I have a 98 tippman custom with a a-5 cyclone feed. I have had this gun for two years and have cleaned it regularly however I am now having  a velocity issue. I can turn the velocity screw up and down and get the gun chrono'ed but the fps is always at 150 or lower? I run off of compressed air and tried putting co2 on it and it has the same results it will not go any higher now. When I first had the gun the fps was 412.....but will not go up now. Any thoughts?

This is the wrong forum. It should be posted in Gun Maintenance and Repair.

And I think this points to a powertube problem but I don't remember.

Obviously he needs our Thoughts and Opinions before he attempts any Gun Maintenance and Repair. Duh.

^^^ Justified I believe . . . I would have let the wrong forum thing slide, but the sticky thing really bugs me.

Break out the timbers and railroad spikes.
