then maybe your sear isnt activating the bolt and just turns to full auto is it full auto when you depress the trigger or just goes full auto check your lines it may be too much co2 fluid in the marker. Im not too sure on mechs and co2 unless it has a pump handle

Meh, I fire a few shots, at like 1bps then suddenly the gun goes into rapid for a few secs then stops and I continue to fire slowly (Just to test). Then this repeats...

Right! I think i've solved the chopping problem... My barrel's diameter isn't big enough... God know how though, im using standard caliber paintballs.

Still having probs with co2 though :/

Could be a plethora of issues.
Is it in semi mode and not some ramp~"ish" mode?
Ball quality..I looked at the spec and even rated @ 8 bps a graviy fed hopper will not suffice.
Are the eyes on or off?
Basicaly if the eyes are on and there are no issues the marker will fire if a ball is present.
If the eyes are off the marker will fire regardless,combine this with a wet ball which drags due to the friction and the marker will fire even if the balls only half feed into the hopper=soup...;)
Read the manual,undertsand the settings,clean the marker,change the battery and try it.
TBH if it fires ok slowly then as said the issue will prolly be the feed rate of the hopper.
Go to the classifieds and get an egg..£20 and useable "when" you upgrade..if your playing seriously you won't have that marker long,it compares to site guns but still good VFM if you sort it....:D

Thanks, my marker is mechanical... It is semi auto, nothing else. I've totally cleaned every single part of the marker. I'm thinking about just sending it back and getting something different.

Thanks for your help :)

With no eyes and a marker that shoot up to 9bps you really need a motorised hopper. Relying on gravity is a bad idea, as without eyes the marker will attempt to shoot half fed balls in the breech. Something like a Revvy or Egg should do - or better force feed loaders if you have the budget. Try not to go too big on barrel or you'll lose efficiency and risk roll outs - leading to further chopping.

Had a look at JT website - nice looking MIL/Sim but details are a bit vague

Can't work out if it has a detent system as that may need looking at?
