ok so today i went ith my friend to the paintball shop nearby and we have buyed new markers both G3 only his was black and mine was red . we got home , take them out of the box and first what we notticed that my barrel was sticky ?? and his wasn't , ok it looked strange but whatever. we took batteries , and put them to our markers we turned them on and , when my friend was pulling the trigger the light blinked ( you know how when you press it blinks ) . but mine didnt it was like i didnt pulled the drigger , light was still either slowly blinking green , or rapidly ( we turned it on and of , press the button and stuff) and we came to the conclusion that my gun is broken ??? well im going tommorow to the shop to exchange it for new but i want to know your opinion what could be wrong? ??

Make sure that you don't have your eyes turn on. If you have the eyes turned on you wont hear the "clicking sound" which is actually your solenoid cycling. He might have had his turned off, which is why his "clicked".

where can i turn this on/ off ?

[blackcelldrumr15]

....First off. Have you ever dealt with High End Electro's before? I'm going to assume not, so I'm backing up a little

Your eyes are what keep your gun from firing if there is a not a ball in the chamber. They prevent balls from breaking in the breech of the gun.

The eyes can be turned off if the player wants them off. For most guns its a button you press and hold, or you tap the Power button.

BUT!!! HERE IS MY BIGGEST RECOMMENDATION!!!

GO READ YOUR MANUAL.....NOW.....PLEEEEAAASE!

EDIT: We must see pictures!!!

but how will you explain te freakin stickin inside and outside barrel ??? i think the guy at the shop tryed to rip me off ??? because he tought i dont know nothing about the makrers? ??? btw no i dont know alot about the electronic marker cause i used the tipp so you know ;D

There are two buttons on the back of your G3 grip, one turns it on/off, the other turns the eyes on/off.

Also, check your trigger adjustment. It should be in the manual, I don't know how because I don't own a G3. If it is adjust too far, its no longer able to trip the optical switch.

If you're still having problems, Call Dangerous Power. They have great customer service and will work with you to fix the problem. If they say that you'll have to send it in or that you'll need replacement parts, bring it into the store instead and make them replace the marker, that way you won't have to pay shipping.

The G3 is an amazing marker for the price. Make sure to only use HPA with it, lube it, and don't crush the reg seat. It is very easy to mess up your reg seat by tightening the adjustment screw on your reg too much. You can get a replacement part from Dangerous Power for only the cost of shipping that fixes this issue though.

EDIT: What exactly do you mean by stickiness in the barrel?

well i am reading manual right now and i cannot see something about "2 button" besides power button "A button"

[blackcelldrumr15]

OK....where your power button is...There are TWO buttons.

One turns the marker on.

The other turns the eyes on/off.

[Tomero]

ok i think i got you , you mean that there is 2 buttons in one ??? ok i turn on marker (not clicking) , i press the second time (not clocking) i press third time so i think that i am truning off the eyes (no clicking)

[blackcelldrumr15]

Ok, I found a manual. There is only one button. My bad.

Let me read up and I'll help you out.

Replace the batterie dp marker has the tendency of badbly working on a almost dead battterie

[Tomero]

i can make a picture to show that there is NO second button want it ???

[blackcelldrumr15]

Ok, when you turn the marker on, what color is the light, and what is the flashing pattern?

I know there is only one button, I just edited my post. Sorry for getting a little worked up.

EDIT: Also, if you look in your manual it says that the solenoid can be out of place. I'm not going to have you check that since you are new to electros, but I thought I would mention it.

Any word on that flashing light pattern?
