Hey folks,

the problem is il start to fire and my gun will uncock. the psi in my nitro is about 2000. When i cock it back to fire sometimes it will uncock again. I've had it happen to me 3 or 4 times yesterdays and 2 times were i had a dead on view of my dad while i was in a bunker and it happened twice in a row. my marker set up was the following yesterday
14'' teardrop, full aluminum interior, polished internals,rt trigger, double trigger, nitro, rva, smart parts on/off valve, drop forward.

Now today it happened again and i have the cyclone on. Is it possible my gun isn't using enought air? i shoot about 280 fps. Would turning my velocity valve up and compensating with my rva to obtain 280 fps stop the gun from uncocking?

when you say uncock, do you mean when you shoot, it doesn't recock, or just out of no where it just uncocks, and the bolt shoots foreward?

well im not sure how clear i can get on this, it just doesn't cock back to fire again it stalls and i have to cock it back then i can shoot normaly again, i think i solved the problem by using the rva.
