Automag Problems

[think]

Ok, well this is what is happening to me. When i shoot my mag, it will be fine if i just shoot semi, but if i go to shoot rather fast, all of the balls will drop within 20 yards or so, and it seems like there is not enough presure to have the balls shoot enough distance. I have enough nitro left in my tank (2400 psi). Any suggestions? thanks

Sounds like you may be starving the gun for air. What exactly is your setup? If you can tell us that we may be able to more specifically diagnose the problem.

what do you mean starving the gun for air? its just a classig mag, with regulator, new bolt, etc.. nothing to fancy.. I heard from another forum, that it may be my reg. piston ? this true?

External (Vertical) reg? Thats the problem. AGDs valves come with a built in reg, they make external regs useless.

[think]

well if it were useless, this wouldnt be the problem. right?

ill take the reg off tonight, shoot it and see if it is the issue or not, also replace all o-rings seals etc, and oil the gun up a little. i'll post later with results.

Useless wasn't the right word. Hindering is more like it. The valve is suited for high pressures so a reg making the input pressure low is just goin to starve the gun.
