Damn, that stab alone will cost you about that new once you factor in shipping, nice snag.

You may well have some pretty gunked up o-rings on the bolt. Palmers uses fairly big, fairly sticky o-rings. I'll bet that a new set and a little oil will go a long way toward fixing your issues.

ok thanks fellaz I am gonna mess with it and get back to you. Yea I got it off Craigslist in a small town about 20 mins from my house. It was kind of out in the boonies,haha...

damn good snag, i'd love to have that stab...i agree with rob sr, good chance of swollen o-rings, i say get a rebuild kit and strip her down! nothing gets you familiar with a marker like complete disassembly/reassembly...

Agreed - it's not that hard to disassemble a PPS product, and once you've done it, you'll be that much more confident in it's performance.

Which means a set of delrin flat-rings from PPS would be just what he'd want.

Dont take apart the valve if it isnt leaking from the valve. If you take apart the valve, there is a 100 percent chance that it will need some O rings because those seals will never seal again.

Attempt to fix it with as little disassembly as possible. Try to remove the bolt O rings and cycle the gun, if it works with them removed, buy some bolt O rings or flat delrin rings. Problem solved.

so I took apart some of the gun and look over things. Looking at the pic above, mine seems to be missing the wahsers from the reg and whats the deal with plastic orings on the bolt? are they supposed to be on there?

ok I have it shooting more than it was. I can get it to shoot everytime when I assist the bolt while fireing, what would cuase that? is that the orings?

thanks fellaz

When you say plastic o rings... Are they black and have a cut in them and flat on the top? If so, those would be the delrin flat rings.
