did was got a faster feeder to keep up with my finger demands, and I run it on HPA. No more problems since. ------------- <Removed sig for violation of Clause 4 of the New Sig Rules> |

The problem could be in the internal valve located under the bolts. Look for a tight connection. ------------- KMH |
