Another Shocker Problem! Help

[kjm3388]

Ok now that I fixed my air leaking problem in my shocker the ball doesnt shoot. The ball reaches the breach and the bolt strikes the ball with little force. The ball gets stuck in the barrel if I have the barrel on and just drops out of the gun without a barrel. I have tried multiple types of paint. The regulator is set to 150 and then I upped it to about 170. PLEASE HELP!!! NE HELP WOULD B GREAT!!!!!!!!!! :pissed: :pissed: :pissed: :pissed:

Try and bring the regulator up to 200PSI and see what kind of fps you get if any. Also check to see if the bolt is assembled correctly, there may be a problem there. Pull out the poppet and firing piston and see if anything is out of the ordinary. Try that and if it doesnt work then I think its time to give smart parts a call.

Sounds like you forgot to put the firing rod back in.

[kjm3388]

ok what exactly is the firing rod? Is it in the same chamber as the bolt? I never have taken it apart......just until i found out it was not shooting. If i put it 2 200psi wount that damage it?

Go the the cleaning instructions and make sure everything is there, greased and done correctly.

[WERM]

the 3-way noid isnt firing. Or the timming is set incorrectly so that the 3-way isnt open long enough to let out a burst to fire.

[kjm3388]

so......i should basically do all these things u guys said or is there 1 specific thing i should try first so i dont gotta do all tese things

[DasBaldDog]

Start with what Werm says.


It could also be your battery. One of my shocker's noids doesn't fire if the battey is starting to run low.

[kjm3388]

i had to send it back to smart parts. They said the bolt deformed or something. They said something like it expanded so just send it back

[WERM]

Another one of smart parts swelling delrin bolts. This is why they dont make them anymore.

[kjm3388]

huh? this happened to you before? So now they make a new bolt for the shocker?

[WERM]

SP briefly made delrin bolts for their guns, but stopped when they had many complaints of swelling. Now they use the original aluminum bolt.

Go with a Werm delrin bolt, I have one and it works flawlessly, no swelling or anything. It's prolly the best 30$ that I spent for my internals.

ya i had the same thing happen to me the whole swelling ordeal but they sent me a new one. but what happened now is really strange and i think i'm just going to send the whole gun to smart parts. see when the trigger is pulled everything moves the right way with the right time the air assist works regular but the bolt has no power at all. i greased everything in the entire gun including the noids and the regulator i tried the timing but that was not it so i put it back and now i've ran out of options so i'm sending her in and waiting for the results wish me luck
