Ok, im gonna do some guessing work now...

First of all, make sure your bottle has some gas in, try getting it filled.

Now the guessing starts...If you have a tippmann 98, clean off all the oil, check for anything thats not supposed to be there, then re apply a thin layer of oil to it. If that doesn't help, bring the back cap out to the second line and test it, if its that have you have changed the main spring? If that works take out the spring and cut off 1-2 coils, then try again. Repeat until it works. You may also want to check the O rings throughout the gun and replace if necessary, this will be another major cause.

Now, if you have an inferno, try taking out the bolt, cleaning it and the breech ect and check the o-rings and re apply the oil, this goes for spyders too.

I would also watch your ball detent. When it wears down, a ball might roll into your barrel. And when you shoot, the ball that the gun will shoot will hit the ball in the barrel. And it's a mess.

marker problems...

OK all you x-perts..here's one for you..(I have sussed out what was wrong but see if you can tell me...
Inferno T3, running on C02 gas with anti syphon. Gun was OK the last time i used it the previous week. Next week i went to use it and the paint was only travelling about 3 metres. Conditions warmish British spring day, bottle not too hot or cold, seemed to have enough gas....so what was wrong?
