Leaking

[eclipsepntblr03]

Hey,
I've got an Eclipse LED. I have a quick question. There is an O-ring inside the breech of the gun. Mine fell out sometime when i was last paintballing. Would this make my gun leak? It seems now whenever I shoot my gun, it takes up a lot more nitrogen than before. Would this be why? Thank you so much for your help.
Take Care,
Mark

if you're talking about the breech o-ring then no, it won't cause a leak.

It doesn't necessarily sound like you've got a leak, you're just losing efficiency. Try replacing that o-ring and you'll be good to go. You can get a spare from a ball detent if you need one, and a little super glue is all it takes to hold it in place.

Hey,
I need to ask someone another question. I just found a knick on the tip of my nitrogen tank, the part that screws in th gun with the pin-valve. It's onthe corner right above the O-ring and is about the size of an asterisk ( * ), its on the corner and i was curious if it would make my guin leak. I can't hear it leaking, not even the least bit. I would really appreciate your help,
Take Care,

not really...the o-ring should help make the seal there.

well, i think that the breech o-ring could be the problem, something is causing it to leak, ill try to fix that and see what happens, thank man for your help, i really appreciate it

Alright,
i need some aspects onwhat could cause my gun to leak. Its not the tank, because i left it over night and it didnt loose any air, but it lost some while it was in my gun. This has to be the breech o-ring. Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Mark
