| don't get another stock one, the plastic is not very strong, get a DOP Proseal Aluminum one, much stronger and better. |

I hate to say this cause I'm probably gonna look dumb. Are you sure it's your tube and not your valve. |

well, it doesnt seem to becoming from where the valve goes in, but where the front of the tube is. ------------- -Tippy 98c -Polished Interns. -RD Double Trig. -5'' Drop -j+j ceram 14'' -12v revy x-board -SmartParts Grips -Pen Spring Mod -Milled Rear Sight -Filled Front Grip -Blue Paint job |

Yeah, when the valve is leaking, the hissing will come from the skinny end of the tube. Try attaching the air, cocking, and firing. You may also be low on air. If neither one of those is the case, it's probably one of the O-Rings in the valve itself. Bruce A. Frank has an awsome post on valve disassembly if your interested. It's like the last one on the topic. http://tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp?TID=62300&PN=1 - http://tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp?TID=62300&a mp;a mp;PN=1 |
