I don't think I have ever encountered something squeaky like that. I don't see how the trigger could be squeaky, but the pump I think may have had water on the inner part that caused this problem but I'm not sure. See what the others about this, maybe they have had a squeaky gun before.

Btw you typed tiored in your edit I guess you still are tierd :Hey, that's funny.:

yea,still tired -_- I got like an hour of sleep since I was looking through my backyard with a flashlight most of the night to find stuff I could use for bases and things like that ;) the pump squeaks whenever im pushing it back in, it's kinda like a low pitch door opening sound.may it have something to do with the bladder thing filling up? sorry I don't know much about soakers yet so I don't know what I'm really talking about, but I think it might have something to do with it ;) The trigger only makes a high pitch noise when I'm releasing it. Maybe I just need to oil it or something like that ;)

My 4100 does that too, it probably does not effect the gun. But like you said bad in battle. -_-
Soak, or be soaked that is the question!

I don't think it's anything bad, at least from my experience. If you don't want any sounds, just grease the pump and trigger. Also read the Pump Mods article for more information on greasing pumps.

This is the sound of the innards working. If it is an issue with the gun not pumping or trigger pulling smoothly, add WD 40 carefully. Do not get WD 40 into the pump cap, only the shaft. If you have a track-pump, you don't have much to worry about. Please Review all Board Guidelines for instructions on proper spelling and grammar, policies, etc.
