why does spyder electra not shoot sometimes?

spyder electra 09- when i shoot it sometimes it just clicks and bolt doesnt go foward. it does it off and on and i have to assist the bolt by pushing it foward or backward to shoot it. this happens with eyes off and when there is no paintballs in and with paintballs. any suggestions?

Have you lubed your bolt? A lot of times this will happen because the built is not effectively lubed. If the bolt does not have lube then it will tend to stick. Also if it is old lube it will also tend to stick. Always good to lube your marker after or before you go to play. That means remove the bolt, clean it, and put a lil bit of lube on it.

If that's not it have you checked all your o-rings? Sometimes you will have a cut o-ring and that will be causing it to stick like that. Also is your velocity high enough? Have you oiled your valve? Always dop two drops of oil down the lil whole in your asa where you screw your tank onto to oil the valve.

There isn't much else that could be causing it unless the milling in the marker is not right. And if that's the case nothing you can do about it unless you wana pay money to get it remilled or take it back as a damaged item. Hope that is not the case and normally there is only 1% chance that will happen.
