valve body cracked

[canadianpber]

when i was playin this weekend i was very pissed off when i only got 350 shots off my 9once CO2 when i usally get 600-650 so when i got home i deciced to take my gun apart completly and get every thing clean since it was all greasey from paint splater and i wanted to know what happened to my gun to get that horrible efficency so i took the valve body off and theres a crack from the back all the way to where my SS hose screws in, so i screwed my CO2 in to the ASA when the valve was still out of the gun and NO leak but i think its leaking everytime i shoot but im not sure because the sound of the gun droweds out the sound of any leak there might be so if anyone has any ideas on howi could fix this please let me know also i remember see a SS valave body somewhere on the net if anyone knows where this is please post a link or something thx

first off, how can you shoot the gun without the valve in????

Without the valve, you wouldn't be able to hold a charge of air.

secondly, C02 pressure flutuates with the temperature outside, so if you were playing on a cold day, you might have been using more liquid than on a warm day, which means less shots.

Really, don't do what you don't know what your getting into.

well if u knew how to read you could figure out that i obviously screwed the tank into the asa witch was attached to a SS hose witch was attached to the valave that isnt that hard to figure out and as for the guy the said learn how to use punctuation i didnt ask for help with spelling i asked for help with my gun

Call tippmann and they will send you a new one. If it's the same thing that is broken as mine (the black tube that holds the valve called a power tube) Tippmann will send you a new one for free :D

I had a valve problem on my m98, it was leaking, and well the dude ended up stripping out the threads, and i had to buy a new valve, that ran me $30, then i thought a 10in hose would be nice, extra slack so i can move it down so it doesnt bother me, ran me a another $6,
