hi, welcome to ssc, be sure to read and understand the forum rules. in order for us to really help you, you should take a picture of the internals, focusing on the pump, and perhaps pull out the pump shaft and show us that as well.
"I used to care, but now I take a pill for that."

You can pretty much ignore the times on that, I rarely ever have Xfire on when I play. I should, though.

right

I Don't have pics at the moment but I get them
eventually

the shaft isnt busted or anything

however, when u pump, there is no pressure as in the
if u tilt the gun, the pump will slide back and forth

maybe there is a rubber piece that stops it or something and it came loose

anyways, if u guys have any ideas please help

ill post a pic later

open it up, and dip the internals in water. If there are bubbles, there is a leak there. even the smallest hole could cause loss of pressure.

Uhhh, it's a problem with the pump shaft, not a leak. :P

I think the pump's seal has come off, you could probably glue it on. Open the gun up and check it out.

You're confusing two different articles, there is one that improves seal on most guns and one that lets your gun work without a pump cap. The pump seal one might help, the cap one wouldn't because that's not the problem, and the Max-D 6000 doesn't even need the pump cap to be on.
