Level 10?

Does the leak stop when you pull & hold the trigger?

[magman234]

yes, i have lvl 10 and i know what you mean by holding the trigger down...its not like that....it leaks constantly out the barrel and adjusting the velocity and rapid burst firing didnt help it either. i had 4400 psi i my tank and i have shot about 200 balls and its down to 1300.

How new is the level 10? How many cases have you shot through it?

if its leaking down the barrel, make sure you have the delrin spacer in the bottom of the PT, then the spacer with the o-ring side facing down, and make sure that your carrier fits the bolt right and that the o-ring is lubricated with oil and is not cracked, torn, or damaged in any way



also, make sure that you are using the LX powertube tip

just asking

i also have a minimag with level 10 upgrade,dye veritcal reg, everything else is stock, i have a slight problem of leaking on the velocity adjuster. i can only shoot 260 turning it up would cause to leak, i also notice that theres a metal washer in the velocity adjuster rather than an plastic o-ring ...

First thing I would do it ditch the reg. Its useless on your classic valve. You might have a really horrible paint-barrel match with tons of porting. More likely you have a bad reg seat, that metal washer is doing somthing, or your spring pack or reg piston has gone bad.
