Does anyone know why my RT-Pro would lock up and not fire? I have the whole level 10 X-valve installed (by RobAGD). It just locks up and then I have to turn my tank off and then back on again to recharge it and then it works fine. The lock up comes after I shoot it really fast for a while.

Just checking...

You're not running Co2, are you?

My Xmag did that once in a while.....

I changed the number of shims in the LVL10, not sure if I added or removed, and I changed the carrier O-ring.

Seems to be fine now.

Got my problem sorted out. "bolt stick" is the culprit and can be fixed with a new main spring or tinkering with my level 10. Thanks robAGD.

Thanks Mindjob sounds like the same thing.

Try this....shoot your mag till it sticks..then tighten the field strip screw with a key until it recocks, it seems to be a tolerance issure with the new aluminum main bodies. They flex more than the old ones when tightened. Try to keep the field strip screw and gripframe screw equally tightened. Works like a charm for me, good luck.

Hmm. I'll definitely try that. I was using a ule center feed and have just switched to a tac-one body. That would be a lot easier than messing with the internals.

I seem to be having a similar issue, only mine sticks if I don't let the trigger come back fully to reset before I attempt to shoot again.

My setup is a new X-Valve in a HR PF mainbody.
