    But my problem is, I don't have any LX shims. I bought my marker with the LX installed but it didn't come with any extra parts. I'll check again but I'm pretty sure I'm shim-less. I do, however, have two ULT shims left over.
    My problem is still up.

    My gun fires perfectly well and is tuned pretty well. Although it could use some adjusting. I put a popsicle stick in the feed neck and it got chopped up but not very badly. Anyway, it's still leaking at 900+ PSI in the tank but below that it stops leaking; that's only because the tank is almost empty by then. :\

      Broken Main Spring

      Has anyone experienced the problem of Main Springs on a LVL10 breaking?

      Reason is, after playing a few games I suddenly noticed I was not able to shoot off a big string of paint and after a few shots all I would get is chuffing and bolt stick. So I took the valve out and noticed that the cut Main spring was busted. It's a good thing I had a back up set.
      Welcome to my mind. Be carefull were you step because the floor is kinda sllipery.

        Level 10 Shootdown?

        My e-mag and level 10 are set up well, but maybe too well. The gun chronos pretty good, in between the high 270's and 280's. My flatline is feeding a gang of pressure up around 900psi or so. my problem is that if I shoot too fast it gets drop-off. By too fast I dont mean to the far out reaches of the capabilities of an an emag or my halo b... but too fast for the valve(maybe around 12+ bps). With out level 10 this bastard was way faster. I swear the resistance from the bolt is tricking the level 10 to think theres a ball blocking the bolt. But if I change to the next carrier, its too big. Would the bolt spring or shims have anything to do with it?Any suggestions...

        thanks fella's

          Level 10 Rate of Fire

          I installed the Level 10, it's great, no chops but lost my automatic high rate of fire afforded by the RT. Am using the red spring, input air is 850psi. The trigger is 1/16 away from the pin until I shoot it a few times, then it moves up tight. It is locked in place with Locktite so it is not moving. What could be the problem? Velocity is at 290fps, no leaks unless I revert to stock spring.

          I want this thing rocking like the video painting the barn.

              Do you have the middle spring installed? I was messing with my RT tonight and I noticed it took a lot more air with the middle spring in and the bolt would lock up if I fired to fast. I put the small spring and it will rip now, but be a little harder on paint. I haven't had a chance to mess with my E-Mag a whole lot yet, but I bet it would be the same there.

                    I have the second smallest carrier, not a problem does not leak, and 2 spacers with the stock spring (i tried them all) and my bolt wont make a full cycle forward, it keeps regeristing is if theres a ball chop. Im running a Stock 68 Classic with a 16oz Co2. I have read quickly for other problems an seemed to find mabye a velocity adjustment would do the trick? Thanks in advance for the help!

                    EDIT - I just raised the velocity and it works fine, YAY

                      Help might have a big problem

                      Hey all supper newbee here once again.

                      Ok i put about 500 rounds of paint through my gun.
                      Took the tank off, cleaned it up like a good boy.
                      The next day i get it ready to play and i am testing it out to make sure it is top notch, I pull the triger and i shoot one ball then i hear a hisss sound then i pull the trigger again and it shoots fine for a bit then a hiss sound again so i stop. I take out the bolt and have a bit of a time getting it off. I notice on the bottom of the bolt the brass thingy is sticking out and i can see a white O ring. I go Ohh my what the @#$!. So i get a pair of pliers and a wash cloth so not to mark up the bolt and try to push it back in. It goes in fine and I put the gun back together again and i hook my tank up and pull the trigger and nothing at all. I went back through and reput the bolt back together and nothing at all .
                      HELP HELP HELP

                          i have a problem with my level 10 bolt. After i shoot about 500 shots through my mag air will start leaking out of my lv10. sometimes its bad and sometimes i can barely hear it. usually if i smack the side of my gun with my hand it will stop for a little while of just get quieter.
                          its starting to get really annoying during tournaments because it distracts me, so if anyone could help me i would really appriciate it. thanx

                            question

                            I have been reading through these posts about problems with the lvl. 10 and I am recieving mine in about 2 days. I was just wondering do you think I will encounter many problems trying to install it, is it normal. Or could i get just a perfectley normal one?

                              nah, it's really easy. But you gotta keep on taking it apart until it works. Also, follow the directions either inside the kit, or online at www.airgun.com those are perfect directions. save the fine tuning for later

                                My lvl 10 is on a drilled retro valve with the ULT and I'm getting crazy bolt stick where the bolt will not recock and go into the normal position. I have to remove the ball stop and stick my finger in the gun to push the bolt back. I've tried adding shims, and it gets to the point where it will not fire, I've oiled it with no improvement....
