Tippman Hopper Feeding Procedure

I just recently bought a second Tippman A-5, because I thought my first one was defective, but now I realize I may not be using it correctly, because I am facing the same issue over again.

The tippman only appears to fire one round, before I have to manually feed the hopper with the push pin, AND cock it again. Surely I am doing something wrong, as it says right on the box "Semi-automatic".

What is the normal procedure for getting the A-5 to shoot multiple rounds without having to manually feed the cyclone hopper AND recock it?

Also make sure you banjo fittings are all ok. The A-5 should feed fine right out of the box. Did you take it apart before you used it? Also make sure you have plenty of co2.

i had same problem, are you using co2 or compressed air. my problem was not enough air was getting to the gun. this was cause i was using a remote line, and i turned the knob all the way down, causing it to cut off some air to the gun. maybe your not getting enough air.
