I had my pmr for a while now and I was just servicing it before I start to play and I noticed a small air leak coming from the front of the marker. There is air coming through the front if the bolt through the feedneck and barrel. Does anyone know how to fix it??

Thanks Ben221

try a new battier i know it sounds silly but i had a pritty much the same thing happen to my pmr 10 and its because where the battier is so low the gun can not work properly so it just leaks if that does not work take your bolt out and check all orings

I didn't work, I can still hear air coming from the front of the bolt. There isn't any wear on the o rings though. Thanks for the help anyway Ben! Much appreciated!

Have you got the manual? If you have look in the trouble shooting guide at the back. Under air leaks. It will tell you exactly which orings to change. But going off memory. It will be the rear can inner oring and the one on the bolt. They might look ok. But change them or you could try re lubing first if you don't have new ones.

Yeah I changed the damaged o rings and re lubed, if I can't fix it before I start playing then I might sent it to justpaintball.com for a service nod repairs, I don't want to mess around with the internals and damage them even more.

One of the guys from dye told me to try changing the blue o ring, all of my o rings are black,". Does he mean the one that is closest to the front of the bolt?

According to manual. The orings you need to change are the one inside front of can and the one inside front of manifold. If that doesn't work change the outer orings of the can. If you haven't got manual I would advise downloading it.
