I tryed out my 1500 today and it was horrible! the range was only 5-15 feet. please help! its not shooting like normal, and in a few months its going to be Soaker Season!

PLEASE!,
Racer

Man, that's bad. First, take it apart. If you can, take pictures and post them here, email them to me if you don't know how. Explaining the problem in more detail can help us make a better diagnosis as well. Sounds to me like it's not holding pressure, maybe you're not pumping it enough? Probably not.

It seems to be semi-like that problem. Is it?

RacerSoaker445 · 03-14-2004, 05:00 PM

1) thanks for the link, im going to repair it
2) I am pumping it up 20-50 times

Neuro · 03-14-2004, 06:23 PM

YES! mine has that too! thanks doom!

shadowstalker · 03-15-2004, 09:06 PM

dang that shot it as wide as the one made by my Xxp Shotgun

Ben · 03-16-2004, 04:55 AM

Yeah, that is a huge shot. I wonder why I haven't tried any mods like that?

Neuro · 03-30-2004, 04:37 PM

yes, it turns out mine has that too and with that beautiful article you pointed out to me on the _underground I should be able to fix it. I also plan to k mod it while its open - if I can get enough balloons, they seem to be impossible to find around here.

Yeah, tech soakers site was really good. When I went over to cloud's him cut off most of the valve, so it made a shot very similar to that, but now sadly cloud has lost intrest in soakers and been grasped by paintball

Good luck fixing your 1500, thats an old gun, im not suprised its having problems.

RacerSoaker445 · 04-10-2004, 08:58 AM

allright, I have found the problem, the darn thing won't hold the pressure. I am planning to open it up and check freeze it.

Ben · 04-10-2004, 09:54 AM

Ok, but be sure to look for any leaks, that may be why it doesn't hold pressure.

Since you're going to freeze the check valve, are you going to K mod it too?

RacerSoaker445 · 04-10-2004, 10:22 AM

yes, I will K mod it.
