I went to the post office today and picked up B2K 04 with pds silver to balck fade. I also got the Stiffi and silver CIP Uni mount. I was out all day so i diddnt have a chance to fit the macro and whatnot untill after dinner but when i got the unimount installed i aired it up and it was fine so i started shooting and if i shot at a high rof the bolt wouldent go back all the way and i diddnt shoot paint at a high rof, just air, it would also start to leak somewhere but if i stopped shooting for a few seconds and then shot 1 round the leaking would stop. It was fine if i shot slow or single shots. I realized i was low on hpa and i only had about 600 psi or so left. Is that the reson why it was doing what it did, If not can u tell me whats wrong?

I'm thinking your problems can be explained by the fact that the tank was almost empty. Since it was so low your gun was probly starving for air, so the bolt wasnt recocking at high rof. this also explains the leak because if the gun wasnt getting enough air then the pressure of the air holding the valve closed would not be very high, causing the valve to leak (this leak would come out of the barrel, for future reference). thats why the problems manifested at high rof and not low.

Welcome to the ICD family!

Like Lotus said, it was more than likely caused by low air. My BKO would do something similar when I was low on air. Did you happen to notice if the balls that did get shot weren't going as far?

i didnt shoot balls at first so i diddnt even try shooting it with paint, but today i went out and filled up my hpa slapped it on and when i shoot past 1bps it does the same thing kinda, so then i thought it might be the reg so i made it like 300 psi, and every time I shoot the next time i shoot the lil arrow on the gauge goes down a little farther so ill shoot like 5 times and the guage will go back down to zero and will leak a lil but then when i stop shooting itl go back up to 300, What is going on?I aldo made messed with the reg and made it up to 450 and it still did it and then wehn i passed a certain pressure ithink it was like 550 or so it would shoot but no air would come out. I have no clue whats wrong with my gun please help. And thanx Tipp and lotus.

Uhh, yeah, don't do that.

Set the reg to 225-250psi, then turn the LPR clockwise until you hear a leak, then turn it back a quarter-turn. Come back and tell us what happens after that.

Hmm, alright. I'm sorry, but I can't help you past here. You'll need a B2K guru for this part.

this also could be why

THis is a lesson for every player, and every marker, right after you take it out of the box, and out of ure case before and after play, tighten the screws!, #1 cause of leaks are a simple loose screw, its true for spyders and angels,

alrighty your gun is still starving for air even when the tank is full (I doubt VERY much that the problem is the inline, so you can set it back at 250psi or so where it is supposed to be :tup:). Make sure your unimount is screwed in enough so that the air is flowing all the way. Also make sure the Unimount isn't turned in ALL the way, as this can jam the tank pin and obstruct airflow.

my friend had the same problems and ended up blowing his solenoid. so your best off just getting a new reg. the reg pooped out and the gauge just kept going up 250, 350, 450. and when we where shooting it it had the same problem as you we could shoot it but when it reached 250 we had to shoot to keep the pressure down.

new reg= fixed gun

Meh, all that needed to be done was clean the reg. I went over to his house earlier today and helped him clean it and stuff and it worked fine after that.

I <3 Stiffi.

i lubed and cleaned it and its still doin the same thing. I shot bout 20 balls or so and it was fine and then it started doing the same thing. Did i not lube it enuf?
And im def getting a new reg ASAP(CP), but it turns out im poor. I should have waited to get the stiffi and gotten a reg and vapor bolt first.
