i havn't fired my A-5 in a few months, went out shooting yesterday just for some fun and noticed that every time i fired it, a small bit of Co2 was also coming out just above the trigger. Mostly felt it with my trigger finger. what i need to know is if this is normal for an A-5, and i just never noticed it before, or, do i have a faulty O-ring somewhere. ------------- my a-5 upgrades: jj ceramic barrel red dot scope remote coil on the way: x chamber, e grips |

It's normal. The blowback gases have to go somewhere, and it just may be more noticeable because it's colder (??). ------------- You are never beaten until you admit it. - G. Patton |

This is perfectly normal. Its the blowback gases like he said. It is easier to notice in the cold; especialy if you suck up some liquid Co2. -------------

Well then, most likely an O-ring needs to be replaced. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!
