    I believe my Minimag finally died

    My 14 year old Minimag died today I think :) I haven't used my mag in years, around 5-6. Found it in my closet and wanted to breath life into it by buying a parts kit and replacing every seal. No luck, I believe it is the on/off assembly because it has no leaks but the trigger rod will not engage. How much will a complete on.off assembly cost?

    I would first take apart the on/off , make sure it has plenty of oil on the pin, and make sure it moves freely. Also your kit has all the o-rings on it to rebuild the on/off. A used L7 on/off assy should cost 5-12 very. If you want to replace it I would get a RT type on/off with a .750 pin. It lightens the pull and makes it more consistant over a ULT...

    Edit: Mags don't die they just get upgraded .

      The gun is old school, no ULT, and it has a Reactor on/off which I think is causing the problem.

        The RTon/off with a .750 pin would be an upgrade instead of replacing your L7 on/off. Try lubing it first...
