Hey alright someone else on the forum with a Quest. Welcome to PBF!!!!

Your problem is that one of the O-rings on your bolt is worn, and your gun probbly needs a fresh set of lube. When was the last time you lubed it? because the bolt needs a fresh set of greese about every 2000 shots.

Simply take off the O-rings on the bolt and put new ones on (If you bought it new, you should have gotten a set of O-rings with it. If you bought it used, then your local shops will probbly have to O-rings or you can search the interent for some.)

If you take good care of a gun O-rings will last a decent amount of time. Just wait until they are worn then replace.

They last awhile depending on how much you play, if your not a pro and play rec/minor tourny's they'll last about a season (this is also assuming you lube every 2000 shots).

If you want to avoid a break down due to O-rings, change them at the end or start of every season. If you have a big tourny at the end then change them before it.

Goldmember bolt. APE board(If you can still get them) or a predator board. DW fibru barrel with freak inserts.

I've heard mixed things about the toruques... Look at the new Jrny Hopper or a Vlocity.

I'm one of the ones that HATE them. All but gave it away after 3 weeks because of it's many, varied weaknesses.

What exactly are the weaknesses? My teammate uses one and it has yet to let him down.

Constant jamming, holds like NO paintballs so that it seemed like I was ALWAYS reaching for a pod. Since I use the Dye lock lid pods, I have to wait until the Torque was EMPTY before I could fill it or I'd spill quite a bit since it held so little. That's assuming you managed to hit the opening of course. Now they've come out with the "loudmouth" that would address the capacity and small opening issues, so if you get a loudmouth torque, might not be so bad, but the standard torque was utter trash.

Ahh. I know my teammate got his the day they came out and it has served him pretty well. He has always had a problem with getting his loads in his hopper(Not the hoppers fault, he has missed quite a few reloads) so I haven't heard him complain about that. He did say they eat batteries though.

My vlocity Jr eats batteries, but I'll put up with it cause it dosn't break like a Halo. Another problem with the Quests and Vlocity's is that the quest feedneck is raither large and so I've put some duct tape around the vlocity feedneck to make sure it's really secure.

For that reason I've been debating a new loader (granted I can get some money lol) I can't wait for the Jrny to be released and some people try it. I'm really thinking it's going to be my next loader for my quest right now.

Yeah, I really wanna try out a JRNY also. But losing my enthusiasm though after waiting now for what, 9 months for it to be released, and it's 4 months late and counting? I love my Halo. I've got the clutch kit and a V35, very fast, very dependable. I used to use my Pulse all the time, but stoppped out of fear of the shells getting broken and it becoming worthless (as if it's not worthless not being used). The Vlocity I don't use due to the battery issue. It's even worse than the Jr. in my experience. Since cutting the neck on the Eye Force, that's been my primary loader recently though...ugly, but holds more than the Halo or Pulse, and still EASILY keeps up with 15 bps streams on those rare occasions I manage to hit 15.

I know, NXe is such a tease!!! lol.

Yea, also the Vlocity's are lighter than the Halo's or Pulses... I've seen Halo's be hit or miss, and when they miss they really suck. I had one that was horrible.

I don't like it, seen it spin on guns a few times like the Eggs are want to do. I'd get a ReloaderB2 and put the clutch kit in i
