The O-ring that goes next to the washer (next to the spring drive) has to be placed after you put the washer in so that the chunky O-ring can keep the washer and spring inside the bolt. Other than that, you might want to check your valve body inside your marker. I had a problem where my tippmann x7 was leaking through the tombstone, which happened to be a broken valve body instead. ------------- Tippmann X7 Flatline Barrel Response Trigger 15 bps 14" quite rifled barrel Vertical Folding Grip Laser Sight V Force Pro Vantage Mask |

If there are any- ANY cuts or gashes on the O-ring, than that could also be your problem. Try going to a local paintball shop and get some expert advice from the techies at the shop. ------------- Tippmann X7 Flatline Barrel Response Trigger 15 bps 14" quite rifled barrel Vertical Folding Grip Laser Sight V Force Pro Vantage Mask |

Worst case scenario, you could send it to Palmers Pursuit. They can/will fix any marker ever. Most techies should be able to fix it, but many do not know what they're doing. Hmmm...... Does Tippmann still service them? -------------
