Classic Automag 68 shootdown

[emag123421]

How can I stop the shootdown on my classic automag 68?

Me too! I have LX bolt, Intelliframe, Classic valve, plastic nubbin and Flatline set to 800. Shoots fine but sometimes it will sound weak. Then it either double feeds or a ball gets stuck inside the barrel and there is a big mess. Oh, and sometimes a ball just drops. I'm not short stroking either.

I had the same problem a while ago. But after much stuffin around on the gun I found out that it was my air america reg. I threw it in the bin & bought a maxflo & it cranks now No shootdown at all at 15bps with classic valve, lvl10 & booyaah set on 15. Thats fast enough 4 me!

my tanks aren't the problems I don't think

Well.....

If your shooting with CO2, junk it and get N2 if you have the money... even a preset 4500 Crossfire is a sweet tank to have (ranges from $150-200).

In any case... try a couple o things;
-Try switching to a different tank and see if you still have problems.
-make sure the velocity is set high enough
-make sure the input pressure is high enough (even though u said it was ok, sometimes guages are dirty liars, lol - unreliable at times if busted and u don't know it)

I would suggest doing a good clean/oil job on your valve and replace all the o-rings. If you are running micro-line on your gun junk it. You need at least Macro-line or you will get shoot down. Dont use an inline regulator, It will only cause airflow restriction, Your A.I.R valve is a great reg, and if your running N2 or HPA the your allready double regulated(tank reg and AIR valve). Lastly dont wast money on aftermarket on/offs or valve backs they dont help and in most cases cause shoot down. My classic valve will shoot 14-16bps with minor shoot down(10-15 fps) with an AutoResponce trigger frame. Good Luck
