I have an A-5 with Flatline and R/T. The guy I know put some sort of pin in it so that the more pressure u put on the trigger the faster the gun will shoot. The gun often uncocks and I was wondering if this could just be because it shoots too fast? Thanx let me know. I plan on selling r/t to buy an e-grip.

What is your air source? What temp are you playing in?
I had the same problem. The next time it uncocks, dont recock it and take off your barrel and look in the breach. I'm curious whether there will be a ball jammed half way in the breach by the bolt.
Either way, you may be experiencing shootdown from a faulty or inadequate air source. The cyclone needs blowback pressure to operate correctly and your gun wont recock if there isnt enough blowback pressure. The RT only makes things worse by making you shoot fast and stealing some of the blowback pressure.
Once you do that and tell me your airsource, we might be able to figure this out.

I'm with gillie on this one, it's your air source plain and simple.

Make sure it is a crossfire air tank. Otherwise, it may not have a good enough recharge rate.

Probably. I wouldnt want to cut corners buying a cheap HPA tank. Go to the air systems forum and search and check the reviews(for what they are worth) and maybe ask in the air systems forum if the HPA tank you are getting is good.
