: i need help with my gun.ok the set-up is a 110/3000 adjustable screw in on a gen 3 bushy.when i screw in my tank ill get like 10-12 good shots then is just dies so when i pull the trigger the bolt just wiggles.i have the tank set at about 300-400 psi.also when gassed up the gun leaks from the inside.all help would be deeply appreciated

:: First, you should set your tank output pressure to 200 psi or so above your operating pressure into the gun (450 to 500 psi if your valve and LPR are stock).

Second, the leaking from inside indicates a possible solenoid leak. Removing the gasket at the base of the solenoid and oiling it with paintball lube may solve the problem, or you might have a problem inside the solenoid. Check www.obdo.net for some tech guidance on the solenoid.

Third, disassemble and clean your low pressure reg (LPR); lube the o-rings with silicon gerase, reassemble and readjust. Do the same with your in-line reg as well. I do this every couple of months as regular maintenance just to maintain consistency and reliability. I like the Sonic LPR gauge from Mac Dev because it eliminates the guesswork in adjusting the LPR.
