^^^^ nice one, I get frustrated too, but I've been known to throw the thing I'm trying to fix at a wall, which is obviously detrimental to my effors

If you're feeling really brave one day, take the trigger frame apart. They're ALWAYS fun...

If you aren't sure how the parts will go together before you take it to pieces, use a digi camera to take photo's of the process in stages.

Anyway, the simple way....at the back of the marker you will find a pin that you can take out that holds the main spring and lots of other bits......DON'T TAKE THIS OUT YET!!!!

Undo the two Allen bolts that hold the trigger frame on to the main body, remove the Allen bolt that holds the feed pipe to the front block and slide it out and remove the valve rod and cup seal. This will allow you to handle the body easier.

Hold the back of the gun against you stomach, and pull the pin at the back out. Remove the back velocity adjuster, and remove the spring guide and main spring. Turn the gun body upside down holding the end with one hand and tap it until the bolt and hammer fall free.

If you really want to take the valve body out you will need a hammer and dowel punch, and will need to note the direction it came out, or you will never get it to work again until you do. I really suggest that you don't bother with the valve as the seals will as good as last for ever and not need replacing.

Assembly is the reversal of disassembly.

Good tips

Don't over oil If you are using CO2 it will freeze the moving seals and ruin them
A smear of paintball oil on all seal edges is enough

A drop or two of oil in the ASA hole (Part that the CO2/AIR) screws into, will lubricate the gun for the day

Feel free to PM me if you need more help...

Enjoy...Nobby

HI

it wont let me pm you mate so i will have to ask on here,when i look in the asa i can see a little hole and a pin do i drop a bit of oil in the hole or on the pin. sorry for the noob question but i have just started and it is my first gat.
when i just wanted to get the 2 bolts out the back i pulled the pin out and they popped out but they were already oiled and i put abit more oil on. would it be a gd idea to take them bolts back out again and dry them with a cloth and just re oil them not using to much.

cheers for the help

The little hole in the back of the ASA is the right place to put a few drops of oil.

As long as the parts aren't dripping with oil they should be OK but if you have used oils that you may have lying around your house, please read the paragraph bellow and wipe them down if you have.

Make sure the oil that you use is not your normal 3 in 1 oil or things like WD40 These oils, apart from the fact that they will damage seals (Cracking or swelling) the high pressure of the air supply working it could ignite the oil like a diesel engine burns fuel due to these oils being petroleum based.

This may be the reason that this happened to a player recently http://www.sapaintball.info/index.php?link=http://www.sapaintball.info/sapb/dynamic/index.php?id=757

You can get marker oils off of the Internet from paintball shops on-line or ebay for no more than a £5 delivered which will last ages.

Personally, I would just to be on the safe side. I'd hate to think that any advise I gave would cause injury, so to be on the safe side get a bit of the propper stuff...Nobby

what do you mean i do have proper marker oil and that is what i oiled them with, not wd 40 or anything. it shouldnt cause injury but i will dry them and then re lube.

Excuse me "DOH!!" as I miss read the the quote that you have bought some oil from Fat Bobs. Yes you have the right oil so all is fine..

I have a Matrix DM3 that rips paint like a good un, and have a Spyder victor II that I use way more than the other, due to it rugged simplicty. I only take it to pieces every two or three times out unless it has jammed.

It has an after market barrel, electro trigger fitted, Reloader II hopper and never chops balls ver 12 balls per second and is quite accurate.

Best cheap marker owned...
