ok well chilip helped me on IRC but i still have questions. Im at work now so I cant try anything yet but i wil tonite.

I gas up the gun
pull trigger
bolt sticks forward a little and gas comes out the barrel.
If i push the bolt back in i can fire again and have teh same prob.

Do I need to change the brass spacer to a smaller one?
if so waht one comes inside the Retro valve straight from AGD?


I have a 215 225 and 230 (im guessing its a 220 in the valve now). So if i change them out it should work correct?

I checked and oiled the orings so this is the only other thing i cna think of that will fix it.

any answers to my questions or info would be appricated thx

(ps work's comp doesnt let me use spell checker.. ;) )

actually you need to goto the next longer spacer to get rid of bolt stick..... if the .230 spacer still doesn't do the trick give a jingle over to AGD and let them know that you need a .235

I thought the longer spacers caused bolt stick, and the shorter ones caused leaking down the barrel without trigger being pulled. I could be wrong as I'm not always right. But hell.. try them all.. you won't hurt anything.. it'll just leak a little. I'd try the short one first and see if that helps. I think you have one thats too long because the bolt is stuck on the o-ring since the long spacer causes the o-ring to be pinched out into the powertube catching the bolt.
