maybe you screwed it in too far

Try oiling it ,and it might have something to do with the spring

Hi! First time poster..Had the same problem, it was the clear RACHET part, you can get em from Tippmannparts.com for about $1.50 or so, buy several! More then likely this is the answer to your problem..
