classic mag pinching

[Grassroots]

i recently baught a classic mag, all stock, from mossman, but it did come with a warp feed and a warp feed body. when i went to one of the fields near me i put everything on the gun, got my mask, went to chrono, and when i went to shoot, all it did was dryfire. the guy there said that i was pinching and the warp wasnt feeding right. so i left, got a new battery. I got it working but it still kept pinching, either during a game or during the chrono. sometimes during the games it would start feeding great and i was ripping. but then all of a sudden, i had to oush the ball into the chamber, which almost got me hit several times. any of you know what to change on it for it to stop pinching??

yes, i know this is a stupid question, but ive had this gun for 2 days and i dont know everything about it yet.

first of all i'd say, as anyone would, get a level 10. but if you can't afford one just shoot slower and make sure your not short stroking, in other words make sure your pulling the trigger all the way back and then release it all the way forward, since you sayed you were able to at times ripp on it i'd say your probably short stroking so just try to shoot slower and watch to make sure your moving your finger far enough forward and backward. btw what does "oush the ball" mean? if your sticking your finger into the breech, then stop, it won't feel good when that bolt hits your finger.

I can't be sure without actually seeing a picture of the marker, but from your description it sounds like the stack of balls inside the warp's feed tube is what's getting pinched. If the mag is a powerfeed mag, then the powerfeed plug might need replacement... particularly if it is not one of the newer parabolic feed plugs. See this thread for some information on how to tell what kind of plug you have:

In addition, check out this thread for all sorts of information about the warp feed, in particular ES13Raven's post at the end of page 3 of that thread (unless, of course, you've already read it):

Hope that helps a bit,
