finally. well it sucked. i think i chenged every O-ring posssable. so i didnt ever find out what the problem was. It works now. they guy who helped me fix it said they'll leak sometimes if the pressure isnt enugh to cocker it. like under 1000 or something. is this true? i think it is cuz he finally got air in my tank, and i chaned a lot of o-rings and it worked.

Under 1000? Hell no. That's way too reactive for my taste.

My friend uses his at 675.

1000? No way, you'd be going into runaway mode(trig. bounces harder than finger pulls for full auto).

isnt a crape a french pancake thing that they burn before you eat?

anyway. i have had problems with my rt when my TANK read 1000 or so. the gun was fine. just put air in my tank and was off to shoot again.

Mags don't cock. Spring returns bolt, sear latches it.

what he was referring to is the way the RT regulator works if you feed it under like 500psi (like from a low tank). If the pressure is to low the onoff just gets bypassed and the bolt "machine guns" back and forth as the chamber fills but not enough to actually hit the on off...

One of the few issues I had with my RTs when I had em.

would a 1000psi wreck the valve?? i would like to get a lil more reactive so i can bounce, i run 850psi now, and i can only bounce 2-4 shots...

The valve is rated at 3000 psi. Even if your tank reg blew it woulden't cause any damage. AGD= Quality

If you have a tank that the actual pressure in the tank is below 1000psi, sometimes it will sputter when you gas it up. Make sure you're giving it a quick burst of air to get it to seal. If it doesn't seal, use a straight shot squeggee and hold back the bolt when you turn the on/off or screw in the tank. Making sure the valve is oiled helps prevent it from leaking down the barrel when you gas it up.

Also, you can run an RT valve at 1k psi if that satisfies you.

let me clear this up.
Not the reg set @ 1000, but the tank pressure @ 1000, I had the reg @725

What were you feeding your mag to make it crap? And where did it crap out of? Be more specific so I can help you. Like what was the consistency and color of the crap? :D :eek:

i was told @ PBC that using crap instead of oil keeps the gun in better shape. preferably human

They say that 750 is fine that is what I shot mine at and it works great

once it started working it was the most accurite it has ever been, and I think it's cuz the field has a 240 fps rule. I didnt even notice the diff.
