ok this was my first gun, i bought it about 4 years ago and it worked great, but then move on andbought a semi and havent looed back... until now. i went to use it the other day and it leaKs! it was fine when i last used it 4 years ago... i took it apart and i dont no what it could be... it leaks from around the barrel. there isnt much inside the gun so i dont no what it is. i jus dont feel like bringing it to cousins... can anyone help me out here? also does anyone know if there is a bottom line kit for this thing? i put one on today but i had to mount the asa to the side of the stupid grip becauseyou cant put it on the bottom... if you have one you no what i mean. i put a4 stage tippmann exchamber on where the tank goes, and ran the hose to the asa on the side ofmy grip... its only temporary till i can figure out a way to make a custom drop forward. any help?

sounds to me like a bad seal...either lube all of your internals or call ACI and ask them whats up...

If it is leaking around the barrel is probably more than likely a damaged cup seal. Check that out.

Might be just a matter of relubing o-rings in the valve assembly. Oiling staright threw the ASA doesn't always work, some of them are hard to get, so I'd disassemble the whole valve assembly and oil whatever orings you spot.

check the valve area. all i did was take it apart and tighetened all the area's which are (screwable). then just tighten the brass part really as hard as you can. just like that. :)
