My gladius long will not fire, air cylinder is full, I can cock the gun but it dry fires. Never had an issue before. The gun is approximately 2 years old. Any ideas would be very helpful.

Is there any air being discharged out of the barrel when shot? Is there a pellet or multiple pellets stuck in the barrel? YO!

Yup sounds like the valve stem is either bent or broken. It happens and they tend to be cheap to replace.

If you unscrew the air cylinder off the rifle you should be able to see the tip of the valve pin. If it is still there grab it and see if it pulls out

If its not the valve pin ,, may be poppet bent .. cant remember if the poppets are in the valve body/tank internals on those guns or not. Should be same set-up as bt65, same tank style atleast..
Did this happen just out of the blue,, or between shots?

Yeah. Possible that something bent or. Broke .. that's where I'd check first,, taking air tube off and digging into the valve area
Really,, it's even possible you had some dust/dirt get in the fill probe, and work its way in, and clogged the valve from the inside..
