powder co2 coming out by bolt

mayor · 03-25-2008, 03:13 AM

Hey, I just aired up my brothers 98 custom becuase I am selling it. I shot it a few times, and then there was a lot of co2 coming out of the slot on the left (where you pull the bolt back) Does anyone know to fix this?

It is not a problem. Were you shooting down when it happened? All it is is liquid CO2 entering the valve and causing a big condensation cloud in front of your bolt.

nope, at first it was, but I remebered you shouldn't do that unless its anti-siphoned. I just dont want to ship out a gun that may cause the buyer future problems

No, that is pretty much normal for Tippmanns. Do not worry about it, nothing is wrong.
