    please help

    I am running out of ideas. I have owned an automag for a long time, classic valve run on CO2. now spend 6 months building an ULE mag with an xvavle ULT and Level 10. Get it all together buy a compressed tank and go to fire it the first time ever. nothing the bolt never goes forward. the air moves the sear buy the trigger never lets the bolt go forward. So i start with moving the sear length nothing. then I have this whloe new valve that came used with all these spacer and no directions. So i have no clue what to work with first. no matter how many shims the ULT has it never leaks, so i figure i have to do something with the level 10.

    The gun is a ule body, shadow rail, chimera frame, and a 4500 psi HP tank. so Please help me, i have stared at this gun for months and now realize that i can't figure it out. thanks for looking Joel

        Turn up the velocity some more or try a weaker bolt spring.

            What is the output of your tank? check your L10 carrier size.

                Look in the L10 guide in these forums. The carriers start with (no marks) then (1 dot) then (1 grove) then (1dot and 1 grove) then (2 groves) and so on. The key is to use the same carrier o-ring when you change the carrier size. Your tank is fine.

                    0 lines on a carrier = 0, 1 line on a carrier=1, 1 line and 1 dot(on the other end)=1.5
                    2 lines=2, 2 lines 1 dot=2.5 and so on

                    start with a 2 (2 lines no dots) fire a bunch of rounds see if the leak stops, if not maybe go down a half to 1.5

                    it may take a tank or 2 or 3 to get it right

                    btw, dont mess with the trigger rod if you moved it you should put it back.

                      ok so the video was a huge help, I now understand the markings and how to properly assemble the level 10. i have the the 2 line carrier in it. and there is still the problem of the bolt not moving at all. the sear is where it needs to be. but the bolt does not move. I have the velocity the whole way up, i have tried all three spring and get nothing. I am stumped.

                          Check the clearace of the trigger, and look at your on/off assam.

                            YES the safety is off, trigger clearance in the sense of how?

                              if you happen have calipers i think it should measure 1.985 inches


                              but no air leaks right now with the 2 carrier, and when you turn on your air source you hear the "click" or no
