Dangerous Power Issues

[nvghostrider]

Not a blast thread, seems problem resource threads may be helpful for future referance to those shooting DP markers. Post breakages, stopages, remedies, settings, and pics of such things to help keep their DP guns running.

g3 regs are not fun to mess with!

Problems, issues, remedies? Give us some insight into the DP reg.

I have a threshold and very rarely it will shoot little puffs of air and not shoot a ball. At first I was really angry that I couldn't figure out what was wrong and started to dislike the gun. The problem was that there was an air build up or something in the bolt and all I had to do was to unscrew the bolt and release the air. Other than that minor issue with a quick fix, great gun.

Cool. Thanks for the issue and fix. Now I want to ask Threshold shooters I know if they had the same issue.

I've seen a few whose regs have a problem of creeping up in pressure to unsafe velocities. One guys was shooting 450fps at our field. I asked the tech what was causing this and he said that there is a small plastic piece inside of the reg that tends to either deform or break and this prevents the correct regulation of the high air pressure causing the velocity to go up with the pressure. The only fix is to order a replacement from DP, but most recommend to just upgrade to another more reliable regulator.

Funny, we saw this too. So far the reg seems to be the only negative part we've seen with the G3's.

Does anybody knows if this same problems occurs with the G3 SE's?

[nvghostrider]

More than likely. They have the same reg, just special anodized colors.

My only problem with my REV-i when i try to use the clear window on the bolt it start leaking form the window.Why? Because the clear window it was cut unheavenly and thats why it was leaking.So when you buy a REV-i Make sure that you tested with both of the window the metal one and the clear one so you dont have the same problem that i have!OK!So good luck on you next REV-i buy!

Major Problem with leaks on the clear window of the bolt,You can used the stock metal one with out a problem but the clear.Mine come cut uneavenly and start leaking,so when you buy your's make sure that you tested both of the windows the clear one and the metal one so you dont have a problem at the end.Good luck on your next buy of your new REv-i.

leaks on the windows on the bolts not the metal one the clear one! do the test on both windows when you purchase one because mine come cut unheavenly and start leaking.
