i just got my c3 two days ago and gassed it up for the first time and fired about 15 shots but the velocity was all crazy so i decided to adjust the regulator (bad idea) like it says in the manual, so i turned it out all the way clockwise then 1/2 turn counterclockwise and tryed to fire it several times and it didnt ignite (i repeated this process about 5-10 more times and still nothing) then i tryed turning the reg in counterclockwise just about all the way then turn it back out all the way out clockwise and then a 1/2 counterclockwise turn and it fired finally so i turn it another 1/2 counterclockwise and it stopped firing and ive been trying get it right for like 20 minutes but i still cant get it to shoot at all.  so if someone could help me that would be great.

Be more conservative in the movement of the adjustment. When you finally get in to the proper range for it to fire again, leave it and just run it there for a few dozen shots. Then move the adjustment only about 1/8 turn at a time.

My c3 fired before but now it will not fire at all. I have tried adjusting the regulator more than once but i can not seem to get it to fire. This gun is new as well as the propane tank so i dont know what to do. I guess I will have to take it apart to see if somthing is astray, or can anyone offer me some advice?

Save your breath. Trying to explain honor, or not needing to shoot 50 bps to kids nowdays is like talking to a wall.
