i've finally got my gun apart. Unfortunatly i had to drill out all the frame bolts, and as for the oxidation I talked about in my last post, it also looks as though i'll need all new internal parts which I cant find n ewhere. N e body kno where i can get new part (including hardware such as frame bolts) online?

Heh, if its that bad, i think its time for a new gun.

Send me your old one. I'll clean it up and use it in a future build-off.

Doesnt anyone read stickies? All the info you need for new frame bolts and nuts are right there in my replacement parts guide. You can get workable replacements from any hardware store.

Well im prety sure i can just clean up the rear bolt, sprint, and pen. Really the only thing that needs replaced is the powertube and front bolt. Linkage rod is ok. And need new gas line and tank adapter to be on the safe side... My markers malfuntion is an air blockage so i need everthing fron the tank adapter to the powertube

You should be able to easily fix any blockage that isn't in the actual airline.  (Although this may require valve disassembly.)

I can't believe you asked this.  What do you think based on previous experience?

well after taking a close look, along with caked on corrossion, the o-rings are cracked as well. So now im wondering... Could bad o-ring combined with the damage cause the gun do loose pressure as it does? And secondly if dissassembly of the valve is required... how do i open it up?

honestly at this point it sounds like you have so much work with it I think you should just make your cuz buy you a new one.  Just throwing it out there.

I agree with thejudge, get a new marker. I'm not saying throw out the oxidized one, but have your cousin pay for a replacement. Fix the oxidized one when you have the time and money. Your cousin wrecked it, you should hold him responsible. Better to just have him pay for a new one then not be able to play until you can deal with all these problems. Not to mention it will probably take some time even after you've got everything back together to work out any minor problems. And after all this, there may be some irreversible damage.

Better idea.  Sell him your marker for the price of a new one.  Repairing it becomes his problem if he wants to play.

Mack's idea isn't bad, but I still say have him pay for a new marker for you. Then you have the current one for build-offs, parts, experiments, etc.
