    Is my sear wearing away or am i crazy? Plz help

    I bought a used emag and my charger is on order from AGD so ive been playing for a couple of weeks with it in manual only. At the front of the sear (the part that catches the bolt) there apreas to be some wear. Not along the top flat part but in the angled catch piece that catches the bolt. It's not wearing away the top of the angled tooth part but the bottom where it meets with the lower part of the sear. It just seems like its deeper everytime i clean the gun after play. Am i crazy or is this actually happening. Its not a huge change but i think htere is one. What could be causing this and how could i stop it. If this helps im running an 800psi crossfire 88stubby as air. I have had a couple of times when it went like crazy reactive sweet spotting full auto. But i just degassesed and regassed and it stoped. I know going runaway like that is bad for it so i have not been doing that just playing normal semi auto style. but it apears to do it even after a normal day of play. see diagram below (for some reason it wong work with spaces so s is the sear and A is air

    That is the part that makes contact when the bolt becomes pressurized when you release the trigger and on/off. It'll only wear to the point that the sear sits flush on the bolt. It should be fine but it may need some adjustment to function at 100%.
    Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

      If you have dial calipers, measure the solenoid plunger length by measuring from the point on the plunger to the top of the arm it attaches to. It should be 3.005" total length.

      If this is too long, the sear won't drop far enough and it will chip the top part of the sear where it catches the bolt. Another way to check it is to make sure the sear is pulled all the way down and look in from the back of the mainbody with the valve out. You should see the back of the sear, the square point on it that pushes on the on/off pin should be "slightly" protruding from the mainbody. It should only be a hair above the hole in the mainbody that the on/off pin goes through.
