    Short Stroke King?

    I wiped out my new automag i got and just about every round I had to unscrew the tank because I short stroked it or something to that effect... Even inbetween rounds when the saftey was on and I just didnt shoot it for like 10-15 minutes I would just not shoot...sometimes all i had to do was unscrew the tank a bit and it would start working again but most of the time i had to take my nitro off completly... I am new to mags so I was just wondering... Am I the short stroke King? or is something wrong I dont see?


    Here is my gun:



    Specs:
    RTP X-Valve with ULT
    V2 Chord body
    Wingless Roguerail
    Rogue ULE grip
    Y-Frame
    Dual Kila detents
    Alumagrip 45 panels
    A+ No-Rise clamping feedneck
    CP Razor drop
    DYE UL
    Equation Switch with three inserts
    Ano from XPB

    With ULT it is pretty easy to short stroke. But it should reset the bolt most of the time. Try adding a shim or two in the LX and see if that works.
    BTW, thats a very nice mag.

      This happened to me one time. This is what I did. Disclaimer: It may not be your problem.

      If you have to unscrew your tank, then you're screwing in the on on/off knob too far on your drop forward. The pin is in so far the oring on it is cutting off the air flow.

      Screw the on/off on your drop all they way in then back it out a quarter turn. Or adjust it until you can dry fire 100 shots with no problems.

        yeah def a sick gun, and if you short stroke your mag, you will get your bolt stuck. just one of the things that happens with mags. I would just follow the previous dudes instructions and just gas up and practce w/ it. Not that hard once you get it, but you gotta get it.

          Try loosening and tightening your field strip screw with an allen key while working the trigger. My Mag is very picky about using just the right torque. To tight, or to loose and it won't fire. It sounds like the same symptoms.
