My rifle and myself know that what counts in this war is not the rounds we fire, the noise of our burst, nor the smoke we make. We know that it is the hits that count. WE WILL HIT...

well the battery won't affect your fps.  Is the rate of fire slow too?

Torn/bad hopup bucking maybe?   If everything sounds like everything is fine, it must be ailn air seal problem.

Well I can only speak from personal experience, so I'm not a master!  But there are at least three common air leaks that I can think of:

1. Air nozzle to hopup chamber leak. Maybe a worn air nozzle or cracked hopup chamber
2. Hopup bucking.  A bad bucking will cause air to travel in directions other than straight down the barrel
3. Piston head o-ring.  A worn or destroyed o/ring will cause the gun to lose some SERIOUS compression resulting in SERIOUS fps loss
