Ball Stuck on Bolt

Ok every once in a while a ball gets stuck on the bolt and breech. I'm not complaining because the ball didn't chop. But y doesnt it chop is my question? I have all stock parts so its nothing upgraded.

Another question is sometimes when i shoot real fast the gun comes uncocked. It doesnt make the little farting noise. Is this because im pulling the trigger faster than the gun can shoot? If so what can i do to make it faster. Don't say get a new gun.

It's not getting enough presure to push the bolt/striker back. Have you tried putting some paintball gun oil in the ASA?

Also inspect the sear for wear or damage.

do u use compressed air or Co2?
if ur usin hpa then it mite be that ur reg doesnt recharge and the bolt/hammer doesnt go back far enuf and doesnt catch on the sear
the most probable reason is that the front o-ring on the hammer is busted or just needs to be oiled.

From personal experience, the problem with it not chopping the ball, is the pressure may be slightly low, and the paint is crappy. When the rubbery type balls get over heated they become very hard to bust.

As for the uncocking, You need a stiffer spring in the bottom tube. This happens to my e-force all the time. When you replace the string, it still does it, but not as much.

ive oiled the gun so its not that
the sear is fine
i have an electric one check my sig
i use co2
the front o ring is not busted and is oiled before and after play
its good paint some kind of draxxus
i think the pressure problem is right because the balls start going shorter and shorter distances and it only happens when i begin to shoot fast

I think the reg has some bad orings or something else wrong with it. Dissassemble and inspect.

definitely sounds like a problem with the reg. its "shoot down." the air inside your gun doesnt "recharge" fast enough so each successive ball gets less and less air. you could try turning up your reg to a higher PSI, i think the PMI guns have huuuuuge operating pressure ranges. it would try replacing orings, and maybe just buy a new reg, the stock PMI ones suck.
