I stripped the screw hole for the beavertail, I tried teflon tape but it did not work. I need to have the hole re threaded. Is this something that I can have a machine shop do or do I need to send the gun to a paintball specialist?

Has this happened to any one and what did you do to rectify the problem?

Any idea what it will cost to fix?

You cant weld aluminum right ?

Thanks for your input...

Try docs machines for the re-tap, they do nice work.

try tarantula mfg. thats where my autocockers body is right now getting the gripframe screw and feed tube fixed, but if its just the beavertail i wouldnt worry about it... unless the field you play at is really strict about those.

a local hardware handy man should be able to tap a hole for you

Unless he plays in tourneys, in which case his gun would not be legal without a beavertail. The cocking rod can be pushed on for increased velocity during game play if a beavertail is not equipped.

really??? dang i need to try and play like that sometime, i thought it would cock and stop.

It causes the hammer to hit the valve with more force (the same thing that happens when you turn up the velocity using the springs) releasing a higher consistency of gas behind the ball, creating higher velocity.
