| I bought a gun about 3 weeks ago and have just now received my paintball tank. I filled it up and am trying to fire the gun but it is not firing. The trigger itself doesnt pull back very far. I have a tippmann A5 and I have tried Co2 and Compressed air but nothing seems top be working. I put a stock on it so maybe I didnt put the spring in correctly? Can anyone help me please. |

| I Just filled the tank, the safety is off and the trigger doesnt pull back all the way. The cock on the front of the gun doesnt seem to do anything. |

| Ok I fixed it. I went back and took everything off and then back on according to the manual and it works now. |
