Steyr LP-10 EVO 10E not working.

My EVO 10E will not shoot properly. I am sure the trigger is on and charged. The air cylinder is filled.

After cocking, I press the trigger and it clinks like dry fire but no air. If I pull the trigger again without recharging, it shoots.

An ideas?

Thanks

I would call Scott at pilkguns.com. He services what he sells and is one of the best air pistol smiths out there.

There is typically a capacitor that gets charged up, and then that discharges into a solenoid to actuate the firing valve. It sounds like either something in the electrical process is weak enough that it takes two tries to get the valve open, or a mechanical problem that is requiring more force than the firing system can deliver on the first try.

In either case, I'm afraid you need an expert to check it out.

When in doubt, reach for the BIG hammer.

Check your battery voltage
Mine was low ( Bad Battery )
Replaced battery and it works perfect
