I got my Pro/Carbine fully automatic, how do I get the paint to feed fast enough?

I recently got my Tippmann Pro/Carbine to fire at full-auto. However, the paint will not feed into the gun fast enough. It will shoot the first ball in the chamber and then shoot nothing but air. Therefore, I'm wasting a lot of CO2 without shooting any paint. How can this be fixed? Is there any device that significantly increases the firing rate?

Get an agitating hopper. The brand new HALO can feed 18bps or more. The Ricochet2k, RicochetAK and 12V Revolution are other alternatives. They will shoot 12 or 13 BPS max. You can also see if you can modify your marker to have a "Vertical Feed" or a "Power Feed" instead of the regular feed you have on it now.

i dont even think those will work . . . the gun is cycling too fast and there is not enough time for the balls to drop (rate of gravity) even if you did get it to feed, your gun would turn into a paint blender . . . i guess you could get a warp feed, but that would cost more than your gun . . . why would you make your gun f/a? i hope you can undo it because no field will let you use it.

How did you get it full auto? Did you use the dowel-in-trigger-sear technique, or did you buy one of those rip off kits?

wwhopper, i was gonna say the same thing. if u put a piece in the sear, which allows the bolt to go back and for, you are really puttin LOTS of strain on your gun esp the sear and bolt. its gonna blow out on u one day.
try to slow the cycle rate however with gumbands (rubberbands) around the cockin knob and like wrap it around something so that is slows the ROF.

hmm....well what you have to do is invent a loader that can feed about 25-30 bps. try a vacuum cleaner on reverse
