    Is your rail milled to accept Warp bodies?

        Is it a warp left body or a power feed?

        Warp is aluminum the power feed is steel. The warp body will require a notch to be cut in the rail to fit properly. It can be filed or milled. I have done many with a roto file and a drill but be careful or you will scratch your rail.

        This sounds like your issue, other then that there should be nothing else that is keeping it from going together.
        ......You know you want one!!

          i guess i dont know the diff. the main problem is the sear wont move cause it dosent line up with the hole.

              Yeah you only need to get the rail milled for the ULE warp bodies where the feed hole is at a 90 degree angle. The stainless power feed or warp bodies which look lie a cut down powerfeed should work fine.
              Is your RT a classic or a pro? I don't think classic RTs will fit any other AGD bodies asside from the one they come with. If you have a classic RT you would need to find a power feed right body. I think I saw one once but I could be mistaken. They are extreemly rare if they exist at all.
              If you have a PRO all I can think of (without seeing pics) is do you have an unmodified stock AGD rail?

                  All you have to do is mark where the feed neck of the body sits on the rail. Take a file and gently remove some aluminum at that location. Keep trying it as you file until the body fits down in the rail properly.
                  Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

                    the body fits fine. but, the sear dosent go into the hole. ( it missed in like a 16th of an inch) everything else is fine it all screws tight but when i air it up itwont hold air & wont fire.

                      i know whats wrong. the sear back is too wide to go thru the back sear hole that hits the on/off. just drill that hole a little bigger and youll be set. just make sure the on/ off cant go through hole, that would be bad lol.

                        The on-off is much smaller than the hole. It is held in place by the sear. The sear should fit the hole. That shouldn't be a problem.

                        Check to see if the rail bushing is in place. If not, the rail won't line up properly.

                          rt sears are larger than classic sears. so the whole will need to be bigger. i had the same problem and it works fine now.

                            If you mean "classic RT" (is the body on it WAY longer than your new one, with the holes in the front part of the body?) a new rail won't help you, you will need a new valve too since the RT valve NEEDS the rail it comes with and it won't fit any other bodies anyway. You will also need a new grip frame too most likely since the hole in the back where the banjo bolt goes to attach to the rail (and valve) will be too wide. On that note you would need a regular field strip screw to go with the new valve. AGD has a program to upgrade but I wouldn't bother, besides these pieces should be kept as is for people to enjoy :). Keep the RT as it is and just sell it and buy a new gun if you are dead set on a warp body since you have to trade in your valve and body plus over $300 to upgrade. You may aswell take the $300 plus the $100-200 you would make selling your RT (if you want to) and buy a pro custom. You may not have to pay as much since you may convince AGD to knock off whatever you paid for your body (if bought new) and ship you the pro custom with no body.

                            Also if you have the stock barrel for your RT it won't work in your new body. The barrel I have is twistlock for Power feed left/warp right and won't work for powerfeed right/warp left. The same barrel bought new from AGD will work since it has been modified. Check your barrel if it has only one grouve for the "lock" ("L" shape) then you will need a new barrel. The new barrels have one grouve, but with a "T" shape so you can do either feeds (except centre feed).

                              I doubt brand new bodies will be incompatible with some of their sears.
