as you can see my mag was working fine today. After this little session I brought it back take it apart, clean it and put it away. I took the valve out and cleaned it. I didn't remove the on/off assembly or back half of the valve. I did though pull my power tube tip off for no real reason just to look at it. I didnt remove the trigger frame body or sear. When I put it back together and aired it up it just went full auto then stopped with the bolt half way in the chamber and vented down the barrel. What could this be? I took it apart a second time and rechecked everything and when i gassed it back up same thing. The trigger felt like nothing. The sear never came forward to push the trigger forward. So the trigger just dangled there as it ripped in full auto. Like i said i never touched the on/off assembly, but the trigger was not resetting. Would it possibly do this with low air?

It is a retro valve with level 10 and standard on/off

Any help would be great.

Well the end off my on/off pin apparently sheered off.

Wow. I hadn't heard of that on a stock RT on/off.
