I did the simple cosmetic modification on my rf ( took off black casing ), but when i pump it, the barrel rotates and it sounds like air is coming out. I really dont know what could be causing this, and ive yet to hear of anyone having the same problem.

Actually, I think I might have that problem. No idea what to do though.

I don't think your gun got messed up because you took the black casing off, it was probably just a coincidence. Does the gun shoot when you pump it, or does it sound more like a leak? If it shoots, the trigger button might be jammed.

I know exactly what your talking about. The turret isnt feeding, and its partly ebcause of the black casing. Some guns it matters, some it dont. Either way, put rubber bands around the external black piston, it should fix it.

EDIT: I reread your post, and your saying when you pump it this happens, or when you pull the trigger? if you pull the trigger and it doesnt rotate, do the above, if not, I dont know what your talking bout.

Exactly what southpaw said. The primary valve is sticking in the half-open position. The same thing happened to mine. I used a bit of silicone lubricant inside and outside the valve . I would recommend you open the gun up all the way and see if the valve sticks.

Actually, the trigger does feel rather awkward, ill have to open it up and look at it.
