    AGH :( Took valve out... put back in... machine gun

    I took my valve out for the first time 5 minutes ago (those who dont know I just got my mag) and the on/off valve fell out. Without relayl thinking about it I just put it back in, and I oiled the two holes. I put gas in it, and it started machine gunning (and since it was under my covers, it sounds like a helicoptor)

    I think I put in the on/off wrong, and im pretty sure now, especially since that IT WONT COME OUT does anyone have a trick or SOMETHING to get this thing out? all I see when I look at it is a raised metal circle, with a white oring, and a silver dot in the middle lower than the oring

    Please help
    thanks

    You put it in upside down? So there is no wedge in it to get it out easily? Well. Just get some plyers. Pull hard. Try not to scratch it up. I did that once too. When you put it back together right make sure the 2 orings on the bottom of it are in snug and in place. Silver dot is on/off pin. Should be a lil spacer type thing between orings and the bigger thing.

      If you're scared to use the plyers, what you could do is gas it up with the valve outside of the gun. However, be very careful doing so because the on/off can go flying. Yout don't need that much pressure to get it out. Don't gas it up all the way. Make sure the bolt is off also. Also make sure to keep the on/off pointing down towards a pillow or something soft. Like i said, be very cautious about doing so because to much air will shoot certain pieces flying.

        yes... i did the same thing, just make sure you screw it in verry verry slowly, so only a small amount of air gets in. keep your hand over the on/ off so it falls into your hand, and you dont loose anything.

          thanks for the advice guys, the on off had a ledge cut into it so pliers wouldnt work I eventually ended up carefully wacking the thing against a soft wooden dresser and it eventually came out, the reason it was so flush because it was upside down... and the brass piece wasnt there,

          thanks

            yeah, that would do it. i did that a few times before, but it didnt go automatic, thats odd.

                lol!! Who here HASN'T dropped their on/off valve before and put it in upside down? I did that once-I had to watch the video forever 'till I figured that one out! I know what happened with the maching gun thing too-mine fell out once in the woods, and I left out one of the orings when I put it back in, and it started going crazy on me! It was just that one tiny white o ring! Funny-there should be a poll to see how many people here have put their valve in upside down before!

                  I haven't. I have a retro/emag valve. You CAN'T put it in upside down.
