Hi Guys,
Before I call Mike, I thought I'd run this by everyone here. I did my annual overhaul for my Phantom a while back (new springs, o-rings, and a deep clean) and since then have noticed that my pump stroke seems a bit grittier. Then, the other day I discovered that when the safety is engaged I can still fire the marker by pulling on the trigger. Just that little bit of movement sets it off. I can't find anything that looks visibly broken/worn, and the gun functions fine through the problem. I just want to figure out what's going on and fix anything before it gets out of hand. I'm also worried that the firing through the safety might be a symptom of a sear/hammer problem or something. By the way, I haven't replaced any internal parts except springs and o-rings in over 5 years. Thanks,
Wes
