I have a automag 68 and when i go into a rapid fire the gun works fine the after a second in rapid fire the gun locks up in a way.very
little air comes out the end of the barrel and the paintballs just roll out of the barrel i am running nitro. This happens somtimes with drop foward and when it does i de-gas it then re-gas the gun and it works fine until it happens again.But when i run remote it never happens and i dont really like remote.

well first i ordered a new trigger rod, second, there was an obstruction in the air hose but when i tried to get it out it never came out but i might not have seen it. i am not sure if this will fix the gun but it will probably will.

It sounds like the output pressure of your HPA Tank isnt high enough. What kind of tank is it? Preset or adjustable? The reason it works fine with a remote is because the remote hose allows more air to be between the tank and the gun.

ya were gettin shoot down, common with'emm all but shouldn't happen after 2nd shot.
make sure ya got about 800psi runnin into vavle, and ya shouldn't have as much of a problem.

It is still doing it......it is a 48cu 3000psi tank. when i got it it was working fine then this problem started happening. But my cousin has the same drop foward setup and tank and he has no problems with it.

I guess it is a preset. It sounds like the output pressure of the regulator is too low to operate your gun during rapid fire. I had a similiar experience with a preset tank. My friend and I both got the same tank and mine wouldnt even allow the gun to cycle while his worked flawlessly. Sent it in and found out the factory preset was way too low. So this is most likely the case.
