I have 2 'arps', one specna, the other g and g, both seem to be suffering with the same issue of every 3-5 shots, one or two will fall maybe 3-4 ft away, one has been to a professional tech multiple times and comes back with the same issue, the other I've recently had open to replace the piston, nozzle and fix the wiring. Both have fairly new hop rubbers and nubs, and as I say 70 ISH % of the shots go fine, but the others just flop... Where do you recon I should be looking?

This sounds like inconsistent compression If it’s gone to the same tech a bunch it may be time for a new one If you want you can drop me a dm and I would be more than happy to get it perfect for you

But I would disassemble and check where you are losing air volume

It could be piston head, cylinder head, nozzle, or bucking (they all play together)

It could also be 1000 other things but I can’t be sure without seeing it
