    Pro lite shoot but wont recock

    Trying to fix a Tippmann Pro Lite

    The gun shoot but wont re-cock
    tested with CO2, with no paint in (dry fire)

    Anyone had this issue?
    could it be the pin limiting the valve movement?

    Did not dissassemble it yet and would like to know which parts I would need before I start

    Is the velocity adjuster in place? Try shooting paint, does it bloop or do you get some velocity?

    Does it go to full auto after each shot (no paint coming out)? Recocking can be a worn sear or the bolt being gacked up.

      No ot just shoot once and it does not even try to recock

      Not use to this floating valve design, was thinking it could come from there?
      Not many moving parts

      Alexndl I’m having the same issue with my pro carbine, what ended up being the problem with yours?

    take the oring off the bolt, sounds like you might have it sticking in the barrel/breach
    Are we there yet?

      Put a squeegee in the barrel and shoot. Did it recock? They like some back pressure. Also, if the velocity screw is all the was in, back it off a 1/2 turn and try again.

        Murdoc555 from what I remember, pro-lite and pro-carb need back pressure in the barrel to work. If you dry fire put a squeegee in the barrel like JOESPUD27 mentionned and it should work. As long as they are not leaking and the bolt/hammer move easily, it should work.

          Alexndl JOESPUD27 This did allow it to fire and recycle, but what is the solution to get it to fire normally?

          Edit: after mean tear downs the culprit was a hammer o ring. Lesson learned.
