The co2 is freezing the gun. You need an antispyphon tank, x-chamber, remote, stabalizer, or any combination of those (exept antisyphon and remote, that will make it worse).

i have an X-chamber i could make my tank anti-syphon. i have heard that it is not a good idea to put a 2nd reg on a mag is that true? i see that it does it really bad when i put the barrel to the ground and shoot, thats how i knew there was a problem with liquid getting into the gun. is there ant thing else i can do to the gun itself to help solve the problem more? it does it even right when i put the tank on and shoot 10 times, i cant even play a game with it.

thanks -pps

You probably know this, but your best bet is HPA.

Since you must run co2 I would suggest the anti siphon tube along with a palmer stabalizer. I know several people who do this and it seems to work well for them.
