washed my tippy 98 wrong?

[Justice4All]

hey guys, i think i did my washing wrong, i made a really bad choice and i poured water down my barrel when it was connected to my gun and i even think some of the water got into my acutal gun, dont even bother calling me a retard for doing it wrong or whatever, because i already know i did it wrong, so my question is, did i defect/ruin my gun by doing that?

[Rbrtndrws]

depends... if you have just done this within the past day or so, i dont think it will harm your gun if you just take it apart and dry it out, but if you have left this like this for weeks, you may get some rust.

hope that helps,
rob

[kraziekurtis]

And why did you do that? :eyes: :rolleyes:


:laugh:

[Justice4All]

i juust did it today, so what should i do now? i think its dry i did it about 10 mins ago.

[kraziekurtis]

Take it apart and dry everything off.

Follow the manual's instructions and use the manual's diagram to understand how to put it back together.

[Justice4All]

awwwwwwww man how long will this take me? the barrel looks dried why wouldnt the inside be dry too?

[Justice4All]

what are the defects if rust occurs in my gun?, i put a blow drier right next to my gun, hope that helps...

If you don't wanna take the time to correct your stupid actions, don't make stupid actions.

[Justice4All]

sorry....

what are the defects if rust occurs in my gun?, i put a blow drier right next to my gun, hope that helps, i just looked at my gun and its pretty dry and hot right now so im letting it cool down, do you think its ok now? what would happen if rush occoured?

[-=ReD-hAzE=-]

just let it dry out... it won't hurt anything... even if the entire thing was rusted it would still work...

don't worry about it... just don't fire it with water in it... co2 + water = ice... ice + o-rings = brake... o-rings + brake = bad

[Justice4All]

life just keeps getting worse and worse, i fired a couple of saftey shots to see if it was still working and yes it iced up pretty bad, is my gun tottally broken now? the ice is gone since i blow dried my gun, should i just bascilly buy a new gun or get it fixed up my at my local shop?

[MuffinMan14]

bring it to the shop, but if you have the money and want to get a new gun, go for it!

[-=ReD-hAzE=-]

the gun is fine...
all ice does it kill o-rings...

let your gun dry out...
its fine...

if all else fails... send it to me...:wink2:

[Justice4All]

yea its now too hot so im making it get cool, im sorry im really a new noob, what do the o rings do? i know i have a pack of them in my case thing because my gun came with it.

[kraziekurtis]

O-rings protect from CO2,N2,Compressed Air leaks.

[Justice4All]

oh yea i see my c02 ring, its still on, should i switch it since its damaged?

[kraziekurtis]

Check the O-ring on the bolt too.

Regarding switching the O-ring, if it ain't leaking it doesn't need to be switched is what I always go by. :)

[moronic]

WOW :biglaugh: :dunce:

you should be fine just take apart your gun and dry the insides with a paper towel.

if the o-rings aren't completely busted put some oil on them, and put a couple of drops in the asa and then take a couple of shoots like 10-15. remember to do this with the barrel of so you don't get oil in the barrel. ;)

i mean without the barrel :eek:

WHOA!!! Don't you mean WITHOUT the barrel?!?!!?!?!?! :eek:

[Tommy_pball]

does it have any upgrades on it? because at the field when we clean the rentals we just run water through the feed tube and dry fire then to clean out the chamber...doesnt hurt the gun at all...think of it this way....the gun is designed to be able to have paint splooged all over...what do you think is worse water? or paint? all water will do is make your gun wet...wont hurt it any

[moronic]

a mag can shoot underwater

[Raptorz922]

My friend's dad has a bunch of SL-68s and all he does is shake em around in a bucket of water to clean em out.

[Turambar]

Like Tommy said, people clean their tippies using running water through the breach so you don't have to worry about it.
