well i know theres no foamie or place for one so i guess its a L7. it leaks pretty bad out the bolt face after a few shots unless the trigger is held downComment

If its a level 7 bolt you need a power tube oring , if its a level 10 you need to go to a smaller carrier, or replace the oring in the carrier if you are using the smallest carrier.Comment

Hey everyone. Im the seller of said mag, and Im wondering what it is as well. Shot fine when it left, but obviously doesnt work now so Im wondering if I can just send an O-ring kit and thatll fix it or what?
Also, I do know that since the air cuts when you hold the trigger, that means that the On/Off is working properly.
Emo-I will PM you when we can figure out what it is. I have classes until 4.Comment

from what i've read, it could be the powertube o-ring but i just want to verify and need to get ahold of some o-rings for itComment

Also be sure to use oil.
Remove barrel.
3-5 drops of oil in the ASA.
20 shots.
Done.Comment

Use Autolube or a good air tool oil. Do NOT use Hoppe's 9!
Unrelated. Your leak was forward of the on/off, in the powertube. You need to spend 9:41 minutes watching the Tom Kaye troubleshooting video or else you will always be guessing as to what is wrong. Watch it. You'll understand your mag.Originally posted by emopunker2004

ok watched the video, pulled up the diagram for the classic valve. had 1 powertube o-ring that the guy i bought the on/off from threw in. Replaced the powertube o-ring. shot some air, no leaks, seems to run fineComment

If your looking for some excellent oil. Try out TriFlow (w/Teflon). I been running it for about 3-5 years now and love it.

I use it on everything actually. Best stuff ever.
It is expensive but the stuff is worth it.
