vdub, does the ratchet work at all? or is it skipping? I'm told it is not working at all...i'm going to get a plastic replacement today so i can play with it this sunday, but apperently those keep breaking...so taz says just to get the aluminum one so i won't have to worry about it again...

Funny, I have been using mine for over a year without issues. Guess the high ROF tends to wear them out.

Mine has the R/T on it. I don't do the full auto much. I ratchet is actually designed as a wear part anyway.
If you were close by I could give you one, I have extras.

yeah...there is one painball supply store in the area(with in 2 hours) and they don't carry replacement ratchets anymore, guess he had a few in stock for 4 months then never got more when they finally sold. i hate living in a small town sometimes. hopefully one of the irregulators will bring me one this weekend so i can play with it on sunday...otherwise i'm gonna have to wait a while to use it.

Did you get a ratchet? I can mail you one. Too late for Sunday, but at least you can have it ready for the next game. We have an authorized Tippmann repair place in Portland that can get any part. Best thing about it is no shipping charges. I hate paying $8 to ship a $2 part!

Cool! I like it when it is an easy fix. You could always turn DOWN the ROF!!

screw? are you talking about the little screwdriver slot is stripped? you must have the oldest board.. dont worry that ones caps off at about 15 bps. Gta board is the only one right now with a "pot" to turn.All other tippman boards use buttons. I have all of the different types.. ask away if you need help.

If you haven't gotten the Ratchet mod yet let me know, Lapco just came out with their all metal ratchet mod and it seems to be alot sturdier than the Tech-T models..I have a few laying around here and I could offload one really cheap.
