trying to help someone on a private forum and need info fast:

hey i need help on fixing my gun i used it once then i cleaned it after the game when i tried to use it again next game it didn't fire properly so i played with some one elses gun when i finished the game i tried my gun again but it only worked when i aimed the gun down when i aimed it upwards it just fired a very short shot and didn't cack back or cycle the cyclone will someone please tell me how to fix this thanx

continued- i was tried 2 different bottles full of CO2 both pure energy bottles i tried firing with my velocity all the way up 3/4 up 1/2 up 1/4 up and all the way down but still did the same thing. when i tried firng the gun it was between 55 and 60 that whole day. when i cleaned it i totally disassembled the gun i ran water over every part covered in paint until the paint dissolved then i dried off the parts put lube on the bolt o ring the powere tube guide bar thing for the bolt the side of the rear bolt and the rear bolt o ring then put it back together. and if it makes a difference i have an A-5 with an e-grip. oh yeah and when ever i cock it back and fire it with out CO2 it sounds and shotts a lot slower then normal

I will update with more info as soon as i get it

Without having much info , I would say check that the ball latch is in correctly

I still think it's the ball latch.
