I bet he'll check back, this is how to repair a gun when it's broken like this. I would have an article up if I owned the pic. I'll ask pilchard later.

Put an extra spring in the gun to close the trigger assembly. It won't look exactly like that, but you should still be able to do something similar in a 2500.

The exact thng happened to my 1200. I used hot glue where he put duct tape. But now with the powermod, that isn't working well enough. Wow, thnx doom, I'll take the trigger spring out of my broken Max-D 2000 and fix it.

GASP! Now my 1500(0) has a chance at working! Thank You!

Man, and I thought this was common knowledge. B)

I think this is a very common problem that has caused many soakers to RIP. This will teach us all not to leave out guns pressurized! Doom, even if you can't get pictures you should make an artical on how to fix this. If your lucky, I'll do this to my 12k and spend the time to film with my video camera, and give you some frames for pictures. Or if Racer has a digital camera I think it would be easier for him.

That's not the problem. I never actually have done this in my life. That picture was taken by pilchard, legally I need to ask him if I can make an article about it. <_<

BlueSmudge · 05-26-2004, 06:59 PM

Then what is the problem? Thats how it happened to my 1200. And thats how it happened to this guy.

Ben · 05-26-2004, 07:36 PM

Dude, can't you read? I said I couldn't use the image because it's not legally my image, it belongs to pilchard. I never have had to do this before. You can't just take someone else's image and then use it, that's copyright infiringement. And even if I say that the image is not ours to use, that still is not what I want SSC to be, a site which steals images.

His problem was solved and this is going off topic. Topic locked.
