[Silent Sniper 529]

Hey guys! Anyway, I'm modifying a panther and I'm having a problem. When I shoot just the tank by itself, it gets great ranges! But when I put it in the shell, it gets sucker ranges. Why? It has standard OP plugs and a 1/2inch CPVC coupler. I need to correct this problem! Any help is appreciated!

While i cant render any help as Ive never had a panther, you might want to post some pics to give others a better idea of what you are dealing with. Hope someone can answer your question though.

The only thing I can imagine would be happening is that you are depressing the button for the backpressure valve very slightly. This creates a hole in your tank. Try to pump up the tank while it's in the shell, and then wait a few minutes. If it doesn't hold air, then that's your problem, and your trigger is probably out of place or something.

My first Panther had the same problem. You have a dud my friend.

It would seem like it, but if it's a dud, it's probably an imperfection in the shell/trigger, seeing as your tank works perfectly.
Is their any way to get pics up?

Try slaming down on the trigger and making sure it's positioned right and able to funtion well. (Screw buzzbee and their shitty air gun triggers!)
