My 4 month old E-Mag is showing strange wear on the power tube. I've used the marker about 4 times and shot a case each time. The last 2 times I've gotten it home and noticed these nasty scratches on the power tube.
The first time I saw them I buffed them out, but now I'm getting a little worried. My level 7 valve is 13 years old, but this valve will not last that long if it keeps this wear up.
I lube the marker before every day of play through the ASA, and clean it thoroughly after. The first time I saw it I thought perhaps some dirt got inside and had it's way with the power tube, but now it's happened again on the same exact side. This last outing I shot a case of paint and didn't break one ball.
The scratches are all on the bottom side of the power tube, (as you can see from the picture).
Any advice would be appreciated. I'm also hoping that a AGD tech can take a look at the picture as well.
Thanks in advance!
