rt/pro to x-valve?

[questionful]

lol that is too high. I have no idea why it didn't work before, maybe your tank was low, or something like that. Do you have a male reg?

[winchums]

No, I am thinking of getting a female from Plamers.

Don't install an additional regulator. There are 2 already, one in the tank and one in the mag valve.

Your problem is most likely a worn sear.

Do you have any shims in the on/off? More shims makes more bounce in an RT on/off. If they go in stock without shims, they have less bounce than with shims. New seals and lube probably shook it all loose. Did you try the on/off that came with the x-valve?

1200 psi puts you in big bounce territory, but you should be able to either pop the trigger light enough or hold it down hard enough for semi-auto.

He's not getting a reg to make it more consistent, he needs to take the pressure down. Another reg won't do anything bad.

Thanks for all the replies, but I am mag stupid, and I think I'll send it in for repair.

No need for a third reg. Each one causes a restriction. You need at least 200 psi between regulators to maintain consistentcy and recharge rate.

The problem is the 1200 psi output from the tank. This should be fixed rather than adding a line resptriction. Remove a shim or two from the tank regulator to lower the output pressure and bring it down to 850psi where it should be. The gun should be set up to use any standard bottle.

dude, just take the silver part off the tank once it's empty, the part that screws into the gun, remove the shims and save your self the money

Well he would have well over 200psi between, though adjusting the tank is a much better option. I just don't know much about tank regs, so I didn't know if his was adjustable.

[winchums]

My tank is not adjustable, and I tried to put a regulator on it. There was no change it either shot full auto, or shot once then vented.

[questionful]

What was the reg's output? What do you mean "vented"? What happens on the third shot?

[winchums]

Actually my gauge broke and know one had a replacement ( poor paintball stores in Helena, MT). I started all the way off and slowly worked up until it shot then vented out the barrel. If I turned it up to high it would shoot full auto.

[winchums]

Thanks for all the help. It turned out to be my sear and/or on/off pin. I replaced them both and now it works great.
Thanks again
