    gun leaking out bolt...

    ok, after i shoot my gun once or twice it starts leaking out of the front of the bolt. if i hold the trigger back, it doesnt leak, but if i let off it leaks. i think i need a new spring. when i was using co2 on my gun, it was leaking & i brought it to the shop & the stupid shop owner looked at my spring & said "oh, this needs to be longer" then he streches it out. shows how smart he is. i think thats what messed up my gun. any info is appreciated. thank you.

    I don't think it is your spring but it might be your powertube spacer or powertube o-ring.
    set up: Micro e-mag with 32 degree chrome flame drop, Level 10, 88/4500 crossfire, 12 in CP, 32 degree whisper and ARADUS 14in barrel, EVO II.

        Sometimes as parts wear you need to change spacers. It could also be something with the spring wearing out. You NEVER want to streach out a spring which has worn out, that will make it worse. The spring should be highthen the tip of the bolt. Is it? How logn is the spring?

          i dont think anything is wrong w/ the spacer. the spring is 2/10ths of a cm above the bolt, i know thats pretty worn...
