Well, I've been playing lately.
I have my gun dow to 300 psi...nothing wrong happened till now. I shoot my gun sometimes, and every once and a while it makes a hissing sound. I'm not sure fom where, not the line though. It only does this at certain times...anyone know what this is? Sorry I couldn't explain more.

any regs on there? if so check the entire system
check the o-rings
also if could be the tank also (I don't think so, but you never know)
do you know exactly where the hiss is from?
it could be also that you don't have the grip frame on there completely
but really I need to know where the leak is from first.

Yeah.....I have it double regulated. I checked everywhere. The tank and regs have all the o-rings on, and none are chewed up. I put teflon tape on all the line threads, so that's not leaking.
If I put my ear close to the body, I can hear a hissing sound, pretty loud too. It's inside the marker, nothing external. The hammer's o-ring is intact and not cut or anything, same with both valve O-rings. The bolt doesn't have any.
Frame is tight, s, I'm clueless. And weird par is that it only happens occasionaly, maybe 5 times a day, and I have to unscrewed and rescrew the the tank it to get it to stop.

maybe it is something with the tank. that's my only guess right now, because really I don't know a whole bunch on t3's.

I KNOW it's not the tank. I took it to this place in delaware, and they checked it out....eveything working perfectly.
Plus, I've used it before, and just started making this noise. It's really damn annoying, since it only does it 3 or so times a day. With my luck it's usually when there are two of us left, and still need to eliminate 4 more.
