Brief air leak when letting off the trigger

[georgeyew]

Hey guys,

I have a minimag valve with a Level 7 bolt. I noticed today when I let go of the trigger, a small gush of air would leak out. Sometimes (I think), the gush of air would be enough to cause a second paintball to roll out of the barrel. Do you guys know what might be causing this?

You probably have either a bad powertube oring or your powertube spacer is a bit too long. As your sear wears, you will need to use a shorter powertube spacer to compensate.

Another option could be a bad top teflon oring. Usually, a bad oring there causes a sprinkler effect when you hold the trigger back after a shot, so that is probably not the issue in your case.

Thanks. I will check those when I get home later tonight.

Yup, it was the powertube spacer. Luckily I had a .220 spacer and it did the trick. Thanks athomas.
