Erex misfires

[Devolve]

ive been tryin to get my erex dme1 to work...but whenever i fire theres the sound like 3 shots....then a paintball comes out but the cocking bolt doesnt fly back.ive only been able to get 3 shots out with pullin bolt bak once....ne ideas....also im having problems with when co2 properly screwed in i doesnt even relese co2 it seems to need to be quite loose. is it jus because of the airsource bottles im using????

Souunds like your'e not getting any co2 into the valve mate.
See if you can try someones 20oz bottle with a proper pin valve/ on/off valve.

Have you had it in bits?

[Devolve]

theres deffinately co2 gettin into it.cos theres always an audible popping sort of noise...i think the parts may be sticking so im gonna go get some oil...ive been told silicone spray or dow corning.supposedly best from halfords.well neway ive used both airsources so im gonna have to wait till next week to fill my proper bottle cos im supposed to be goin pballin then......also ive herd it may be the caliber or pball......well how do i check if its good or what.....ive put a ball in the barrel and checked the light i can see...there seems to be 2 crescents .5 of a mil on each side but the other sides are touching quite tightly.....i really does either look like dodgy balls or a squashed barrel but that cant be right...ive had it since monday.....:confused:

You say it sounds like it is firing 3 shots - is it like a burping/vibrating sound? This suggests that its not recocking either cos the pressurte is too low, or in some cases too high. Take it to your local site and get them to have a look :)

Sounds like the velocity needs increasing slightly. Silicone spray is always a good idea.

cant find silicone spray newhere....and u dont even seem to have it bob.

[Fatbobs]

You can get silicone spray from any good car maintenance shop. Try to get silicone in a squirty bottle rather than a spray can as it works much better.

Tell you what, I'll go and get a job lot tomorow and add them to the shop
