    serious leak

    my first mistake was buying my new mag from the internet. the guy said he spent lots of money on new internalys and had a professional check done on it. well - i get my gun (i gave up making out to answere the door for the nice man in brown) and tore into my new gun. i strapped on the air ready to feel the rush of my most complicated gun ever. first thing that happens... SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS... the only way i could stop the hissing was to hold down the trigger. i thought that was odd that the gun would release gas when the trigger was not held down - and would shot spueing gas when the trigger was held down. the leak is strong through the barrel and weaker coming out of the back on the reg - at the same time. the gun cannot shoot a paintball. i broke 3 out of 3 balls i put into it. the trigger can be fired unlimited amout of times with the same problem. you can hear the bolt clap followed by more hissing. if you have any ideas - please post - email at [email protected] - or IM me at Sanmarcos3. this is a distress call. sos. thanks in advance - or atleast feighning interest.

      there were a lot of o-rings and i didn't see any broken. i followed online airgun diagrams and disassembled everything. i found that maybe a couple peices from the power tube may be missing. i only found an o-ring around the center of the bolt. i assume that these parts play an important role in shooting a gun (stopping leaks). am i right? and where can i buy these parts. my local place doesn't have automag parts. thanks dudes

        if your talking about the bumper that is under the bolt,and inbetween the valve+bolt,that wont cause a leak,all that does is stop the bolt from slamming into the valve and chipping it up..

          then is it safe to say that those peices are not causing my problem and maybe i should blame the valve?

            If you took the bolt out and only found an oring in there, you're missing a spacer. They can be had by buying a kit from the AGD store.



            The leak out the back can be stopped by turning down the velocity. (if that doesn't solve it, you need to replace the reg piston, also available on the AGD Store.)
