Threshold problem
So I got a threshold in a trade from another user, and I love the darn thing. The only problem is that it doesn't fire, at all. I was told it had bolt stick, but it seems like that isn't what's going on.
When I turn the gun on, eyes off, no air, I can hear the noid clicking. Once I air it up, the noid stops clicking, but it also won't fire. I can hear it airing up, and when I flip the RAPS off, it depressurizes, but it never will fire.
I'm not really all that knowledgeable on spollies, so I'm not sure what it could be. Any tips or thoughts are much appreciated!

does it fire sometimes and stick other times?
yes the bolt orings can be changed, but there is also an oring inside the breech that can cause this as well...
Service the noid as well, most tend to use techt gun sav, make sure you pull out the piston and lube the orings on that....
If you are looking for a good oring kit, you might want to contact rottensquad on here, i have bought a couple of threshold oring kits from him, you cannot go wrong with his kits....
your problem sounds more like the noid in my opinion, but i could be wrong...

Switch out the noid and see if it fixes your issue. Most shops will have another noid and will probably check it for you to see if it is it. If so they can probably sell you the noid and not charge you for service. Most decent shops want to help so you keep coming back.

I live in a dorm so I don't have a whole lot of time with my gun, but I'll try to tear it down, can I use sleek on the orings? Also, how much does a noid for these things usually run, because I was told it just had bolt stick, and a bad noid would probably result in me wanting to be compensated.

you can do this but it is prolly the noid getting to much pressure
relube the bolt and set the reg to 0psi
slowly raise the pressure while walking the trigger (eyes off, no paint, air on) eventually it will leak, seal and then fire. It should shoot fine after that but if it does not then you might need to rebuild the bolt with fresh orings and relube the noid.
edit: sleek will work very well
