    Help... mag won't fire!

    I just bought a new Tac one and i'm running a Smart Parts micro-max tank and reg. I just finished hooking up the air system to it and dry fired it a few times. It worked fine when I dry fired it with the exception of once where the trigger stuck in the back position for a sec. I was with my dealer at the time when it happened and he said it was normal. When I went to the field to get it chronoed it fired one and the trigger locked in the back position. What in the world could be the cause. I just bought the gun (new), and it has been fired only one while being chronoed.

          I would start with that also.

            I was under the impression the micro max flow had a much lower psi rating 800 tops, with the lvl 10 I think you may be starving your marker.

              The micro is a 850 psi preset.

                i would go and take the Valve out remove the ON/Off Oil the hell out of it. Kinda sounds like your tuning is maybe off too. But Mags love Oil....lol

                  You are getting bolt stick. Remove all the powertube shims. Go to the next larger carrier using the same white oring you are using now.

                  It could also be a ULT problem if one of those is installed. Is there a ULT?
                  Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

                    Remove the valve. Can you slide the bolt on the powertuber easily? If not, remove oring, place oring in the next carrier larger.
