Ok, im not sure what the problem is. I was hoping some people here can
help me. I am chopping like crazy. I am shooting the stock mechanical trigger on the CPro. Last time I played, i didn't chop a single ball. However i was told that it was possible to outshoot a gravity feed hopper with a mechanical trigger, so i tried to do so. Lo and behold i did. So i went and bought an empire reloader 2 agitating hopper. Today i started chopping like crazy. Also, when i shoot without the barrel (14" teardrop) on and without paint, i get "snow" (frozen Co2) coming out from the bolt port (im not using rocket cock, i have the open port on the side of the gun). all the O-rings that i can see without taking apart the valve/power tube on the inside of the gun after basic disassembly are fine. Also, the gun is skipping every now and then (i shoot, the bolt goes forward, and then doesn't make it back all the way and is fired forward again, catching the sear the second time). I checked the sear and it's fine. No obstructions in the bolt area. PLEASE HELP! ------------- CPro (w/ polished internals) 14" Bigshot BT SBS Various Rails NcSTAR D4B Macro AA 68/45

Lets see make sure your bolt is clean no paint left in there check and see if theres any obstructions in the elbow and for the c02 part it was probably cold so the gas stayed as a liquid so it would be the best for your gun to change to HPA. -------------

Hmmm... i considered this. But i had two friends playing today with A5's on Co2 and they worked fine.

wait why would liquid co2 cause me to chop and skip? could it be a problem with the power tube?

Wait its skipping because of cold Co2? Also, i wasn't outshooting my hopper (only shooting 5-8 bps on a 12-14 bps hopper.i think the detent might have been in backwards though, fixed now. Would a tank cover help the cold co2 problem or is HPA the only solution? What do i need in order to switch to HPA? do i just need the tank or is there something else? ------------- CPro (w/ polished internals) 14" Bigshot BT SBS Various Rails NcSTAR D4B Macro AA 68/45
