    Micromag farting

    When the trigger is kept pulled, the mag farts about twice/second. When the trigger isn't pulled, everything is normal and without leaks. The orings are new and oiled. The pin is on the right side. What am i not seeing?

    Pics to make the post more interesting.

    I changed the bigger on-off oring. It looked pretty old. It was still physically in good shape. I'll see tomorrow.

          The farting is a bit slower, but still present. Any clues?

            I would try replacing the teflon oring again (perhaps you got a bad one) then check your bolt spring and lastly if you have spacer kit laying around you might try the next size smaller spacer.

              New on/off pin (that one looks dinged) and new on/off teflon o-ring is all you need.

              This is referred to as the "lawn sprinkler" in the TK AGD video.

                The pin is mint. It looks dinged because it has grease on it.

                  As usual, you are right. Eventhough the top oring looked good and hasen't discolored, it need to be replaced.
