Cocking prob???

[Xander]

When I was playing in a woods game with my friends today my Piranha STS G2 would sometimes randomly try to uncock, because I had balls feeding into the gun all it would do is crush my balls and stop my fire(it would never fully uncock because of the balls) and I would have to pull it back. Does anybody know what is wrong and how to fix it???

"it says paintball gun burps, then sounds like full auto and fails to recock". my gun did not sound like full auto it would just try to uncock.

Did you oil the gun after you got it? Spyders and Piranhas come bone dry. Other than that, I don't know enough about Spyders and the like to diagnose problems.

That could be my prob I was noticing that it was dry but, then I decided to go mt biking(I'm way lazy) thanx. :)

By the way why would it uncock because it is dry???

What oil would you suggest for that type of oiling?
