    RT Bumper question

    Well, I havn't played for a while, and I'm gonna be playing pretty soon. After inspection of my marker, I noticed one thing that could pose a problem. The Bumper (the flat o-ring in between the bolt and the valve) is worn. Right in the center of the o-ring, it's worn, so It's not tight against the powertube, it's a little loose. I don't have any air so I can't try it out. Do you guys think this will be a problem? I could order another one, but I want to wait till the 90degree warp feed adapters are in.

    Thanks!

    It is just there to keep from haveing metal to metal contact between the bolt and the valve body. If it appears to be capable of keeping that from happening I wouldn't worry about it, for now. I would replace it when I had the chance.

      As long as it's on the valve and not completely cracked in half, it's fine.

        Your fine until it has enough slack to get stuck by the bolt traveling backwards, then your in trouble.
        You can get a new one in a Parts Kit.
        Hope this helps...
        Keep it simple, play fair!
