UserID: 454 |  To Much Pressure for Trigger Valve? My K-Modded CPS1200 can not take more than 4 pumps. After more pumps, the trigger valve no longer opens, no matter how deep I pull the trigger. I opened it up several times just for that reason alone, and no changes regardless of how the trigger was re-aligned. Is it comon that to much pressure will result in the incapacity of a trigger valve? |

UserID: 75 | That shouldn't be happening. A 12K should be able to take 10-30 pumps. Did you do a CVF? The only other thing I can think of is a problem within the trigger valve itself, but that couldn't be it because it can hold the first few pumps. Weird.

UserID: 454 | Yep, it got the total CVF treatment. The trigger was already very worn down to begin with, but still could take the 20 pumps un-modded. After the mod, beyond a certain pressure the trigger valve no longer opens. Even with 4 pumps the trigger has to realy be pushed down with the upper part(more muscley part near the knuckle) of the finger in order to get a shot out. If I pump beyond 5 pumps, I have to open the soaker up and remove the PC to get rid of the pressure, which with 10 pumps is incredibly messy and explosive. |

UserID: 1 | The only thing you can do to alleviate this problem is remove balloons as far as I know. Remove 10 balloons, try it out, and then remove some more or add some more until you reach the point where your gun operates more normally.
