Q:

Tank valve problem

I let a new tuner work on my gun and also the tank valve.
I have had the gun for months and shot it just enough to sight in a night vision scope, then the gun sits in the corner.

Yesterday I decided to see how well it was tuned on the Chrony.
Well, before I could shoot 2 ten shot strings, the tank valve starts blowing all the air out after a shot.
Besides the gun having no more power etc than a stock gun, the roughness of the parts, etc, etc. That is besides the point, anyone konw what is wrong with the bottle valve? What would the “fix” be?
Walt in Ha. is making a 25cal barrel, so not would be a good time to get it repaired correctly.

What pisses me off is I spent several 100 dollars and it turns out to be a piece of shit.

To ALL-
ONLY ALLOW TUNERS WITH A LONG HISTORY OF QUALITY WORK TO TUNE YOUR GUN.

Now I am stuck, laid off and do not have the $$$ to repair the gun as it should have been tuned in the 1st place.

I wish a million times over I would have sent it to Talon Tunes or Airhog to have the work done…, but me being me, trying to help someone out, trying to help him build a name working on these guns, just starting out, giving him a chance to build a reputation…, you know…, now I am “stuck”. The gun can not shoot, I have no extra $$$ to get it repaired and no night vision gun as I needed for varmints.
All because I always try to help out the “small guy”, the underdog, someone starting out, etc.
I always seem to get screwed when I try to help out people. I always get it in the end, one way or the other.

Rant over, I did not mean to rant, it just came out, LOL!
Anyhow, can anyone help with the valve problem?

Thanks:)

That is what he went by- DONG
I like to spell it in all caps or all lower case, it looks better and fits:)

DONG, DONG, DONG, DONG, DONG, DONG, DONG, DONG, DONG
dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong

Does that not look better than DonG?

Dong?

😆

Update-

I sent my gun and tank to Adam.
Several here have offered their help, everything from trying to hel fix it to offering parts if needed, etc.

I wanted to let everyone involved know what was going on- the gun shipped out yesterday.

I still may take some up on their offers for parts. Adam is going to check out the gun and tank/valve.

Thanks everyone for your help, support, suggestions, offer for parts, etc.

One thing for sure, dong is NEVER going to touch another gun and will let everyone know not to send anything to dong as there is a very good chance you will never see it again.

THANKS GUYS!!!

terrible, terrible,terrible.

quote Yellow Ninja:

100% agree!!!
We have always said- Cheap – Right- Quick, pick any 2.

Problem with this though…
It was NOT cheap (price)
It was NOT fast (work time)
It was NOT good (work quality)
I didn’t even get one of the three!!!

Lesson learned-
ONLY go with a proven record
Only go with a long record

quote get the blue jay:

all right, I have tried to stay out of the whole Don fucking people over thing, but after reading Grizzle’s post in off topic I just can’t any more so, YES Don did this, waynejitsu is just being too nice and not wanting to stir up any shit and we all know I’m not and will call it as I see it.
as far as I know Don will not take care of it nor will he kick any funds back for shity and blatantly unskilled work.
WoK , myself and others I’m sure have offered to help out and fix what we can and what can be fixed on it to get him up and shooting once again

There ya go…
