AT Triggersby Thumper 9.04.2008 JAMMED - WONT FIRE
Solution : Try backing your back block out a turn or two. This
will open the tolerance another 1/32 and make the marker more reliable.
< 1/32 is asking for trouble.
Solution : Your pump return spring is too loose. The pump is slopping backwards putting the market into safety. Try holding the pump handle foward and 2) get a heavier pump return spring. VELOCITY DROP OFF WHILE AT'ing If you hold the trigger and pump away and notice your shots while AT'ing dont have the power of the non-AT'ed shots : here is a bit of wisdom: Your bolt has an inlet hole that accepts the gas from the valve through its little hole. If these holes are perfectly alligned, you get maxium velocity. When you AT and your timing is set at 1/16" or more, your bolts inlet hole and your valves outlet hole are not aligned perfectly anymore. Solution : Time your marker for 1/16" operations and chrony. Solution : Look at your bolt design. Your bolt may have a very small inlet hole (think 1st gen Cocker bolts). If so, get a bolt with a large inlet hole. Now look at the bolt below. See the elongated inlet hole. This allows for a bit of slop in the alignment w/o dropping velocity.
