this as nothing to do with the last post, but I was wondering if anyone out there has some extra shims,I "misplaced" mine and can't find them. Thanks.

sounds to me like you're using CO2 is that correct? if it is you're getting liquid in the valve and the o-rings are freezing up and therefore cant seal. if you pull the trigger and it get a "pfft pfft pfft" sound and you have to pull the trigger again to get the bolt to reset that's whats going on. if not you're going to have to be more specific with your problem so we can help you.

im using aa 68 cubic inch 3000 psi tank. i cant use CO2 because of my bottomline. the problem is that when i shoot it'll sound like this: bam-pfft-bam-pfft

nevermind my problem. i brought it in to a shop, all it needed was a lot of oil. i feel stupid

man... i had my lvl 10 working today! i read like 3 pages of this and theres way too many to go through,

well heres the problem
-my mag was working fine for 200 shots w/ a 2.0 carrier and 2 shims
-than later after degassing it and coming back several hours later to shove my finger in a play around w/ it starts leaking, so i switch carriers till it stops, than it wont shoot at all...

whats the problem?!

[Anonymous Proud Mag Owner]

first of all...how bad was the leak and also what exactly do you mean by won't shoot?

[hAppy]

hmm new problem
i broke in my oring AGAIn
with a size 2 carrier and 2 shims
well it worked fine than it started leaking

so i switched to a 1.5 carrier and it wouldnt shoot
no matter how much i turned up the velocity...

than i switched back to the 2 it leaked still, it would stop leaking when i hold on the trigger whats the problem?

here is the answer to my earlier problem. My bolt would only go halfway out and then come back in like i was doing the squigee test, but with no sguigee. I found out the bolt would not slide in the barrel when the gun was apart. So i went to the small spring and put a little oil on the inside of the barrel. shot it for two weekends and broke in the barrel/bolt so they worked good together. Now i went back to the medium spring and it works great. just needed to be broken in i guess.

I want to thank everyone for all of their help. i have been playing for two weeks now and had no problems. It literally took me about two weeks to get the level 10 dialed in correctly, but now (knock on wood) i think i've got it down. Thanks. AGD is the best about helping out their customers....

gamarada717 - try going to a bigger carrier, also - what's your input pressure

sorry that I haven't responded in so long, I've been caught up with the end of school and stuff. I'm using a preset PE 68/4500 tank. I'm not sure, but I think the input pressure is like 850. (remember, not sure) When IO went to a larger carrier it would leak down the barrel. I've heard from some people that if I just went to a larger carrier and let it sit for a couple days that it would fix it, is this true?

I just got my X-VALVE today. I gas it up and it won't shoot. The sear isn't coming forward. Is this the vavle or lvl 10 bolt causing this? I would really appreciate a reply soon.

[xrancid_milkx]

Ok update, after nearly crying myself into depression, I decided to tinker with a few more things. I turned the velcotiy WAY up (more than you would think you should), then tried to fire. This time the sear came out, but didn't fire. Tried a couple different shims and carrier things and it FIRED! YES!

Ok now after a while of trying a few variations I think I got it just about down. I'm using the 2 ringed carrier, no dot and 3 shims and the shortest spring. It seems to fire fine but when I try the lvl 10 out on my squeege it recocks fine but seems to stick here and ther (Actually most of the time). Out of about 20 dry fires, only 2 seemed to worked perfectly. How can I fix this?

Hey, I've had my LX in my Emag for almost a year now. The gun fires fine, but the LX takes forever to reset correctly if a ball is pinched.

[xrancid_milkx]

Now it firing and its not leaking, but it deffinitly would chop a ball. Anyway to fix that?

rancid: try a bigger spring
