help with classic valve

[JacenR]

i still run co2 through my mag since im not a serious player of any type, and im pretty sure i froze the orings in the valve. i replaced all the orings and had local shop guy look it over but it still wont work. any ideas on what could be wrong?

[Dayspring]

What is it doing / not doing?

Weird noises?

If you freeze your mag up due to CO2 liquid, just wait a moment and it usually corrects itself. The o-rings usually don't need to be replaced. If the gun still doesn't work, then its usually not the CO2 that caused the problem.

Give us more information and we'll try to help you. I'm sure its just a simple fix, afterall, its a mag.:D

at first it would sort of sputter and fire occassionly, but then it completely locked up and wont do anything. i know co2 is getting through because the trigger is getting pushed out, but when i pull the trigger, nothing happens.

Just getting liquid Co2 in there shoudln't do this. Your sure everything is back together correctly, and you don't have any "trigger jobs"?

[JacenR]

just an intelliframe, and every oring that i took off, another went back on.

[JacenR]

although, my friend did just say that he left the co2 tank on it for several hours overnight when i let him play with it a week or 2 ago. could that have affected anything?

[PyRo]

Stupid question, but is your velocity like all the way down. Turn the nut in the back in untill it starts leaking then turn it back out so it stops.

[JacenR]

eh, cant find anything to turn it with at the moment, but it is turned up about 60% of the way as of last time i used it

[PyRo]

Your friend didn't screw with the velocity or anything else though did he?

[JacenR]

says no, only thing that went into it was a box of paint

how many turns down is it from the last time you used it? it only takes about 1/16 of a turn to go from 260-290 on my mag. if it several full turns out from the last time you used it. I bet the reg is not even on enough to shoot.

Updates? Try adjusting the velocity.
Last time I left my mag at my friends house and he "didn't touch" i pulled the valve out to find the thing covered in paint. I have no idea how he manged to break that many balls, I usually never have a problem.
