thanks spaspecker for the info I have sent the gun of to a paintball specialist company who are in the process of repair they seem to be very knowledgeable and very efficient in their work so here's hoping.

I do not like selling broken stuff as it always comes back to haunt you if the buyer says is not as expected or more was wrong with it than I know ie dangerous. I would rather fix it than sell off a potentially dangerous gun.

I also don't like giving up on a challenge and as I've never shot one of these paintball before I was interested as to the comparison to live weapons in their make up and realism in working parts.

I had only approximated the time to fix in my pm to you it could be a 10 min job or hours, an FX gun I can strip in 16 mins but my skan 32 had taken me hours, I appreciated your pm to me and I don't want the thread to go off subject but I think your message is off kilter and subject, if I know how to fix it or had the time to go through rap 4 website for hours then I would, and no I don't know what is causing the fault, but hopefully will soon and will have it back to its forma glory.

thanks everyone for their input, I'll post once I know the issue from the repairs company as to what they had to do to get it working, if anyone wants their link pm me as they are great at messaging and supporting the customer,a bit unusual these days for most companies.
