Shooting 3, 4, 5 balls at a time?

[blinkimgone04]

I just got my blue mini in yesterday from paintballwholesalers.com (Great store by the way! Took only 4 days shipped to me for my mini and it only cost $399.50! Free shipping!)

I have a problem with my gun... I took it out to shoot and I could shoot 1 ball at a time and it would shoot great..the gun is extremely quiet and accurate (with a 12'' stiffi).. however when i would get a higher ROF the gun would stop shooting as i was pulling the trigger then it would shoot 3 -5 balls out at a time and they would shoot maybe 10 feet... I haven't had a chance to take it to my paintball shop yet but was hoping someone on this forum could give me some feedback because everyone seems intelligent... I am thinking it has something to do with the regulator.... any response would be greatly appreciated..:confused:

is your tank screwed in all the way? It could be getting drop off if not and allowing some balls to be pushed into the barrel and not shot at all and then when it gets to recharge it shoots them all out. Are you sure that its not making any noise at all when you pull the trigger? What hopper are you using and what setting are you using? A vlosity over setting 6 has enough power to push past detents. Check your detents to make sure that they arnt sticking. Also read the thred that I made about how to break in your gun when you get it. Its labled read this befor you ask questions. Doing that wont hurt anything and might fix your problem.

You probably need to raise the pressure, what is it at now?

People should remember to post all of their settings, equipment and their loaders settings + the paint they are using.
This will help get a (good) answer

it is either your detent or hopper (most probable) or it could be dwell or air pressure or maybe you just need to clean the gun and try dryfiring and see how it works

i appreciate all of your responses! it was just that the tank was not screwed in tight enough!:pissed: i feel stupid it was just tougher than any other gun ive used to screw in and i was just scared of damaging it the first night i had it. shot it on ramping 15 bps and it is great! very quiet and accurate as hell like i said before with the stiffi! continue posting things about this gun guys and your thoughts of it!
