Brand new (less than one day old) 68 Automag

[Fullride311]

Hey, I'm new here. Just got the automag TKO from actionvillage.com. It's not the same as pictured on there, I think it looks better. I was watching the video about it (classic newbie, I know.) to figure out how to get the barrel in. Now it's in, but it's incredibly hard to get off. I can't get it off at all. It isn't a problem now, but Im gonna want to clean it. So could I have a little help? I hope I provided enough info.

Chances are the orings have come out of their grooves. You can try pulling real hard and if that doesn't work, you can loosen the front frame screw (the one right in front of the trigger) and it should come out. Put a little bit of autolube on your finger and rub it on the two barrel orings and it shouldn't happen again.

Congrats on the purchase, and welcome to AO.

thank's a lot. It worked. #1, that was a wicked hard screw to undo and #2 you just beat the record for quickest response. :-p

Stick around long enough & you'll see some a LOT quicker than that

i think its an unspoken competition.

haha sweet. Yeah, I get to play my first game with it on sunday. Which means I'll be spending all night and tomorrow getting use to it and filling tanks, buying paint, etc. It's gonna be pretty sweet, I hope.

That GZ part is a typo, he just meant to write emags.

If it still bothers you you can take off the trigger frame and you see the brass part that is sticking out twords the front of the rail? There is a set screw in there that controls the barrel thingy. Screw it out, and its easier to put in barrels. Screw it in and its wicked hard to get them in/out!
