no pressure gettin through my piranha
hey guys. ive got a little problem. i got my semi new semi auto piranha a few months ago. It has been used at a field only once and this weekend when i was at my friend's party at a paintball field, it didnt work. There was no air gettin through from the tank to the gun. I checked o rings, air fullness, tightness of tank in gun, and other things i thought might stop the gun from working. I know there was no pressure getting through because the psi gauge on the side of the gun was on 0. Do you guys have any ideas on what the problem could be? Any info's helpful

umm, I'm not really sure. Make sure your reg isnt set to zero, other than that I don't know

I have seen pin valves go bad on tanks before. check the tank, make sure it works on another marker. Also does it have an on/off selector? Minion908 has a good point too.
If you used it before and just put it away then it's probably something with the tank.

first unscrew the reg or gas through and screw the tank in vtl if the gauge says 0 then its the tank. if it does work then its something with the reg or gasthru

first, DONT UNSCREW THE REG AND PUT THE CO2ON!!! second, CO2s dont have gauges
but its prolly a tank problem, or ASA. double check your ASA for a little pin that suppose to push the pin on the CO2, check that, maybe it broke off.

i hope that wasnt from what i said. cause i ment screw it in vertical, which is the place were the reg screwed off from. its an easy way to see if its the gun its self or somewhere in the reg or asa
