You are about the most missinformed lvl 10 ignorant person on this board from what I can tell. I suggest you spend the rest of your time reading past threads on Lvl 10. Why in the world would you have even ordered one with you lack of knowledge? Sheesh...I am just astounded at your comments.

I agree that was downright rude to just bust out with that comment. Use your head, think before you order.

I went in this knowing anything could happen, afterall it is beta, and any other beta I have participated in has had its flaws here and there. That is why it is not officially released and why it has a reduced price.

So what if mine was a little off, thats the machining industry for you. When your dealing within thousandths for fitment, anything can happen even during a production run (look at IBM's hard drives for example :) hehe). The bits could wear and then you could be out of spec, or when brazing, the heat could slightly warp the smaller peice being joined. If machining / manufacturing was always 100% why do we have nearly 10 different carriers? Plus this is supposed to go in varying types of guns, valves, and bodies that all have varying amounts of use and abuse. It took me about 30 or 40 minutes of carefull sanding with 80, 200, and 400 grit papers.

Ive had to do more work on lapping 60$ waterblocks that fit on my cpu. These things can come so uneven sometimes you risk a 200$ processor just putting it on because it wont sit on the die 100% and cant transfer heat fast enough and out comes the magic smoke :) Meanwhile the next guy can slap his on half-"you know", and its perfect.

I put the superbolt on and tried to install the valve. The valve wouldn't seat. I finally realized that the bolt wasn't going thru the washer inside the main body, my original bolt goes thru fine, but I couldn't get the superbolt II to go thru.

I am having the same problem. I just bought my second LVL 10 kit for my RT. I started to set it up and I realized that the superbolt 2 will not go through my RT body. It gets stuck on the spacer inside the body. I tried my superbolt 2 from my emag and it would not work either. My original stock bolt goes through fine. I am assuming that there is either a size difference from body to body or there is a problem with the body. I see that Tom is saying that the body is burred, but I do not see any burrs in the body. I am going to take the bolt and body to work and see what I need to do to make this work.

yea,i had that problem with the rail bushing before also....but if thats the case,why does his stock bolt fit?

Sam look at the dates on this thread. I expect it is in this forum because when level 10 first came out, all the discussions on it were in main.

I think you need to do something about that dog and get some sleep :)

LOL My bad... someone must have revived this one..... that is how I saw it.

Yes..... dog must go. Someone is going to get it today....

[Load SM5]

Sam, with all this talk about your neighbor's dog. Should this not be moved into Friendly?

[shartley]

Yeah! That's right!

(But I don't know how "friendly" things will get today. )

You screwed up your L10 by sanding it. It was intentionally left larger to reduce blowback. I too had the burr in the main-body - it took 5 minutes work with a needle file. The same SBII fit fine in my mini-mag body.

I'm sure the impact to peformance in minimal - but in the future (before altering things) consider that maybe it was left larger for a reason. I assumed that the tip was larger due to quality control issues during brazing, but a quick post here cleared things up.

Shartley: I'll just loan you my dog for a while (large Dobermann). He wouldn't hurt the Beagle (except maybe if he tripped over the little thing), but most dogs in our neighborhood give up barking when ol' Sultan cuts loose with his reply (we've tried to get him to use syllogisms and rhetoric in his arguments, but he still goes for volume, every time. sigh.)



Heh. Good Dog.

[shartley]

Thanks.. but a large dog is not what I need. I already have one.

Close..... but I think the owner would get more use out of it. Yes, he is one of THOSE neighbors....
