well i have no idea how it fell out, thats odd, mayve you stripped out the threads when you screwed it in, (how hard did you tighten it)

a regular parts kit or matince kit for the gun would not include such a screw, you will have to order if directly from tippmann or go through your local paintball store, i go to a small place espically for paintball(lonewolf) not a dicks or dunahams- i dont think they would order it for you

it will probably cost you a few bucks, my friend purchased 3 screws he had lost and is was somethin like 5 bucks, im not sure about shipping charges


"with no pieces left over and the velocity screw in. Wherever my screw went, I dunno but I lost it some how it just fell out"

^do you mean it was their when you put it back togother, but later you looked and it was gone

or was it gone after you put it back togother(clarify this)

i assume by "reader" you mean a chronograph

and yes i could see it being as low as 195pfs, when gun is shot the pressure build up is what pushes the ball through and out the barrel, with a hole in the side of your gun(no screw) alot of that pressure is lost, the c02 just shoots out of the hole and is not acting on the ball.

but as long as you get a new screw ordered you should be fine(assuming you didnt strip out the threads on the vavle in the gun-if so the screw would just fall out of the gun again)
