i'm new to the forum and to my gun, i bought it used off a buddy of mine and it has been double firing lately. as long as i take really clean slow strokes witht he trigger its fine but when i try to shoot faster anything over like 3 BPS it starts to double fire and most of the time this leads to broken or chopped balls. Has anyone elese had this problem with their mags and how do u fix it?

Shooting 2 balls in one shot, or two seperate shots?
Check the bolt and sear for wear.

It shoots 2 seperate shots almost like it has response it fires excremly quick, even though i only pull the trigger the once

Check the bolt and sear for wear, that is the most common cause of this, along with messing with your trigger rod.

check the sear and bolt as others have mentioned.

also, pull the trigger and hold it. any sounds? leaking? if the on/off o-ring is questionable it will do this (a kinda full auto effect)

There are 4 o-rings make sure you check very carfully, a small nick can mess it up.

I doubt its a nubbin problem, I'd say itd be more like a nubbin problem if his situation was reversed.

He isn't double feeding, the marker is fireing 2 seperate shots.

Hey, you threw out an idea which is pretty much anyone of us here can do without seeing the thing for ourselves :)
Why are you sorry, you tried :) maybie he did have a double feeding problem in addition to the problem he posted and you just solved it for him :)
