    that gun sounds goofed up man. you should not have a leaking anything, and you certainly should not have to alter the stock on/off pin (nevermind the on/off top) to get it to work correctly.

      Well, AGD has dropped off the face of the earth with regards to returning the gun. If anyone has a way to contact them, I'm all ears. Phone and email do not gain any response.

      I certainly will not ever deal with them again.

            Hopefully he has a quick recovery!

            The gun is fixed. After machining the face of the ULT top, I replaced the on/off pin o-ring. The gun is working without leaks.

            I have learned A LOT about automags these past few weeks.

              Shouldn't have had to do anything like that to a new marker though. Just odd. Glad it's now fixed though.

                sounds like you got an out of spec part. it happens since AGD does not make any of their parts and even the best QC misses once in a while. glad you got it fixed.

                  huh, i wonder what the dimension of your ult top is now? one of my tops measured .452", while another measured .450".

                    I can measure it tonight. I took measurements as I machined it, but I don't remember. The overall length wasn't my target change, just the depth of that little o-ring pocket (both changed, of course). Now the o-ring just barely sticks over the top of the hole when installed, whereas before it was a few thousandths below the top surface of the ULT. With the availability of shims the overall length of the top shouldn't matter; I suspect that differences of up to 0.100" can be overcome by shimming.

                    EDIT: Top is 0.449".
