    Its the stainless steel part between my thumb and finger that the bolt slides on. That unscrews from the main body of the valve. That is where your leak is coming from.

        I highly doubt there is a leak where the stainless front screws onto the aluminum back. That is a very rare leak. Most leaks are out the front of the powertube. You can verify this by listening down the barrel or feedneck.

        If you are getting the leak with no shims and the smallest carrier size, change the carrier oring even if it looks good. If it still leaks, check your sear for wear. Make sure your rail bushing is in place.
        Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

          That's where my leak was and he described his exactly like mine. He replaced carriers and carrier o-rings but no improvement. Put your finger down the feedneck and push back on the bolt. If the leak doesn't change or stop, most likely it isn't a carrier leak. A leak from between the stainless front and aluminum back may be rare but it does happen.

              The lack of a rail bushing will cause all sorts of problems just like you are experiencing.

                    Get some liquid high pressure sealer or some teflon tape and redo the joint.


                    I wouldn't take the front of the valve off just yet. Its not meant to come off. Make sure your rail bushing is in place first.

                          if its leaking from around the macro fitting take the fitting out put some teflon tape on it thread it back in reconnect your hose those should fix yr problem there. if its leaking from in between the two pieces of the valve youve got a bad/missing oring insde there somewhere

                            No, the bumper is the rubber washer that goes on the front of the valve. The bolt rests against it when the valve is ready to fire.

                            The rail bushing is a small spacer that fits inside the hole in the rail where the rear thumbscrew holds the valve in place.

                            Get some thread sealer (teflon tape or high pressure thread sealer) and fix the leaking fitting.

                                If its leaking from the macroline fitting, its leaking outside the valve. There is no place where a macroline fitting can leak into the valve.

                                Here is the rail bushing; http://store.airgun.com/index.cfm?fu...&categoryID=95
