Ok, so I bought a splatmaster from someone on the site here, and its leaking. It has a screw on cap for the co2 cartridges, and when i screw it in, i can hear it air up, but there is a constant leak. the leak is sometimes worse than others, and i cant get many shots out of a 12gram because of this. it has a crack in the back (where the 2 sides of the gun come together) where some air comes out, but mostly its inside the co2 holder because when i unscrew it, white co2 comes out in clumps.

any help would be great

looks like the 12 gram face seal is missing/toast, any splatty guru's out there know of a good substitute? would a sheridan fit, or maybe a phantom?

[wooster241]

yeah i dont know squat about splatmasters so help is needed! haha

[wooster241]

uhh
so i took off the side, and a small screw popped out, then another screw and a white ball...

Should be two small springs and a white ball.
One is the trigger spring and fits under the trigger, the other spring holds the ball under the barrel as a ball detent.
The picture looks like it's missing the peircing seal, which would leak.

So thats what that other spring was for! I couldn't understand why they stuck a extra spring between the rail, and barrel. Also explains why I don't have a detent (Didn't think it came with one!).


Good to know. As far as the face seal, some didn't have them (Mine doesn't). It uses the friction to make a seal. With mine, I have to do about a 1/4, to a half turn past the puncture for it to seal right.

Use a phantom pierce pin seal. Super glue it in place. Call CCI, Mike(?) will prolly send you a free one.
