On my Custom Pro, sometimes the bolt doesn't come back far enough.  But usually all I have to do is just pull it back and I'm back in business.  What could be the problem?  Could it be caused from low air pressure?

Make sure your front bolt isn't in backwards.

Yes it can be caused by low gas pressure. Are you running a regulator? CO2 or HPA?

If you are running a regulator, set it 50 lbs higher than you are running right now. Lubricate the rear bolt's "O" ring.

Make sure your Co2 isn't low. sometimes that's the problem.

Ok, I was just wondering.  My bolt isn't backwards, everything is correct on the inside.  I run Co2, and I got to thinking about it, and it usually happens a couple times before my gun burps

If it only happens right before the gun burps then its low Co2.

If it always happens then it could be a liquid Co2 problem but thats unlikely.

How long have you been using a Tippmann?

I've been using my Tippmann since Christmas, so about a month and a week or two

when u pull it back again u only have to pull it back a little bit right? if so then I have the same problem. and its not because of co2 or ball breaks/jams. still trying to figure out what it is tho :/

Makes sure your valve bolts are on tight(not too tight cause you can strip them very easily).
