two trigger pulls for the bolt to fire....?

it takes two trigger pulls for my bolt to fire (not always but after firing a lot this will happen) and i really dont know what i should do...i have already asked this question but i dont think i got good help. please someone tell me why this is happening. its only happening when there is CO2 in and someone told me it might be the spring. i hear the clicking sound in my e trigger (got the old imagine) but the bolt only moves a bit, then on the second click it fires.

whats the problem!??!

this is really frustrating

It MIGHT be that theres something wrong with your sear. That's just a guess and it could be way off but it only might catch the sear like everyother time.


Edit: Crazycupcake beat me to it..

Replace your battery.

Check your microswitch.

Tighten your grip frame. If it is too loose the sear might not trip the bolt assembly 100% of the time.

has there been a problem with stock spyder imagine springs?

also, although a little off topic, what new barrel do you guys think i should get, and what is the average size paintball that is used so i dont get a barrel the wrong size and have **** accuracy

thanks all for ure time and putting up with a noob like me ;-)

the little thing that the trigger hits. Tiny little nib, purple/redish in color.
