the gun leaks air threw the barrel. it seems like it is coming right out of the bolt. and i don't know what is wrong with it and why it is leaking. i checked all the seals and they seem good. and everything seems in tack so i don't know what else to check. i also already checked the valve cup seal. if you can give me any sugestions or places that i can check to find out what is wrong with it i'd appreciate it.

thanks

I had the same problem with an EXT pro. SOunds like you checked what you should've ... cup seal, valve o-rings yada yada. Try this, cuz this is what works for me. Cock the gun before you stick your tank in, then once its in, fire the gun once or twice. Thats what i did and the leakage stops. Kinda crazy, and I'll probably be having my gun checked in a bit, but it does the trick for now.

Good thing i have a Tippmann. I have yet to have a problem with it. Everyone else except for one guy has had problems with their PMI stuff.

Lucky Me... i have been playing with people that have malfunctioning guns.. can about imagine how fun that is.
