    Uncocked and double feeding

    Hey Guys, I posted a couple weeks ago and I think that I'm getting pretty
    close to a dialed in rig. I'm running the carrier from the factory plus two shims
    and the red spring.

    It doesn't happen a lot but the marker will come un-cocked. To test, I kept
    my tank as full as possible and noticed that it was happening when my
    pressure would drop below 2K (firing style had no bearing-- using a 3K fixed output Crossfire tank). I'm not sure if the pressure drop is the issue as I think that it also happened when the tank was filled to 3K.

    I was also double feeding frequently. I'm using the killa detent from AGD
    and a non force feed hopper (I'm using a Revy). Is that a function of defective detent?

    Also, is it okay to adjust the sear to position it closer to the trigger? - -Wouldn't
    that give you a shorter trigger pull? Or, would it change the dynamics of the valve?

    Thanks in advance!! btw, several of my friends and I area headed to Wayne's
    World this weekend in Ocala, FL...should be there w/ a couple of guys with mags and a rather large individual with a shocker..hope to see you there!

    Do NOT adjust the trigger rod. You're right that it will alter the dynamics of the valve.

          I tried that, thanks. It seems to be an extremely fine adjustment line between preventing the valve from returning or double feeding. thanks for your help
