I had the same problem, braought it to the shop and they told me an O-Ring was missing. $20 for that next time ill do it myself, if i only knew then what it was.

Hammer O-ring usually. Could be a couple other things, but that seems to be the most likely one in that case.

Ah the famous Tippmann doesnt recock problem, I've had this happen to me a couple times. Well first make sure your c02 or HPA tank is full. Second open you gun up and check the hammer o-rings and make sure they're tight. When this happened to me one of the o-rings actually came off and I didnt know till the end of the day why my gun was screwed. Well anyway, if it is the o-ring, Tippmann sells o-ring seal kits, try and find one cheap on ebay.
