Re: seating probs

I would go to a hardware store and buy an o-ring or order one through tippmann parts. I always ask this....are the "wings" on it horizontal or vertial?

Re: seating probs

The easy way to fix the position of the barrel adapter is to loosen off the front screws closest to the barrel adapter, then twist the barrel adapter as far clockwise as it'll go. It'll stop when it's in the right position, then you just retighten the screws.

And yes i'd grab an o-ring for it if I were you. Makes for a more snug fit.

Re: seating probs

I had my A5 barrel adapter and a Lapco autococker-A5 adapter modded to accept dual orings for extra stability. I found 1 oring isnt enough since the adapter ends up pivoting around that single oring. The dual orings drastically help.
