Piranha EVO problem

Hey all, I'm a casual paintballer and I hadn't picked up my gun since I had been away at college. Now that I am home for the summer, I can't get the gun to work. Can anyone help me out? I have a special edition piranha evo with the Detonator regulator on it. I hook up a tank and and go to shoot the gun, but it never recocks and the paintballs aren't travelling very far at all. I check the regulator and it tells me I have plenty of pressure. I originally thought that my sear wasn't catching the bolt, but that doesn't explain the lack of velocity of the paintball. Any help?



(p.s. I apologize for my noobness)

lube it up! put a few drops in the ASA, attatch the tank and fire away.

you didn't store it int he cocked position, did you? If so you'll mostlikley need a new mainspring.
