I have a stock emag, not SFL or Extreme, and my safety has come out twice! i dont get it! is this some sort of flaw in design? had anybody else had problems with their safeties coming apart?
The first time i saw a safety come out on its own was when my brother was cleaning his emag. I saw the ball-bearing fall out, and we spent 15 minutes getting it back together. A few weeks later i was working on my emag and i noticed the safety ball-bearing was missing. I Used the spare emag magnets i had and put them on the ends of an allen wrench and 'swept' the floor, luckily i found it. Unfortunately, it happened again, and I cant find the ball-bearing... I vacumed all my floors and thoroughly checked all the bags, with no positive results. whats up with this? I never had any problems with my Minimag safety...this seems a bit weird. I havent used my emag since then, but i am worried that something could go wrong without a properly functioning safety. Does anybody have any suggestions/fixes? I really dont feel like calling AGD and asking for one, it's noe even worth the cost to mail it.
