could it be that your bolt pin isn't in the hammer slot. i'm just guessing here, but if your hammer is a bit forward when you close the breech, your bolt won't cycle with the gun. the marker will still fire, but the bolt hole won't be lined up with the valve and so all only air you'll get to the ball will be just what can blow up around the bolt. make sure your hammer is all the way back when you close the breech. i don't even know if this scenario could even work, but it's the first thing i thought of. can you be more specific in describing the problems you're having

sry like its really confusing and hard to explain i just know that the air goes through the gun but the ram doesnt move at all and i know that its supposed to so the ball goes like 2 ft instead of being launched out

Input pressure too low? LPR too low?

does the ram cycle? it sounds like it does if the valve is being engaged...

ok guys i found out that the threads on the ram where you screw in the hammer are like completely gone (stripped badly) so i have to send my gun to wdp to get it fixed.....which sucks cause i need to fix it and sell it asap so i can get my 05 speed......soo does anyone know how long it might take for them to send it back?

??? How in the heck are your ram threads stripped? I think this is one for Kens Hall of Shame.
