My mag won't shoot....

[ttink]

So I have it set up with Ss body, classic valve, RT pro rail, CF trigger frame, and CO2. When I pull the trigger it goes back but does not shoot the gun. It is as if the sear is not reaching the on/off. The trigger will return, but it will not actually shoot the gun. Any suggestions?

i know exactly whats wrong. the ss body needs to be modded to work with an rt sear. try this. put the marker together except for the valve and try to pull the trigger. youll see where the back of the sear comes up to hit the on/off. the classic ss body's hole is too small. just drill it wider a little.

The mag bodies and rails are interchangeable. Some of the older retro bodies (not RT) had pims that were a bit longer and needed them to be sanded down but that is all.

The fact that the trigger is under pressure and you are able to pull it means you are in contact with the on-off pin and the hole is lined up. The trigger rod may be out of spec though, especially since it is an after market trigger frame. With the mag gassed up and the trigger fully forward, there should be a very tiny gap between the back of the trigger and the trigger rod. Too much gap and you may not be able to allow the sear to release the bolt. No gap and you may not be able to charge the front chamber.
