PMI Piranha R6 Leak
There is a Leak at my ASA Slug
The CO2 is shooting rapidly out of the bottom of it (Where it meets the Gun)
This has happend before, but All I did was oil my Gun and Change the O-Ring, then it was fine
But this time I did the same thing, but it Just Kept Spurting CO2
Has Anyone every had this problem with the R6 or another gun?
or Does anyone know how I could go about Fixing this problem?

thats not an asa dude... thats called a LPC, or low pressure chamber. its an easy fix. just wrap abit of teflon tape around the threads. not alittle teflon though, put enough. it should be alittle hard to screw back in but when you do... problem solved.

thats not a place you would usually use teflon tape. im sure its worth a try. although, whatever is causing the problem will still be there. take the oring off and inspect it very carefully. look into the gun and make sure that the threads arent screwed up. also, that dont look like the correct o ring for that part (mines black, and that one on yours looks like a urethane tank o ring, but then again, your gun is newer than mine), so id advise you to look into your manual and find out.

ARRG
Yipee, where my ASA Hose connects to the Gun, the Threads are all boogered up, and at the end of the threads there is a Chip, Letting all the CO2 that it wants Out
It Threads I am talking about are on the Body of the Gun
Does anyone know where I can buy a Body For a Piranha?
I found one on eBay, but it is For a SRT, it seems like it would work for my gun but there is only one thing, It has a Gas Through grip, but it doesent have all the Parts, it is just a Body kit, It doesent have a Vertical feed for the Hopper either, I was wondering if you think it would work? with my R6 parts (Basically I need to know if i can not use the Gas Through Grip, and just hook my Hose right into the Body of the Gun

It is a Bad habit of Pressing the Shift button and capitalizing things alot, I did it on this one paper for school, that damn teacher was a dick and he gave me and 80 because I did it alot, He said if I didnt capitalize like that I wouldve gotten a 100, Hes a dumbass
Anyway, I am thinking of buying a Tippman anyway...Maybe if I get a new gun I can sell it in mint condition....and get 80 bucks for it, then buy a Tippmann 98c....HeH HeH HeH, I love cheating the system
