Fitting an intelliframe

[Systemx]

there are no issues in having the safety. you will need to remove the trigger though which can be a pain in aluminum frames (you need to press out / tap out the trigger pin). take whatever you know about autocockers and set it aside, as it has no use with automags lol. also, those barrel o-rings are toast man...get some new ones on there, and a new plastic nubbin. the barrel is from check it, if you were wondering.

Ok cool, lol I'll forget my WGP roots then... I figured that the o rings need changing on that barrel and it has a metal type detent. Quick question are those check it barrels any good? And would you happen to know what bore are they are?

Ok I see they are cheap enough, aside from the obvious reasons is there any other benefit to refitting a saftey? I only ask this because back in the day we always used to remove them from our cockers that had slide frames due to it giving a smoother trigger pull.

Safety is only a safety on a mag. It doesn't affect the actual trigger pull at all. It does give you a position from which to adjust the trigger rod.

try it out and see. bores for twistlock barrels are typically around .691, from what i've measured. so overbored, but no big deal. automags fire from an open bolt instead of a closed bolt like on an autococker, so the nubbin will keep the ball in place. you don't have to worry so much about it. one option you can do, though, is to get a docs automag to autococker adapter. that way you can make use of your autococker barrels. not necessary, but just an idea...

Keep the wire detent handy until you are sure the plastic nubbins will work for you. Some of the grooves in the aftermarket barrels don't actually match the layout of the plastic nubbins (AGD spec), and the barrel can be too tight of a fit to let the plastic nubbin hang out of the groove. When all of the nubbins were wire, the groove side-shape didn't really matter, so some barrels just had "similar" grooves. I almost threw away my wire detents, but I have barrels that need them.

Ok so I got my parts in the mail today from Tuna (thanks again) I have followed the LV10 set up guide and I am using the carrier with 2 lines on it and the gold (short) spring. The marker does not leak down the barrel or otherwise and it does shoot and cycle more quickly than it did previously, however when I try to rapid fire it still 'chuffs' occasionally. It's clearly still not right any ideas anyone?

Does the bolt return or does it stick?

Chuff could also be just that your trigger discipline is failing and you don't completely pull or release the trigger. Or it could be the lvl 10 preventing chop.

Ok it's being dry fired but if I was a betting man it sounds like the bolt is still sticking? Do I need to try a different carrier? If so which one?
I took a video of it shooting take a look

If it sticks then the the bolt won't return. I'd leave the carrier that you are using for now (it's anyway the largest you have). Try it first with paint/reballs and see what it does.

It could also be that your field strip screw is little loose and allows some movement on the valve which then misaligns with the body causing stick. One indication of this is if the bolt unsticks when you push from the back of the valve.

Ok the bolt is returning as it shoots when you pull the trigger again, I have adjusted the trigger rod leaving a credit cards width between it and the trigger. If that is the largest carrier it's strange as when I used the others earlier on they leaked? I'll put some paint through it and see what happens.

[Laku]

2 lines is 2.0 carrier, And I think that's the largest you ordered from Tuna? From largest to smallest: Dot and line is 1.5, Line is 1.0, dot is 0.5 and nothing is 0.

Ok thanks for the info on the carriers it's good to know, did you have a chance to look at the video?

Hah, totally missed it when I first read this from my mobile. But that definitely looks like you're not letting the trigger forward enough, it'll do chuffs when you do that.

Ok I'll work on it but the trigger just feels a bit clunky, I just figured that the Mag would shoot quicker than it does especially with the inteli frame? I take it all appears ok with the Mag apart from that? Also I cannot seem to get the reactive trigger working? The output pressure of my tank is 850psi which should be enough pressure?

[Laku]

It can shoot very fast if your fingers can keep up. Yeah, everything looks ok as far as I can tell from the video.

RT effect will come in time (at least for most of them it does) as the o-rings break in. Of course this also depends of the flow rate of your tank regulator and its output pressure (should be at least 800 psi ).

Ok cool, I'll leave it as it is and persevere with it and try to get used to the trigger as it is quite unlike any other marker I own, I do have an amourgeddon air system kicking around with an SCI tank that needs a hydro test as I hear these are good for supplying 900-1000 psi to the valve, in case I can't get the R/T effect with my existing tank.
