At cup my gun was goofing up pretty horribly. Cost my team a few points, eventually switched to a Hybrid Shocker to finish out the day, ran much smoother.

Problem:

Every so often, after the gun was gassed up for a little bit, especially under higher rates of fire, the bolt would stick forward, hold down the cup seal, and air would come gushing out. I would degass the gun, allow the air to exit, regass, and still have a problem. I would have to take my swab, ram it down my barrel, and manually reset the bolt.

I went to the angel booth, told the tech my problem. After waiting 2+ hours, he looks at my gun, takes out my bolt, puts a new one in, and says "you're gone" after inspecting it for a grand total of 15 seconds.

This, however, solved nothing. Problems persisted, and I haven't really played with my angel much since then. I've been told it's my cupseal, yet I haven't taken apart my gun or done anything significant except set Joy/Rage settings.

Settings:
Joy/Rage electronic settings
57psi LPR
280psi HPR
Fresh battery, new batts in loader.

I've tried everything, I will be beyond pissed if I have to purchase one more thing to make this gun work right.

Make sure the roto-breech is fairly loose. I had tightened the two set screws on mine, so the breech opened a bit tighter, and had alot of problems with the bolt getting stuck forward. After I made sure the door was loose I haven't had the same problem again.

What is your ABS set to? On the Joy settings mine would stick exactly like you are describing. I increased by ABS and haven't had a problem since.
