    It wont feed!

    Every time I play with my mag i have this problem: I pull the trigger and and no balls fire! I have a 12 volt rev. I pull the trigger and the ball that i have to push into the chamber fires, but the next doesnt? Im not shortstroking. The balls are like disapearing but im not chopping. I guess I have a feed problem. Will my warp feed solve this? And If i didnt want to use my warp, how could i fix this?

    Your feeding problem sounds like it could be one of three things. The first of these reasons is that your barrel may not be in correctly. A second source of this problem could come fromyour paint being swelled up to the point where it doesn't fit in the feed tube correctly. Another reason could be that your powerfeed plug is the wrong size. Any of these three factors could have caused your problem.
    The first thing to check would be your barrel, make sure that your barrel is fully rotated, so that the balls can fall in properly. If the barrel is not rotated enough, wheather due to improper machining, getting stuck, or simply not being turend enough, balls would not be able to feed properly. Also make sure that the breech in your barrel is big enough for a ball to fall through. If the barrel is in all the way, and the paint won't fall in it could be one of two things.
    Make sure that the paint isn't swelled up to enought that it won't fit. Take off your hopper, and drop balls in the elbow. Take note of at what point are they getting stuck. If they are getting stuck in the elbow, then remove the elbow, and drop them down the feed tube. If they still get stuck in the feed tube your paint is swelled up. If they don't you may have a defective elbow. If they get stuck in the powerfeed right before entering the barrel, it could be your powerfeed plug.
    Make sure that your powerfeed plug is not in too far, as to not allow for balls to properly drop into the breech. If it is in too far, and you have the parabloic feed plug, then back it out a little. If it is in too far and you do not have the parabloic feed plug, then call AGD, register your gun and they will send you one. You can tell if you have the parabloic feed plug because of the two set screws on it.
    One of these three methods should fix your problem. Unless of course you are actually shooting, not hitting anything close, and are unable to see the ball. Try going up close to something where you know you cannot miss, and shooting. I hope that this helps.

        Also make sure the feed plug is in all the way. Be sure it isn't twisted to either side.
