about 1 1/2mo ago i ordered a 06 speed "gat" i have been playing reball with it and have yet to play any real paintball because of where i am located it is fairly cold so indoor reball sounded like a good idea.
Anyways I probably shot around 10-20 thousand reballs through it with the stock settings, shooting 220 fps. a few weeks ago i changed up my settings, dwell at 8 and lpr at around 55ish. lately the gun has been having quite bad drop off, i and my friend who is quite fimiliar with angels and knows how to work on them much better than myself are both stumped on as to why it would be dropping off, he claims that it could be the new vavle, hopefully that is not the case.
I was wondering if you had any suggestions on how i might be able to fix my angel, and if not then might i be able to send it to you and have you take a look at it, i have my warrenty slip thing that came in the box i ordered the gun straight from First Call Paintball.

we have tried several things such as upping the dwell, raising the lpr, raising the reg etc but we just cannot figure it out, so i just put it back to dwell at 8 and lpr at 55 i (believe)

Make sure that you have a GOOD charge. Most of the problems are related to a weak charge.

Also, raise the dwell up until that goes away.

And maybe give that LPR and mini-reg a good cleaning. That many shots, it's probably time for a whole servicing anyway!!

gats use 9v batteries, and it was a brand new battery, but hopefully you are right and itll be good after a cleaning

it might be because you tried to lower the setting with an already low velocity, like because most of the time when you lower the dwell and the lpr u have to up the reg, but you already have it low, so try turning that back up and see if that doesnt help
