    HELP: For anyone with a Micromag body...

    I just picked up a micromag body and need help with assembly. Everything seems to go together fine, but I am having trouble keeping the trigger assembly pin (not sure if this is the name, its the pin the holds the linkage together that connects the valve to the trigger assembly) in the body. Normally, this pin is held in place between the rail and the body, but due to the micromag's single body/rail combo, I am not sure what is needed to keep this thing from falling out the side. What should I do?

    is it the screw that connects the trigger frame to the rail/valve? or the pin that holds the sear in the rail?....or the screw that holds the front of the trigger frame to the rail? I think i know whats up, just need some more info....

      he said it connects the valve to the trigger assembly, so I would assume it's the quick strip screw. Have you had problems with it falling out? When I first got my micromag, I used an allen wrench to tighten it a lot, but after I had it a while I found that it won't fall out. Just make a habit out of giving it a little twist to make sure it's tight after every game (or before). Is that what you're talking about?

        The name is the sear pin, and Im guessing its an older PF Micro body.
        Originaly the Benchmark frame was shaped to hold it in place, but with an intellyframe you have to either drill and tap for a small setscrew to hold it in place or fing a newer threaded sear pin and tap the body for it.

        PM me if you need more Help or info, since i have had that issue before.

          it's the older style power feed body and yes, I am using an intelliframe so that must be the issue. I am a novice with tinkering and guns, so who can I take my 'mag to and have the issue fixed? I am not opposed to paying for this as I want to it to be fixed quickly.

            Just put the pin in and put a small dab of silcone on the end.It doesn't take much to hold it in place.

            That's the simplest fix.

              I had a Micro that would do the same thing.
              Remove the pin and squeeze one end just a little in a vise to barely, barely flatten one end. When you put the pin back in, install it with the unflattened end first so that the flattened end just barely has to be pushed into the rail.

              You might have to barely hit it with a very light hammer and a 1/8" punch.
