    Tighten up your field strip screw a little with a allen key. I have a mag that does the same crap. Only way to get it to fire properly is tightening it up.

      What spring is installed on the lvl 10 bolt? Lvl 10's have 3 different length bolt springs. The red spring is the longest, the silver is medium, and the gold is a standard length spring. You may have one of the longer springs installed and that would cause the problem you are having. I only have one valve that will work with the longer springs.

        The silver spring is the longest and stiffest. The red spring is the middle spring. The gold is the short and lightest spring and will work in all situations.
        Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

          For the sake of helping you narrow down your issue. I had the exact same problem. I had a ULT lying around and installed it and it works fine, so I can only assume that the problem is On/Off related in some way.

            What is the output pressure of the tank regulator? It needs to be a high pressure regulator. When screwing on the bottle, hold the trigger in. This should get rid of the single shot when airing up. Then quickly release the trigger to set the orings. You should be using the short gold bolt spring when troubleshooting your problem. Make sure you are using the largest carrier that does not produce a leak when the gun is sitting in the ready position while aired up and the trigger forward. Don't use any powertube shims when testing carriers. A carrier that is too tight will not allow the bolt to cycle properly if at all, especially if the bolt spring is too stiff.
