    Rubber piece in LVL 10 coming off

    Has anyone else had this happen to them?

    I installed my lvl 10, had it humming beautifully for half a day while the team were sorting out their markers. Easy, all well and good. Sorted a small leak it had on Monday, and the rubber Y bit on the end of the bolt had come off into my barrel sock. Could dry-firing have caused this? It's only had about a case of paint through it, and dry firing whhile checking for leaks.


    Help!!!

    The foamie isn't really necessary, your gun will work fine without it.

      Happens all the time whether dry firing or with paint. You don't really need it though but can be glued on with super glue. Others recommend other type of glue but can't really remember what kinds.

        Just scrape the remains off of the face of the bolt,
        and use a Gel type Super Glue.
        Do This With The Bolt "OFF Of The Valve", this may
        sound stupid but I know someone who glued his bolt
        to his powertube tip
        It took quite a bit of time, a new bolt and powertube
        tip to fix it
        Like the rest of the guy's said the foamie isnt really
        neccesary with level 10

          Foamie's dont do much but the lx does work better with them cause of ballstack purposes, not impact.

            Thanks guys, glued it back on today before training and not a problem. If anyone's interested, have a little look at billspaintball.com and see what a couple of people have said over here about the lvl 10. mmmmmm..... One person said some electros would have trouble keeping up with my mag!! hahaha dunno about that but...

            p.s. sorry Army. *considers self suitably chastised*
