    Valve PROBLEMS??!!?!?!?

    I was at airball today and i went to gas up my mini mag and air was leaking out of the back of the valve, thru the whole where the allen wrench is put the adjust the velocity. we dismantled the gun a few times and checked ALLLL the O-rings and everything seemed to look ok..and yet it still leaked out the back..i am absolutly stumped on what the problem is. HELP ME IM HAVING AUTOCOCKER FLASH BACKS!!!! help help help help!!

    lucky gibby was there the let me use is back up mag, Thanks a million gibby,that thing shot like a dream i owe you one bro.

      Maybe you backed out your velocity nut too far. It starts leaking after 400 or so. Just try tightening it a lot and then slowly backing it out until it leaks. If it's not that then I don't know.

          It could be your reg. piston O-ring!!! Or the reg. seat seal!!!

                  Well that should be the blowoff valve that is integrated into the mag's valve. When you put the velocity on too high it automatically blows air out of the back. It means your velocity is too high, tru turning it down. Watch the video and read the manual, if all else fails call AGD.

                      Normally this would be your velocity too high.
                      Test for this by backing the velocity nut out some, if it is too high it will leak.
                      Reg piston o-ring
                      It could be this, but you say you already checked all the rings. If you are new to mags it could be easy to miss though. If you remove the velocity nut, under there is the spring pack, take that out. Now, below the spring pack is the reg piston. It is kind of hard to get out, if you bang the valve gently on something, it should come out far enough that you can grab it and pull it out. Check the o-ring on that.
                      If its not that, then its most likely your reg seat.
                      If none of those are the problem, then you probably have a bad reg piston or spring pack.
                      Also, if you put alot of pressure into the valve like 3000+, there is a safty valve kinda like a burst disk that will blow out. To fix that it needs to be sent to AGD. If you haven't put that much pressure into the gun though, don't worry about it.

                          Yeah, go here if you don't know where to go...

                          That should help.

                          I was just reading something on AGD's site and they say if it's shooting normally (like 280 FPS), and still leaks out the back, replace the Reg Piston immediately. Straight from there Exploded Parts .pdf.
