**Gangsta_Redneck** · June 6th, 02:37 AM

how much is this gun worth helppp

***nexizzle*** · June 6th, 07:59 AM

i would bc it cant be that expensive to fix and then you could either use it or sell it and get two ions

**PaiNtBaLLeR_200** · June 6th, 08:36 AM

do it. a barb leak is easy..it either requires loctite(cheaper than 5 bucks), or a new barb(2 or 3 bucks). do it.

**Gangsta_Redneck** · June 6th, 09:02 AM

what about some teflon tap and what is the barb

**mynameisgeorgel** · June 6th, 10:22 AM

Im not sure what a barb is, but the Timmy is a great gun, a buddy of mine has one and it rips.

**Gangsta_Redneck** · June 6th, 11:30 AM

well this is wat he says
"it has a leak on the soldniod where the barb comes to it."

ok timmy people solve this one

**mynameisgeorgel** · June 6th, 11:35 AM

if you post it in the timmy forum, you might get better answers

**PaiNtBaLLeR_200** · June 6th, 11:41 AM

most likely needs to be loctited. bob says not to use teflon on his gun.

also..the leak could be the noid..and it may just need cleaning.

June 6th, 11:43 AM

I'd do it for sure. It probably only needs 5-10 minutes of work on it and maybe 5 dollars. That'd be a good trade.

***PBallNoobinator*** · June 6th, 11:57 AM

yeah id do it, its like everyone else says its an easy fix you could do it cheaply and i use to have a timmy they are really nice guns.

**Sh00t em Up** · June 6th, 11:59 AM

Do it, no questions asked.

**PaiNtBaLLeR_200** · June 6th, 12:02 PM

also, due to the fact your in north carolina..i could tell you a few places you could take it to that have certified timmy techs.

**Gangsta_Redneck** · June 6th, 12:34 PM

oo 4real pm me
i kno if i took it to black river paintball they may no how to fix it or freedom

**p8ntballweird** · June 6th, 01:08 PM

hmm not a big fan of buying broken guns, if its leaking arund the solenoid he may have blown it. Timmy looks allright. If you're willing to take teh chance on its "problem" go for it.

**Gangsta_Redneck** · June 6th, 01:17 PM

how much would it cost to get it fixed if ts blown??

**p8ntballweird** · June 6th, 01:24 PM

you're looking at aronud 40 dollars or so for a new one.
+ if you can't install it, maintence fees.
just don't get yourself screwed, make sure ehe gives you xactness to the problems. When ig ot my bko it was leaking bad, and the guy said to just get a new bolt. Got the bolt and still had to send it in to vaporworks for a new noid, and it still isn't back yet.

***RastaPasta*** · June 6th, 01:50 PM

for a new solenoid??? i thought solenoid's ran for like $120 a piece. i dont know about it. ask him to get it fixed first and then trade. its just a hassle (not too mention very frustrating) to have to drive all around asking who can fix it and for how much.

**mLuH** · June 6th, 06:30 PM

^well he's probably trading it for a lesser valued gun because its broken and if he wanted to fix it it would probably be fixed. idk...even if u have to buy a new solenoid i think its worth it

prostock05 · June 6th, 06:32 PM

I'd say keep the ion......they you have complete assurance that your not gonna get screwed and lose a gun that you spent $285 on
