    Thanks for the response. Yes the gun was properly lube. The one thing that I want to make clear, the gun test fire through three magazine's flawlessly , one magazine in semi-auto, the other two magazines in fully auto no problems. But right now the gun will not even shoot in semi-auto consistently let loan fully auto. You have to pull the trigger two or three times just to get it to shoot once and semi-auto. Also is there another way that you and I can speak more freely.

    Just checked my 13ci/3000 tank that came with my new T15 and my output is 780 also. Guess I will order the First Strike kit with the spring and shims and get it done on a rainy day, because I am definitely gonna be wanting the full auto kit at some point.

    You can always try contacting first right directly, and mentioning that your tank only came at 780 psi. They may wind up sending you what you need to up the pressure to be able to run full auto.

    @@Prudyk1026 yeah i think i will try that. I pumped my tank up to the full 3000 pounds today and checked again and still 780 output. I bought my T15 and a couple hundred dollars of rounds directly from First Strike so they may help, but i just checked and they are sold out on both the spring kit and the full auto kit on their website.

    Just unscrewed my 13ci/3000 tank from my T15 and the tank itself is leaking out of that top pin. I tried giving it a quick push down and releasing and it helped but is still leaking. It is only 3 weeks old, you ever had this happen ??? I have the new spring/shim kit so i guess i will tear it down and see what happened in there.

    If you’re hoping/need to have a tank output to be at a minimum of 900 psi then installing a high pressure spring is the way to go... The tank will be safe if the proper spring is used and installed correctly. I’m not familiar with the air rifle end of things. That would be something the end user would have to conclude.

    hello paul a few days ago i bought a full auto kit, i would like to ask you what is the pressure of the tank at which i should work, i was trying to configure it and i couldn't. my tank is 68 ci at 4500 psi. Possibly this affects the rate of fire. What do you recommend me? I haven't found much information about it.

    You can pick up spring kits (and they come with shims) from most FS retailers. If yours in the US, you can try rockstar tactical, magfed pro shop, or ans gear. In Canada Defcon paintball should have, and paintball gear.ca

    I’m not getting the same accuracy once I switched to remote line. I’m using a 48ci 3k FS tank. Now I’m not sure if I need to buy a regulator and additional shims to up the output pressure. As of now it just feels like the balls aren’t traveling as far and accurate as it was when tank was directly connected to ASA. Any response would be helpful. Thank you.

    Best thing to do i measure your tanks output pressure. Im guessing when its tank in stock you have more than enough, but with a remodeling, you typically loose around 25ish psi. That could make the tank have just barely enough output psi to cycle the marker

    I bought one of these to go with my cs1 which I've heard runs much better with output more like 500psi. Can this be adjusted to below 600? I've heard people buy low output kits for these and still can't get it below 800. Any advice?

    You can buy spring kits to bring it as low 350ish psi.. they have extra low(350psi), low(450ish psi), mid (550ish). Ild recommend using the low spring, and then use included shims to bump it up to 500 ish

    The fs tank from the factory are typically set between 825-850 psi. If for some reason the tank is putting out less than 800 psi, the marker will burp or go full autoish from the lack of sufficient air pressure to push and reset the bolt.

    Depends on what your speed ball marker needs for tank output pressure. If u take all the shims out of a stock reg, you will still be at about about 780-800 psi. You need to change the piston spring if you need lower pressure
