Ok, I will try to explain this to the best of my abilities...
I have a standard mag valve/rail/sear combo mounted into a rifle stock. It is all well and good except that I want to pull the sear back instead of push it back like a stock mag frame, in my mind this should pretty much be the same concept but when I try it out the following happens.
Oops.. before the steps, the valve works great in a stock mag trigger frame (got that out of the way now)
1. It airs up fine, no leaks, bolt is locked back with the sear
2. I pull the camshackle attached to the sear (basically the same motion as pulling the trigger on a stock mag frame)
3. It fires then just dumps air through the valve.
I can get it to stop dumping air by pulling back on the camshackle, which pushes the on/off up. This is pretty tentative though since as the pressure builds in the valve it gets harder to hold. When I let go it just dumps air again. I try to push on the camshackle to try to get the sear to grab the bolt but this does not seem to work either.
Any ideas?? I figured this would be a pretty easy part, but as D-day approaches I am rushing to get this part troubleshooted. Thanks guys!
