    X-Mag ball detents...

    Alright, I wasn't messing with it, so it
    s not my fault.

    I was showing off my X-Mag (as I tend to do) and someone unscrewed the ball detent from my Vert Module. Now, when I scre it back down to a decent tightness, the black O-ring 'bulges' out sticking out of the space it was intended. I can screw it down to the point just before it bulged, but this does not seem tight enough.

    I'll attach a crude drawing to illustrate my point. Now, this cannot be normal, but I've tried everything I can think of...

    Any suggestions/tips are greatly appreciated.

    Thanks ~ Dave

    As long as the ball (on the detent) sticks out into the breech enough to retain paintballs, it's in enough. Try some good 'ol Loc-Tite to retain the ball detent more positively. You shouldn't need to squish the O-ring for it to be set properly.
