Unpack the EnvyTM and its barrel. Screw the barrel into the front of the
marker, hand tight. Take care not to strip the barrel threads or over-
tighten.
Put the supplied barrel
blocker over the end of the
barrel, securing its cord as far
back on the EnvyTM body as
possible, and cinching it tight.
Fill the loader with paintballs. If it is a powered loader, turn it on. While wearing ASTM compliant paintball goggles, in an area where all bystanders are protected, remove the barrel
blocker and re over a chronograph to measure the velocity. Using a 5/32-inch allen wrench on the adjuster in the bottom of the vertical regulator, turn clockwise to increase the
velocity/pressure, and counter-clockwise to decrease. Take three or four shots after every adjustment to allow the gas pressure inside the EnvyTM to stabilize. Adjust until the marker
is ring consistently within the limits for the eld where you are playing (for safety reasons, never adjust the EnvyTM to re at greater than 300 feet per second). Depending on what
modes of re are allowed at the eld where you are playing (semi-automatic, rebound, etc.) you may need to adjust the EnvyTM’s ring mode. See the Electronic Adjustment section
for more information.
Fit a paintball loader into the feedbeck
of the EnvyTM. Use a 7/64-inch allen
wrench to lock the loader in place.
Powered force-feed loaders are
recommended, as the EnvyTM has
little recoil, and can easily outpace an
unpowered or agitating loader.
Gently gas up the EnvyTM by
slowly turning on the air system
or screwing the CO2 or screw-
in style HPA system into the
bottom-line ASA.
A gentle rise in pressure
is important, as a sudden
blast may reduce the service
life of the Envy®’s internal
components.
Turn on the EnvyTM by
pressing the power button
momentarily.
Although the power button
serves as the EnvyTM’s safety
switch to prevent accidental
ring, it should never be relied
upon in place of a barrel blocker
and proper eye protection.

The EnvyTM has been designed with
simplicity in mind so that you can
concentrate on your game instead of your
marker. It has only one major moving part
in its valve system, with a minimal number
of seals. This DOES NOT mean that you
should neglect your EnvyTM. If you take care
of it off the eld, your EnvyTM will take care
of you on the eld. For best performance,
clean and grease your EnvyTM frequently.
Many players disassemble and clean their
EnvyTM after every day of use. While this
may seem a bit extreme, being vigilant in the
upkeep of your EnvyTM will extend its useful
life considerably, and catch any problems
when there is time to correct them before
the next game. Playing in the rain will not
damage your EnvyTM. In fact, the EnvyTM.
has been tested and proven to function
underwater. However, long-term exposure
to moisture can cause rust damage to some
of the EnvyTM’s screws, so if your EnvyTM
should become waterlogged, remove the
barrel, stock and rubber grips and allow
it to dry out, then follow the disassembly
instructions for full cleaning. Clean out mud
and paint with a damp cloth and alcohol.
Lubricate the EnvyTM ONLY with GR33SETM
pneumatic grease. Use fresh, high quality
paintballs for best performance.

BARREL BLOCKER IN USE
USE HIGH PERFORMANCE LOADER
The Barrel Blocking Device is a critical piece of paintball safety equipment - nearly as important as
paintball goggles. The Barrel Blocker serves to protect against accidental discharge of a paintball by
catching it before it can cause harm. A Barrel Blocker is included with the EnvyTM and must be used every
time it is handled in an area where people or property are not properly protected by paintball goggles or
paintball eld netting. To use the Barrel Blocker simply slip it over the end of the barrel and stretch its
cord back over the back of the EnvyTM or the rearmost part over which it can be securely looped. Use
the strap’s adjuster to cinch the strap tight, so that the Barrel Blocker can provide protection against
accidental discharge of a paintball.
The Barrel Blocker should only be removed when the EnvyTM is on a “live” paintball eld and all persons
involved are wearing proper paintball protection.
The EnvyTM is a high performance tournament grade paintball marker. Its low-force bolt will often prevent
paintballs from being chopped if the hopper is not able to load paintballs as fast as the EnvyTM is
being red. If you want to realize the EnvyTM’s maximum repower potential, especially if it is upgraded
with a circuit board that utilizes an anti-chop eye for higher rates of re, you will need to use a high
performance loader. High performance loaders, especially those which provide force-feeding, will yield
the best results with the EnvyTM.
The EnvyTM is equipped with a clamping feedneck that allows it to adapt to the small size differences
in hopper neck sizes, yet lock or release quickly. Using a 7/64-inch allen wrench, loosen the clamping
feedneck before installing a hopper. If the hopper is a tight t, a at bladed screwdriver may be used to
further spread the gap in the feedneck clamp, provided the clamp screw has been loosened enough.
The EnvyTM may also be congured so that the hopper is located to the right, left, or directly above the
center of the marker. See the Advanced Maintenance Section of this manual for instructions to change
or reposition the feedneck.

NEVER PUT OIL IN A COMPRESSED AIR REGULATOR OR
TANK - ONLY APPLY MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDED
LUBRICANTS.
GASES
The EnvyTM is a low-pressure paintgun. It operates at approximately 160 psi, which means it is capable of
functioning well with either high-pressure compressed air or CO2 as a power source. Proper set up of your
gas system will help you obtain the best possible performance from your EnvyTM.
Whether using compressed air or CO2 it is important that the EnvyTM is not exposed to sudden “pops”
of pressure. Always turn-on or screw-in a compressed air system or CO2 slowly, so that the valve opens
slowly, and the gas pressure inside the marker is raised smoothly. Be gentle to the internals of your EnvyTM
and they will reward you with a long service life.
High Pressure Air systems (HPA) are the preferred power source used in paintball as they are unaffected
by temperature uctuations and do not have the potential for liquid problems. HPA systems consist of
a tank and a regulator, and are typically rated to store air or nitrogen at pressures of 3,000 or 4,500 psi.
Although pure nitrogen is almost never used in paintball, many players call compressed air “nitro” as air
is made up of more than 70% nitrogen, allowing the two gasses to be used interchangeably in paintball
equipment.
The EnvyTM is congured for use with screw-in style HPA systems. Although HPA systems pre-set to
deliver approximatly 400 psi (low output) will work with the EnvyTM, 800 psi (high output) systems are
preferred, to reduce the risk of gas starvation under rapid re.
Never use oil or any petroleum based cleaner or lubricant in a compressed air regulator or tank. Exposure to
pressurized air increases oil’s ammability and can cause a serious safety hazard. Only use manufacturer
recommended lubricants with compressed air systems, and follow the manufacturer’s maintenance and
operation instructions explicitly.
If you are using your EnvyTM with an adjustable output compressed air system, it should be set to deliver
about 800 psi. The EnvyTM’s vertical regulator can accommodate a wide range of input pressures, so
exact adjustment of the air system is not critical.
FIG. 3 HPA TANK BEING FILLED
GASES
NOTICE
Due to shipping restrictions, CO2 and HPA tanks are sold empty. They must be lled before they can be
used. Most paintball shops and elds are equipped to ll HPA tanks. Paintball shops, elds, many hardware
stores and sporting goods stores will have the equipment and trained personnel to ll paintball CO2 tanks.
The EnvyTM is factory congured for use with
CO2. Its dwell setting must be changed to obtain
optimum performance with HPA. See the Firing
Modes / Dwell section of this manual to learn how.
NOTICE
04
Although the EnvyTM can be powered by
compressed air, typical home, garage or industrial
air compressors cannot provide the high pressures
required to ll a paintball HPA tank. Paintball HPA
systems can be relled by paintball elds and
stores which use higher pressure compressors
similar to those used in the SCUBA and reghting
industries.
NOTICE
GOGpaintball.com
CO2 is usually not recommended for electronic paintball markers. This is not the case, however with
the EnvyTM. As long as it is set up properly, the EnvyTM can function extremely well with CO2 as a power
source. In fact, because of its extremely low operating pressure, the EnvyTM has been shown to operate
on CO2 continuously under heavy re conditions where older design blowback mechanical markers fail.
The use of CO2 will not damage the seals in the EnvyTM, freeze or cause damage to its circuit board.
The important thing to remember if using CO2 is that best performance can be achieved when only
gasseous CO2 is fed to the EnvyTM, and liquid CO2 remains in the tank.
Although the relief valve integrated into the EnvyTM’s vertical regulator provides the marker with
protection from pressure spikes, those pressure uctuations can cause poor performance, and
temporary blockage of the EnvyTM’s solenoid valve.
The bottom-line ASA tting on the EnvyTM places the CO2 tank at an angle. When the marker is held
in typical ring positions, gravity will keep the liquid CO2 away from the tank valve, preventing it from
feeding into the marker.
Alternative CO2 arrangements include placing the CO2 tank vertically in a pack, and using a paintball
CO2 remote hose to feed CO2 to the EnvyTM. This arrangement not only prevents liquid CO2 from entering
the marker, but also makes the marker assembly lighter weight.
Anti-siphon CO2 tanks contain a J-shaped tube that draws gaseous CO2 from the top of the tank
when it is in a horizontal position. Anti-siphon tubes must be professionally installed, to ensure that
critical safety checks are performed during valve installation. If using an anti-siphon tank, the EnvyTM’s
stock bottom-line ASA tting should be replaced with an ASA that will place the tank completely hori-
zontal. Anti-siphon CO2 tanks should not be used with remote hoses.
The bottom-line ASA tting on the EnvyTM can be removed by unscrewing the two industry-standard
10-32 mount screws holding it to the grip frame. If replacing the ASA, be sure the model chosen
takes into account the type of gas system being used (horizontal for anti-siphon CO2 tanks, angled for
standard tanks).

OVER TIME BATTERIES MAY LEAK. ALWAYS REMOVE THE
BATTERY FROM THE ENVYTM WHEN STORING FOR FOR MORE
THAN A MONTH.
BATTERY
The EnvyTM is powered by a standard 9-volt alkaline battery. Lower cost “heavy duty” batteries will not
consistently deliver the amperage needed to operate the EnvyTM. Erratic performance, especially drops in
velocity or skipped shots during rapid re can result from a battery that is not delivering full power.
The EnvyTM is also compatible with 9-volt rechargeable batteries. Because specications of batteries
vary widely from brand to brand, use of any rechargeable battery will require testing to determine if it
can power the EnvyTM reliably. Some NiCD “9v” rechargable batteries actually operate at 7.2 volts. These
types of batteries will not work well with the EnvyTM.
Any time the EnvyTM exhibits erratic performance, drops velocity or skips shots while rapid ring, does not
shoot or does not turn on, the rst step in troubleshooting should always be to replace the battery with a
brand-new, name-brand alkaline battery.
To replace the EnvyTM battery, use a 5/64-inch allen wrench to remove the two screws from the left side
of the rubber grip, then open the grip. Remove the old battery, taking care not to bend, kink or strain its
wires. Unsnap the battery from its connector by pulling on the connector, not the wires. Snap in a fresh
battery, then place that in the grip frame, tucking the wires into place, before closing and re-securing the
grip.

Even the best quality paintballs will vary in size from one batch to the next and as weather conditions
change. While your EnvyTM will work well even with a poor paint to barrel t, optimal performance will
be achieved with a proper t.
The ideal t between the paintball and the barrel is when the ball is inserted in the bore (the end that
screws into the EnvyTM) and does not slip or roll through to the muzzle (the business end) on its own.
The ball should sit in place, even when the barrel is pointed straight down. If the paintball can roll out
on its own, the t is too loose. The ball should be able to be expelled from the barrel by blowing it out,
like a blowgun, using a minimal amount of breath. If the ball is difcult to blow through, the t is too
tight, which can lead to ball breakage.
The velocity, or speed at which a paintball is red from the EnvyTM, must be measured and adjusted to
below the paintball eld’s velocity limit immediately before each day of play (for player safety). If CO2
is used, velocity should be checked and adjusted multiple times during the day. In an area where it is
safe to re paintballs, while wearing ASTM compliant eye and face protection for paintball, re three or
four shots over a chronograph to measure the velocity at which the paint is being red.
If velocity adjustment is necessary, Use a 5/32-inch allen wrench on the adjuster in the bottom of the
vertical regulator, turn clockwise to increase the velocity/pressure, and counter-clockwise to decrease.
Take three or four shots after every adjustment to allow the gas pressure inside the EnvyTM to stabilize.
Adjust until the marker is ring consistently within the limits for the eld where you are playing. For
safety reasons, never adjust the EnvyTM to re at greater than 300 feet per second (91.44 meters per
second).

The length of the EnvyTM trigger pull is fully adjustable. A setscrew in the lower half of the trigger limits
how far back the trigger can be pulled. Turning the screw clockwise with a 0.05-inch allen wrench will
shorten the trigger pull. Turning counter-clockwise will increase it. When setting the rear trigger limit,
it is important that the trigger pull is not set so short that the trigger does not activate the microswitch
on the EnvyTM’s circuit board, or the marker will not be able to re. Similarly, the rear limit screw must
butt up against its stop when the trigger is pulled. If the rear trigger limit is under-adjusted the trigger
will stop not on the screw, but up against the microswitch inside the marker. This situation can cause
damage to the microswitch and or circuit board.
The forward limit of the trigger’s movement is adjusted by a 1/8-inch allen wrench. The forward
trigger adjustment screw is located at the bottom of the trigger guard where it meets the grip
frame. It may be helpful to remove the marker’s rubber grips to provide easier access when making
adjustments. Turning this screw clockwise decreases how far forward the trigger can move, while
turning counterclockwise increases it. If the trigger is not adjusted to swing far enough forward, the
microswitch inside the EnvyTM will not be able to reset, resulting in the marker not ring.
Always check the trigger after making adjustments. Be sure that the trigger switch clicks when the
trigger is pulled, and again when it is released. Also make sure that when the trigger is pulled it is
being stopped by the rear trigger limit screw, not by pressing up against the microswitch inside the
marker.

Changing between ring modes is simple. Use a 5/64-inch allen wrench to open the left side grip panel.
Remove and unplug the battery, taking care to pull the battery clip away from the battery, rather than
pulling on the battery wires. Hold down the trigger while re-attaching the battery, and the marker’s
microprocessor will switch to a new mode, indicating the change by blinking the power LED. The number
of times the LED blinks will indicate the newly selected mode. Replace the battery in the grip frame,
carefully tucking in the wires, and re-secure the left side grip with a 5/64-inch allen wrench.
• Select Fire (Single Flash) - In this mode, the player can choose between semi-automatic (one shot per
trigger pull,) 3-round burst (3 shots in a row red while the trigger is pulled and held) or full-automatic
(res repeatedly when the trigger is pulled and held.) Tapping the power button while the marker is live
cycles through the ring modes, each indicated by the rate at which the power LED blinks.
• PSP (Double Flash) - The marker will re one shot per trigger pull until the trigger is pulled 3 or more
times rapidly in quick succession, at which point it will re additional shots per trigger pull up to a
maximum of 10 shots per second. If the trigger is inactive for a brief time, the marker will revert to the
beginning of the sequence, ring one shot per trigger pull, in accordance with PSP tournament rules
adopted in 2009.
• Locked Semi-Automatic (Triple Flash) - The marker will re one shot per trigger pull, and cannot
be changed without using tools to open the grip. This mode complies with tournaments, elds and
scenario games that limit players to semi-automatic mode only.
• Billy-Ball (Quadruple Flash) - This is a limited rate semi-automatic mode, ring one shot per trigger pull,
but only allowing players to re once every two seconds. Billy-Ball games games focus on movement
and strategy over heavy rate of re, reducing paint costs.
The EnvyTM’s dwell setting determines how long it opens its solenoid valve to re a shot. Because CO2
expands differently than HPA, the optimal pulse length is different for each gas. The EnvyTM is congured
from the factory to use CO2. If you intend to use HPA, you must change your dwell mode in order to
achieve best gas efciency and battery life. With the marker unloaded and de-gassed, remove and unplug
the 9-volt alkaline battery. Plug the battery back in while holding the power button down. The EnvyTM
will indicate that it has changed to HPA mode by double-blinking the power button LED and turning off.
Reinstall the battery and grip panel. If you switch back to CO2 as a power source, repeat the procedure,
and the CO2 dwell mode will be signied by a single blink pattern on the LED.

At the end of each day’s use and before performing maintenance work on your EnvyTM, it will need
to be de-gassed, and all paint removed.
In an area where it is safe to shoot (the chronograph area at a paintball eld) and while wearing
paintball goggles, remove the hopper from the EnvyTM. By turning the EnvyTM upside down, you
can empty any extra paintballs from the feedneck into your hand. Turn the EnvyTM on.
Dry-re 2 or 3 shots in a safe direction to ensure that no paintballs remain in the EnvyTM.
Continue to dry re the EnvyTM in a safe direction while turning off or unscrewing the HPA system
or CO2 tank, until all of the gas pressure inside has been released. At this point the only sound you
should hear when you pull the trigger is the click of the solenoid valve. Turn off the EnvyTM.
If using a CO2 tank or screw in HPA system, unscrew it the rest of the way.

The valve system in the EnvyTM has only one major moving part. Regular cleaning and lubrication is necessary to ensure accurate and consistent performance. The EnvyTM should
be eld stripped, cleaned and lubricated any time it shows erratic performance, becomes contaminated with paint, dirt or other debris, or for general maintenance after 3 or 4
days of use.
Unload and de-gas the EnvyTM. Remove the barrel and use a 5/16-inch allen wrench to unscrew and remove the bolt sleeve from the back.
Using a soft, non-marring tool like a wooden chopstick or plastic toothbrush, push the bolt and bolt stop out the back of the EnvyTM. Clean the interior of the receiver, the bolt
sleeve, bolt and bolt stop with a clean cloth or paper towel. Inspect their o-rings for signs of damage such as cuts or rips, and replace if necessary. Lightly lubricate all o-rings
with GR33SETM paintgun grease. Use GR33SETM sparingly, as over-lubrication can cause the EnvyTM to operate inconsistently. Slide the bolt stop onto the bolt from the rear.
Slide the rear of the bolt into the bolt sleeve. Hold this entire assembly vertically with the front of the bolt pointing upward, and insert it up into the back of the EnvyTM. Screw the
bolt sleeve into the back of the EnvyTM by hand, taking care not to cross-thread it into the receiver.
Use the long end of a 5/16-inch allen wrench to turn the bolt sleeve until it is snug. As with the bolt sleeve, take care not to over-tighen these screws.

The internal gas lines and electronic components of the EnvyTM are well protected inside its body – however they are delicate and may be damaged by improper handling or
re-installation. For this reason it is highly recommended that full disassembly of the EnvyTM be performed by an airsmith with GOG PaintballTM factory training. Removal of
internal hoses from their barbed ttings will stretch them to the point that they cannot be re-used without causing leaks.
Occasionally a more thorough cleaning of the EnvyTM receiver is necessary to clean paint or debris that has worked deep into the breech, or to replace worn ball detents.
Both are accessed through a complete disassembly of the receiver.
Unload and degas the EnvyTM, then eld strip the valve system following the instructions in this manual.
Using a 1/8-inch allen wrench, remove the screws holding the ASA to the grip frame. Unscrew the vertical regulator from the receiver’s vertical ASA. Take care not to lose
the lter screen that is inside the vertical ASA.
Remove the rubber grip and battery, as when changing the battery. Use a 1/8-inch allen wrench to remove the front and rear grip frame screws. Carefully remove the
grip frame from the receiver. Be aware that the clear power button ts loosely into its position in the side of the grip frame. Be careful not to drop or lose it. Watch to make
sure the battery clip does not snag in the grip frame as the two parts are separated.
Reach the long end of a 1/8-inch allen wrench through the access hole in the top tactical rail, down into the head of the vertical ASA screw.
Unscrew the the two gas-through banjo bolts (indicated with arrows in Figure 15) using a 1/8-inch allen wrench. If the EnvyTM has been upgraded with a circuit board featuring
an anti-chop eye, unplug the wiring harness from the circuit board or anti-chop board (pull by the connector, not the wires) and lift the pneumatic control assembly off of the
receiver.

Slide the breech out the back of the receiver.
Both rubber ball detents should extend into the breech and show no rips or tears. If they must be replaced, they may be pried out with an o-ring pick, and pressed into place
with a small allen wrench.
If the EnvyTM has been upgraded with a circuit board featuring an anti-chop eye, holding the breech and receiver upside down will help the anti-chop circuit board remain
seated while the parts are being reassembled.
When re-attaching the pneumatic control assembly to the receiver, take extreme care not to cross thread the ttings. Use the long end of the allen wrench to tighten the gas
ttings and all screws, being careful to tighten them snug without over tightening.
Over-tightening or cross threading screws or ttings may result in permanent, nonrepairable damage to the breech.
Be sure to guide the battery clip down into the grip frame before re-joining the grip frame and receiver. Make sure the clear power button does not fall out of its place during
reassembly.
Carefully tuck in all wires and hoses while rejoining the grip frame to the receiver.
If the grip frame does not t snugly to the receiver, pull the grip frame back away and look for hoses, wire, or improperly placed parts blocking the t.

Although explained here, regulator service should only be performed by a GOG PaintballTM trained airsmith.
With the marker unloaded and de-gassed, unscrew the regulator from the marker and remove the grip
frame following the instructions in this manual. Take care not to lose the lter screen that sits inside the
vertical regulator’s ASA connection.
Using a pair of snap-ring pliers, remove the snap-ring from the bottom of the regulator and slide the
regulator off the swivel. This is the preferred way to separate the regulator from the hose and bottomline
ASA because it does not disturb the sealed hose ttings and is not likely to cause a leak.
Using a 7/16 open end or adjustable wrench, engange the wrench ats in the sides of the spring platform
and remove it from the bottom of the regulator body. The regulator spring will now be free to fall out into
your hand. The brass regulator piston may be removed by tapping the regulator body against a table top
or solid, but soft surface such as a block of wood.
At this level of disassembly, the seal in the end of the piston and the regulator body may be inspected,
cleaned with a soft cloth or cotton swab, and replaced if necessary. If the regulator seal shows signs of
damage, it may be removed and ipped over so that its back side is used instead. If both sides of the seal
are damaged, it must be replaced. Lightly lubricate all o-rings with GR33SETM for reassembly.
Do not lubricate the regulator seal at the end of the piston.

The relief valve assembly should only be removed if it is constantly leaking. Occasional venting, especially
if using CO2, is normal and does not indicate a leak. The relief valve assembly may be removed with a
5/32-inch allen wrench.
The velocity adjuster is located inside the lower end of the spring platform and similarly should only be
removed if shown to be the source of a leak or clog. First the internal c-clip ring must be removed from
inside the spring platform. This must be done with a pair of narrow snap-ring pliers. Some airsmiths have
used bench grinders to re-shape standard snap-ring pliers for this task. The adjuster is equipped with
left-hand threads and will need to be turned clockwise for removal. If regulator blockage is suspected, be
sure to inspect, and if necessary, replace the inlet lter in the side of the velocity adjuster.
The vertical regulator is reassembled in the reverse order of disassembly. The piston slides into the
regulator body wide end rst, followed by the regulator spring. The spring platform should be tightened
for a snug t. Do not over-tighten. Re-attach the regulator swivel to the bottom end of the regulator and
secure it in place with its snap-ring. Reinstall the assembled regulator into the marker. Re-adjust velocity
after servicing the regulator.

MARKER IS LEAKING INTERNALLY
• Liquid CO2 may cause temporary venting from relief valve or solenoid valve. This is
normal, and does not require repair. If CO2 is venting frequently, make sure the marker
is properly congured to prevent feeding of liquid CO2.
• Pneumatic hoses may be loose, damaged or not fully connected. Replace hoses with
genuine GOG PaintballTM hoses only.
• Hose has been disconnected and re-attached. Replace with a new GOG PaintballTM
internal hose. Removing a hose streches it so that it cannot be re-used without leaking.
MARKER IS LEAKING DOWN THE BARREL
• One or more of the bolt or bolt stop o-rings are damaged or dirty. Inspect and replace
if necessary, making sure to clean and lubricate the parts following the instructions in
this manual.
MARKER IS LEAKING FROM BOTTOMLINE ASA
• Unload and de-gas the marker. Inspect the CO2 or HPA tank o-ring. Clean, lightly
lubricate with GR33SETM and if necessary replace.
MARKER IS OCCASIONALLY LEAKING FROM THE VERTICAL REGULATOR
• Gas may occasionally vent near the top of the vertical regulator, especially when
using CO2. This is a normal function of the relief valve protecting the marker, and does
not indicate a problem. If CO2 is venting frequently, make sure the marker is properly
congured to prevent feeding of liquid CO2.

MARKER EXHIBITS FIRST SHOT DROP-OFF (FSDO)
• FSDO is a low velocity, or non-ring rst shot, followed by normal shooting and is often
caused by debris in the bolt or a poorly lubricated bolt. Clean the bolt, breech, bolt stop
and bolt sleeve, and lubricate them with GR33SETM as instructed in the Field Stripping
section of this manual.
• FSDO can also be caused using the CO2 dwell setting with compressed air. Follow the
dwell selection instructions in this manual and ensure that the correct dwell setting has
been set for the type of gas being used.
MARKER EXHIBITS INCONSISTENT VELOCITY OR DROPS OFF SIGNIFICANTLY
DURING RAPID FIRING
• Check paint quality. Your marker is optimized for use with fresh, high-quality paintballs.
Paintballs of inconsistent quality, or paintballs that have been exposed to humidity or
temperature extremes may vary in size or roundness causing inconsistent operation.
• Gas could be low. Fill gas source and make sure gas supply is turned on.
• Battery may be low. This will be most noticeable with velocity dropping and then entire
shots not ring during rapid re. Replace battery with a new name brand alkaline battery.
• Regulator may be contaminated or damaged. Follow the instructions in this manual or
see a GOG PaintballTM technician for service.
• Liquid CO2 may be entering the regulator – see the gasses section of this manual for
guidance in proper CO2 set-up.

MARKER WILL TURN ON BUT WILL NOT FIRE
• Battery may be low or dead – replace with fresh name brand alkaline battery.
• The forward trigger limit adjustment screw may be set in too far, preventing the trigger
from resetting. See the trigger adjustment section of this manual for guidance.
• The rear trigger limit adjustment screw may be set in too far, stopping the trigger before
it can re the marker. See the trigger adjustment section of this manual for guidance.
• Trigger switch may be damaged. Contact your dealer or GOG PaintballTM technical
support.
• Regulator output pressure may be too high. Adjust the velocity to its lowest limit, then
follow the velocity adjustment procedure in this manual.
• Liquid CO2 may be entering the valve – see the gasses section of this manual for
guidance in proper CO2 set-up.
MARKER IS BREAKING PAINT
• Use only fresh, high-quality paintballs. Poor quality paint, or paint damaged by humidity
or temperature extremes during shipping or storage, will nor perform well.
• Ball detents may be worn or damaged. Inspect, and if necessary, replace following the
disassembly instructions in this manual.
• If the marker is equipped with an upgraded circuit board with anti-chop eye, the
anti-chop function may be turned off. Turn anti-chop on, following the upgrade circuit
board’s instructions.
