a bit more in depth for you.

Undo your grips and unplug the leads. Undo the two screws holding the grip frame to the marker body. There is a small screw holding the pin in place which you need to undo. Dont lose the screw. Pop the pin out and clean it up. Oil the pin lightly and put the trigger and pin back together, check its moving freely and then put everything back together again.

It could be the trigger pin, if it gets dirty it could cause the trigger to stick....
It's that, due to the design of the ego, you get grit, paint, water, everything in there. So it's sticking.
Take out the trigger pin and sand down the pin. Clean the pin holding holes out. Then replace. Leave the pin dry.

Trigger will be lovely again.
You will have to do this again.

Makes sure you set the triggers magnet isnt to strong also.
Enjoy.

p.s If you want to get around this problem and never have to clean it again. But a pm6 from www.paintballwarehouse.co.uk

i wont be buying a PM6 i love my ego, despite this tiny design flaw. What's cleaning the trigger pin every now and again in return for a totally ass raping marker?!

Does the 06 use stainless pins or do they have plated steal like 05's and eblades?

The one in my 05 ego and eblade both rusted causing a sticky trigger/missed pulls.
