ok, the first time i used my BKO was at my team try outs... i had a leak up near the bolt.. as far as i knew, that was fixed Now today, at team practice, i wasn't getting enough air into the gun.. it wouldn't even dry fire :confused: so instead of using that i used my shop owners timmy, so that was cool.. but after looking at my gun he said it might be the reg. so you think i got a lemon gun/reg? or was it something i did?
P.S my guage was reading about 250-275.. so that isn't the problem.So if you can, please help

Haha good point, I see your reasoning now... :rolleyes: :P

Anywho, at my tourney today, I was having problems too. My bolt would stick forward sometimes, and it would really piss me off. When it got stuck forward it wouldn't shoot, it would just "chuff". Was that happening to you too?

no, it was just acting like i was running low on air.. nothing would shoot.. it pizzizzled me off.. hehe i did get to use a timmy though, it was like the old school ones..the one with the weird grip frame.

If you could not even dry fire it then check one of two things first: 1) Is your regulator pressure turned up (yeah, I know it sounds stupid)? 2) Take apart your regulator and look for any pieces that should not be there, clean it and re-lube it.

EDIT: Oh crap, I read the "P.S." Part, forget "1)" part.

no check the HPR first, if its not getting enough pressure the marker is starving for air=HPR usually

I agree, sounds like the LPR.

Also check to make sure the ASA port is screwed tightly into the body. Mine was too lose one time and the gauge read 285 but no air was reaching the gun. A quick turn of the allen key fixed that puppy right up.

Then you made no sense, seeing as to his pressure on his gauge was reading fine.

ICD Nubs these days :rolleyes:

(lol, jp gomster)

I agree, check your LPR. Not that you blew anything, just go through the process. The low pressure circuit is what cocks the bolt.

(lol, jp gomster) Re-read my post, I edited after I saw that his gauge was reading a good pressure. :P
