    Mag Malfunction

    I recently purchased my first mag. Its a 68 with powerfeed, a level 7 (i think), and has a BooYaa "e-lcd" frame on it . . . i run HPA

    when i air the gun up it will fire once or twice, then stick . . . with the valve removed, while pulling the trigger and placing my finger over the back end of the sear pin (where it contacts the on/off), i can see/feel that the trigger will occasionally fail to release the sear pin

    my friend believes my solenoid is acting up . . . the gun hasn't been used in quite some time (bought used), so i'm sure it really needs a generous oiling everywhere possible . . .

    like I said, I'm a total nub when it comes to mags, let me know if i need to better explain anything . . . thanks for any help


    ***EDIT***
    after looking at more posts, I found a link specifying that the booyaa should not be fired while not under pressure . . . unfortunately I recieved no manual for the grip since I bought the marker used, and my nub *** got trigger happy "testing" the gun before I could afford my HPA tank. . . . so i'm pretty sure I fugged up the solenoid . . . what can I do to try to remedy my fugg up short of buying replacement parts?

    It may not have the proper on/off pin in there. I'm pretty sure they are supposed to be longer, but I know they are different than stock ones. I hope that dry firing won't mess the boo-yaah up because I sit around and click mine more w/ out air than w/!

        If you had another frame to try on the mag that would help in narrowing the problem down. That way you could tell if it was a valve or boo-yaah problem. I forgot to ask about the battery, is it a new one? Sometimes it's the simplest things that get over looked!

            Just because its a new battery doesn't mean its good. For an example, I don't buy batteries at Walmart anymore because I've encountered dead batteries from there on more than one occasion.
            Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.
