    New to automags, gun leaks

    Hi everyone I have an Automag RT Pro, but when I screw in my tank, I can hear gas leaking out of the vertical feed. As i said im very new to Automags (1 week) and this is the first time I had a chance to shoot it. I took apart the gun and checked the o-rings, they seem alright. But some of the o-rings arent circular, but flat. Is that normal? Can anyone help me? I have a game tomorrow to go to so I need help fast.

      Ummm what if I don't have any extra o-rings? It's definatly the valve that leaks.

          Try you level 10

          Also an other thing to check is if you have a level 10 that the right brass spacer and the o-ring in the spacer is still good.

            you most likely need to go to a one size smaller LX carrier.

            Also soaking orings in ATF does wonders sometimes.

              yep i got a automag RT as well and i have exactly the same problem as you do. Level 10 was just installed recently by the previous owner of the gun. I also had leaking from the asa but a little plumbers tape solved the leaking out of the screw. Now my leaking is coming from the vertical feed as well. I am going to try the above suggestions tonight and see if they work for me.


              (scruffy579) - well it turned out my gun was leaking because the level 10 was missing some shims a good friend at work helped me out and its working great now :)
              Thanks.
