i have hit the 8000 shots mark on my A1. i was wondering what maintence i should do to it? Also, i have just noticed that when i shoot it in demo mode without air the solenoid click sounds really weak. sometimes it sounds stronger and more clear, and other times it sounds distorted and weak. i replaced the battery and the problem persisted. what should i do?

if the problem is just on demo mode it wont matter cuz you cant shoot it with paint anyway so its kinda pointless

At 8k shots, you should pull out your ram and clean it. Then just re-grease it and pop it back in. I use Gun Butter (slick honey) on mine and have zero problems. My gun has about 30k shots on it.

Just wipe down old lube..check o-rings(replace if needed) then re grease...i use the grease i bought form bob and also occasionally the new sp grease(sleek)
