Hey guy, today at practice my geo was getting bolt stick after the first case of paint. Its got about 30k on it and has never had an issue. So specs on the gun..
Soft tip bolt
SFR all the way down
Dwell 27
290Fps
Solenoid power low

Nothing about the gun has changed, its been that way since I bought it. I use PE grease and clean it after every weekend of play. The reason I think it may be a paint issue is because the few times I pulled the bolt out it had oil on it and another geo3 and geo2 went down with the same issue and they both have never had that problem before.
The gun was fine if I pulled the bolt and cleaned it after every case. This is the first time I used this paint to.

Any thoughts?

Its cold like down here, set you noid power up to high and bring your sfr to half or 12 clock.

It was 60*
I was playing indoor.

Try changing your battery, with a name brand battery. Mine did that one time.

I have a new energizer lithium.

If the paint is wet it could be it. Gelatin is really sticky so if it gets on the bolt oring and sits long enough it would cause bolt stick.
But next time turb the SFR to between 1-2oclock and you should be fine.

The paint was pretty oily. Not wet and not like a broken ball in the bag. If you've ever used the paint at Boston indoor thats what his concern is. Hi Johnny

Thats what I did to fix it but shouldnt it be able to shoot with it all the way down. It did before.

Even with correct amount of PE lube and fresh battery, mine also does not like to function properly for very long with SFR all the way down. I bet they will release another SRF adjuster at some point to correct this, or a new stock dwell recommendation (have not tried yet). More then likely the manufacturing was not exactly to spec on every SFR and some might be a little too restrictive?

[jonny72888]

my dwell is up and it seemed to be fine. its just weird that now its broken in and its having the issue.

The only time I had to turn my sfr up is when I play in cold weather lime 45* or less.
