    newbie mag question

    i took my mag apart oiled(i used a 3and1 oil) the o-rings ect..and put it back together when i shot it it shot fullauto(its wasnt befor i oiled it) .. then i ran out of air. Is it normal for mags to shoot fullauto when running out of air or did i mess something up oiling it?

    i'd go get my hpa tank filled up but my local pb store isnt open on mondays

      Do not use 3 in 1 oil. It is petroleum based oil. it will (and probably did) ruin all the O-rings in the gun. Get some paintball-specific oil (I like Gold Cup Oil)

      I suggest you take some time, and download the instruction manuals from the AGD website. read through them. there's a lot of valuable info that you need to know about your Mag...you might want to order a repair kit (with all the O rings) while you're at it.

          Did you put the sear back in? Did you have any left over parts at all?

          BTW - Where do you live? My shop isn't open on Mondays either...

              hmm

              befor i oiled my mag i was reading up on oils and http://www.paintballtimes.com/oil.htm said " A typical 3-in-1 oil will work fine " is the 3in1 oil really that bad for my gun?

                      Hmm, interesting article, Sami Khan, the author of that diatribe, also speaks of the use of K-Y Jelly as a paintball lubricant. I wonder what that boy does in his spare time!

                          I don't think 3 in 1 oil is the best oil to use for a paintball gun. It tends to thicken as the temprature drops (especially if you are using CO2), which is never a good thing.
