    Degassing an e-mag???

    Setup:
    Micro E-mag
    LVL 10
    E-mag valve
    Macroline to SS AGD disconnect to max flo
    Max flo 4500 reg w/ on/off

    So when I stop shooting for the day or moment and want to totally degass the gun... I turn my tank reg on/off to off. I can then shoot in e-mode or manual of course until the gun does not have enough pressure to fire again. This always seems to leave about 400 psi charged in the hose and valve, I am guessing due to the LVL 10. This causes a very loud pop when using the SS disconnect. Does anyone have a solution for this? I think I am doing this all right, or am I going to have 400 no matter what?
    if you need a pic of my setup, pm me I can email it...I don't think attachments are working!

      No, thats about as good as you'll get without going out and spending $50 on a ProConnect.

          mmm... idea...

          Hold the trigger back in manual when you're turning off your tank. It should greatly reduce the amount of pressure in the system (I think?)

              We all get that (even without level 10). I think your pretty much doomed to the 400PSI still in there, just pull the quick disconnect. Ever a screw in tank will release the pressure when taken off...

                  slide checks are another option.
                  anyone who tells you there are no such things as stupid questions is lying to you so they can laugh at your questions.
