I've recently done 2 repairs: 1 on the storm 800 and 1 on the Hydroblade
On the storm 800 I had a pump handle that was stuck and, after trying 20 or so solutions, I remembered seeing something on a website(I think it was sscentral)
I tried putting cycle oil on it and it worked perfectly.(not much of a repair)
On the hydroblade, the trigger mechanism was broken and I simply replaced the valve and homemade a trigger thing.

My most recent repair was one to repair a snapped pump shaft in the handle of my CPS 1000. I do have pictures and am intending to make a formal article on the repair. Essentially, I used a small piece of brass tubing to bridge the crack. I first thought epoxy would have been necessary, but the repair held well. I do not think you could successful perform this repair on a pump shaft cracked in the center without epoxy or another glue. Part of the reason I used brass tubing was that epoxy sticks well to brass.

I finally repaired my long broken XP 110! The trigger was broken where it meets the trigger valve (CPS guns have wire for this job, some XP used strips of plastic this broke). Trying to find a repair for my XP 110 lead me to join the soaking community, and I haven't looked back since (except to vaguely wonder where my life went (Hey, that's funny. joke)).

Not really a repair, but yesterday I 'fixed' my Max D Secret Strike trigger, It wasn't actually broken, but the way it works annoys me and I just made it work like a normal trigger (If you have used a Secret Strike then you'll know what I'm on about).

I haven't actually done it, but the Triple Aggressor's trigger disconnects all the time. I was just wondering if there was any way to modify it so it stays intact all the time.
This won't help me, I ditched my 3A as soon as I could, but I was just wondering whether it can be helped. It apparently has a very strange PC shape, which may be part of the problem.
