check the cocking rod hasn't come lose.

Its the rod that goes through the back block underneath the bolt.

screw it in (clockwise) tight.

 

[gregorius]

nope its not the cocking rod, might it be the timing

 

[Beaker]

if its a pretty new gun I'd be suprised if the timing has slipped enough so quickly to make it not shoot.

If its not the cocking rod I'd show it to someone who knows at the next time you play, or if you can give us a detailed description on what happens in what order we might be able to help more

have you taken it appart?

when you turn the marker on (ie air it up) what possition is the back block in? forward or backward?

ok first cock the marker, then pull the trigger, the marker should fire then the block with move back and recock then move forward again ready to fire.....does it do this?

does the rod not recock?

does it cock in the first place?

given the answer to those q's i should be able to diagnose a little better

Ok dude cocking but not firing?

Try this little lot :-

Poss one of the sear solenoid wires is broken

Cocking lug over extended

Excess friction between timing lug and sear



"Pinchaaay!"

Didnt say it was an E-Blade tho did he..im guessing STOCK means just that!!!

 

[gregorius]

Ok heres some more detail.

i cock it pull the trigger and it fires the first shot then the block comes back but i dont think its cocking because it wont fire anymore, each time i pull the trigger the block just comes back but no firing.

no its not an e-blade

Sounds almost like you're short stroking it. This may sound silly but are you making sure you pull the trigger all the way back and let it go all the forward each shot?

 

[jahlad]

ok now i know what its doing i can tell you what to check

it fires the first shot so the cocking lug is ok, first thing to check is the cocking rod, unscrew it completely and remove it from the marker, check the threads are ok, then carefully screw it all the way back in and test the marker again..........its not uncommon for people to put them back in wrong and it feels like its in ok but it isnt...........one of our new team markers was doing the same thing the other day and it was fixed by just removing the cocking rond and putting it back in.
if that doesnt cure it then the next question is, have you adjusted ANYTHING on the marker, ie the trigger/timing or the front reg. its also quite likely that the trigger adjustment can limit the 3 way and stop the marker recocking
