Hey guys ive had a problem with my marker ever since i got it and never really thought of it as a big problem as hardly really went paintballing but im tempted to come back again. I have a WGP Mg-7 (yeah they kinda suck) and its perfect when i fire 1-2 shots at a time, normally very accurate but its when i shoot quite fast when the problem occurs, as i shoot fast the balls seem to fire 10 feet out of the barrel and just land on the floor instead of shooting at a high velocity like the first few shots.

Thought it was the batteries but bought some new duracells and the problems still there, any advice would really help, cheers!

first step is to make sure that your air tank is screwed into the asa all the way

if that doesn't work then if the board has dwell adjustments then try increasing that by a couple of ms

is the velocity of the first few shots sufficient (around 280-290fps)?

hope this helps

Are you using a high pressure or low pressure tank?

LP bottle output may lead to shootdown on rapid fire

Hey ive made sure that it is screwed in properly as its pretty hard to get off, im not too sure about dwell adjustments but i will have to research on that soon and the velocity of the first shots seem to be firing fine at pretty much the same velocity its when i try to 'ramp' when the velocity decreases massively(Wasn't explained well in original method )

Hmm ive had a look on there mate and im still getting the same problem, can't seem to find any help... the only way i have found that will help it is to tune up the pressure of the gun, normally the gun should run at around 200psi but if i tune it to run at around 250psi it does help but the problem is there still but ever so slightly, the only problem is that it would then make it unusable at fields... arghhh this is annoying =/
