Watch our A5 maintence vid on our website http://fearpaintball.net - http://fearpaintball.net

I THINK the problem may lie in your valve inside your power tube. Theres an o-ring and washer in there than can come out sometimes. This happened to me, I checked it, put the parts back in and it worked fine.

Or make sure you cock your gun before you put co2 on

if you did cock the gun first, then your valve is not seating properly, just call tippmann and get a new one, i had this same problem.
