Ok well I got a System X Xtreme Expansion Chamber for my gun today, since I run it w/ co2. I figured that it would be fine, so I had it installed, and he aired up my TES and it aired up, but he didnt fire it.

Well, I get home, air it up and get ready to blast some paint, but it only shoots once and doesn't recock. There are two allen key fittings which I turned either way (both of them) to no avail. What is the problem?

I have tried different springs, all types, tensions, everything! What could I have done?

a/s your co2. if u use co2 youll have loads of problems in the long run. The only things i could think of would be tht either your pressure is too high/low, your macroline is hooked up wrong (if u use it.) Or your valve stem isnt letting enough air into the gun for recocking.

if you took your reg off your TES the gun would now be getting around 800psi strait from your co2 tank. The gun is designed to run at around 350-400 psi. having the pressure up this hi will overpresureize your valve, making it so that your gun wont cycle properly....and if you DO get it cycling by putting a heavier spring in, its unlikely that youll have safe velocitys. This happend when we put a turbo valve and exp chamber on a friends gun.
If you want to keep your expansion chamber you will need to get a horizontal reg. Id suggest scraping the exp chamber for a palmers reg, but thats up 2 you.

Or if you want to keep the exp chamber, you could get a palmers female stabalizer.
