. now at the end of today it started to lick out the barrel. ever time it was uncocked it started to lick air. but when it was pump no lick. I guessed it was because I was low on air. but now I home and I put a full tank on it and it still lick like that.

adjust your reg, go up a bit.
My mini'd prototype does it every time I start her up.
You should check out the info in the CCM area, TF knows how to lay the info out easily for us, helps you get started.

make sure it's cocked first.the air cannot overcome the hammer spring when you first turn the air on.

Or a small piece of something is stuck between the valve body and valve stem.usually a piece of teflon tape if you used tape.

forgot to mention the pre air-up cocking. It surprizes me that Mar did not mention that a pre cock was needed, and maybe a post cock as well...lol
I put a guage on mine to make it easier for me to stay where it needs to be. I might knock the dust off that beauty and gog a few newbs coming over with her today!
Once you get accustomed to your S6 Red Star, you will love it even more. I use several pumps but none have the smoothness that my CCM have.

i believe it is the reg because before my 13ci tank would last and last. I was filling up after every 2 games. O and is it good to get a CP reg and i like to throw a guage on that reg as well.

I also like to know should the reg be a High pressure or Low pressure .
