Okay, I have a new to me Micromag that is leaking down the barrel. There is a sweetspot on the trigger that when I find it stops the leak. I have replaced the o-rings in the power tube but to no avail. Also the leak will temporarily go away if I press the bolt down a bit, but it always reappears when I touch the trigger.

Please help me, I upgraded to a 'mag from a spyder because of the solidity of the system and also this forum, where I knew i would be able to ask any questions and get the help I need.

it might be your powertube spacers.

Yes muirtach it sounds like you have too short of a power-tube spacer. Since you replaced the PT o-rings I take it you know what the spacer looks like. You can pick up a spacer kit for like 15$ from AGD.Did you get a manual with the gun? If so.. look on the last couple pages and you should see a troubleshooting flow-chart... This should help you when troubleshooting leaks.

Hey thanks guys. I was pretty sure that was the problem, but I just wanted a second opinion first
