  • I painted my A5 with spray paint but I was careful to tape over all moving parts. It stopped working a few days later... It shoots two or three balls out then stops firing. Did the paint damage it?

  • @mrMCBEASTYNUGGETS - Unless you got paint inside the cylone, I doubt it. Chances are that it's just a coincidence on the timing. Follow this video, and check your valve and power tube for damage.

  • i have a problem. my cyclone dosent feed the paintball in the chamber. when i shoot it the cyclone dosnt move. whats the problem?? u seem like u no what ur talkin about.

  • There are a variety of things it can be. Check your ratchet (see my cyclone maintenance vid). After that, check to make sure you are shooting high enough pressure, then probably check your power tube for cracks, etc.

  • dude have u ever replaced ur rachet?

  • I have, and wound up replacing it with the JCS Jet Click mod.

  • Okay my problem is that my cyclone thingy wont feed into my gun. instead, every time my gun stops firing paintballs I have to press the manual feeder for it to start shooting paintballs agian.this gets really irritating especially when im in a hot situation during a paintball game.Is it because i dont use c02 and compressed air instead?or is t just broken?

  • is it actually necessary to provide maintenence for your cyclone feed system? ive had my a5 for over 2 years and never have i dont any kind of maintenence on any part of it. and it works flawlessly

  • i got an a5 upgrade kit where all the parts were together already i put it on my gun but when i shoot the cyclone doesnt spin can someone tell me why>?? plz

  • where can i buy that black thing that guides the sping in the piston? i think its caled a cylinder plug

  • Put an X7 low profile hopper...

  • what is that screw above the cyclone feed ajustmant screw???? i want to know this and what it does

  • THANK U SO MUCH!! my cyclone waznt working right & now its fixd!!
