Yea, so my A-5 recently started chopping balls, I saw at the tippmann site that I could send it in and they would fix it, anyone know how I can fix it on my own?

did you try turning the velocity down?

thats not the problem in this particular situation. But yes, I have turned down the velocity.

well i'm not too sure wat the prob is but isn't it supposed to "not" chop up balls. Thats the whole point of their new system or what not.

but i got a question. is the standard barrel for the A5 any good? or do you HAVE to get like a different barrel.

Seems someone else has the same problem. I own an A-5 too and have had no big problems, however, I do seem to go through an air tank very fast(300-400 rounds, 20oz CO2). Do you have the same results?

I found the problem or so I think, I took apart the loader, the little stars, and there was a ton of paint hiding inside, so next time I play we'll see how it works.
