Turning my right feed into a Vert feed

Ok this project was the biggest I could possibly take on with a paintball gun. Basically rebuilding a 2002 WGP Autococker. Now I had a 2000 WGP autococker to work with incase something went wrong.



Here are all the parts to the project. Took the old gun all apart and just laid everything out.

Heres the right feed



Heres the Vert feed



Heres the two front blocks

Old block


New Block


Kapp low pressure regulator (LPR) which when taken apart was tough with the loctite instead of using that stuff I used yellow gas teflon tape to reinstall


3 way in the new block. This was exceptionally challenging because the last person used red loctite on the threads. In order to get that off I used nail polish remover multiple times to soften it up and then got it out with tweesers.


Front block pneumatics. Put the yellow teflon tape onto the LPR and screwed it in and then screwed in the ram and connected the hoses.


Here the front block and pneumatics are screwed onto the Vert feed body







I then ran into the problem of air blowing out of where the barrel would be. I guess I had a crappy valve that came along with the Vert Feed body, shocktech rat valve which from what I heard is an excellent valve but it just seemed to leak for me and I couldn't get it to work so I replaced it with the stock valve from my right feed. Then I talked to the guy I received it everything from and suggest I change springs but instead I just cock the marker before I air it up and everything works great with the new valve.



Once I did this I kept getting a leaking noise from the 3 way so I moved the 3 way, far back but still when I aired things up it wouldn't recock so then I accidently turned the LPR and it suddenly started to recock. I continued to turn it and bam it recocked and fired. So I took it out to my back yard and started to fire and no balls were coming out. The bolt was too far forward so I had to take the cocking rod and move it back farther. Once I did this took it back outside and balls just fell out of the barrel, velocity was too low turned it up and started ripping shots.

Heres the black plague
