I bought my A-5 off ebay and it works perfectly. BUt i tried to pull out the internals by taking out velocity screw and all the push pins and back plate. But when tried to pull the internals out they would not budge at all. Then i tried loosening some screws and cocking it but it still would not come out. Also it says there is an o-ring somewhere around the barrel adapter and i do not have one and the adapter falls out of the gun sometimes. Also i saw somewhere that new a-5s have an A on the bottom of the cyclone and i do not have that. They said if you don't just call tippmann but does tippmann replace that?

Did you take off the cyclone and it's fittings off before trying to take out the valve. The area where you unscrew the cyclone's hose is kinda tricky when trying to pull out the valve.

Did you pull off the pistol grip and tombstone adapter? You really didn't have to take the velocity screw out. Just turn it in so it is below the level of the frame.
