    What are those 4 stars any ways? Does every mag have them? What do you mean they will use one of them? Approxamatly how much do you think it would cost if i send it to agd to be fixed? Prolley enough i could buy and x valve and that would fix the problem wouldnt it?

      The stars entitle you to one free valve rebuild by AGD, each. There is a little more to it than that, but you can find the details on the AGD's site pretty easy.

      Have you gassed it up, fired a shot, and held the trigger yet? This is one of the easiest ways to trouble shoot the difference between powertube and on/off problems. If the leak stops, its a power tube issue. If the leaks continues, its an on/off issue. Very simple.

        Yes, and it does both. But normally if i hold it in it will stop, but like I said if it is a stream, it will just slow it down a little. So i can get it fixed for free 4 times if need be? What do i need i wonder since it is a used gun they will still let me send it in. Ill Check it out!!

          As far as I know, use of the stars is not limited to the original owner (correct me guys if i'm wrong.) Personally, I wouldn't waste a star until I bought a parts kit and started replacing different o-rings. Mags are incredibly easy to work on and you have a vast resource for troubleshooting here.

          I don't know if this has been pointed out to you in previous posts (just skimmed over them), but the order of parts in the power tube is o-ring first, then spacer, then power tube tip. After you replace the ring, play with the spacers until you find the one that doesn't cause a leak. Simple. Unless you have a cracked power tube, the new batch of o-rings should take care of it.

            It's Fixed!! Yes

            I just fixed it. And i cannot get over what it was, it was the o-ring that goes in before the spacer in the powertube. But i could have never figured it out without your guy's help, because i didnt have a manual and it was never there to begin with so... i would have never known. BUT the funny thing is HOW did it work for the 100 shots before? I hope it isnt just a string of luck for the one day, then tommorow i get it out and it does it all over again. Just pray that dosent happen. BUT, THANKS TO ALL WHO HELPED
