frozen gun. HELP

[northface421]

the marker started leaking air while i was playing this past saturday.. i didnt mess with it, just grabbed the tippmann carbine i carry as a back up.. i tried to use the gun today and it will fill the marker with air and no leaks, but it won't set the trigger.. no idea what to do with the gun. frustrated as hell since ive only used it twice

This is...an automag? Details please.

[northface421]

not sure the exact model.. but gun is 68 automag. says a.i.r. valve under that. wooden grips, expansion chamber.. can email pics.. no idea how to put them on here.

Hmm...where's it leaking?

[northface421]

its not leaking anymore.. it started too at first when i was playing.. i just played with another gun and then today i tried to use it, and the air didnt leak at all.. it acts like it takes it, but the trigger won't work.. it wont go into firing mode

[northface421]

the gun is a mini mag im pretty sure.. i took it apart and the little pin that pushes down against the trigger assembly seems to be stuck inside the bolt..

You have a Classic Automag.

When was the last time it was oiled?you will also benefit greatly from watching the Tom Kaye maintenance videos on YouTube.

just found the manual.. its a minimag.. the on/off pin is stuck inside.. any ideas how to fix? gun was oiled before playing.. only used it once in 5 years

[Ando]

Well. First thing first, oil it...then adj your velocity up a little more.

The on/off pin will sometimes protrude out the bottom of the body which keeps the valve from coming out. Just pull the trigger and it should free the valve.

If your talking about the pin getting stuck inside the on/off cavity after you pull the on/off housing out, just get some pliers and removed it. It's just caught on the inner top on/off oring.

*thanks for the help*

Ando.. took the gun apart and took the on/off assembly out. pulled the pin free, oiled the marker, and put the gun back together.. hooked up the air and the trigger actually free'd up and would spring back forward.. BUt the gun didn't cycle any shots.. tank is 1/2 full. i wish i knew more, really appreciate the help. any other ideas?
