    oops... hahaha, Yeah, I see how that applies. Thanks for pointing out it was just a misunderstanding.

    A lot of people on AO are protective of the mag's rep so that's why so many people here are anti-sweetspot just to put that out there.

    My feedback if you've dealt with me, leave some...

    Fruitcat: it's what AO doesn't like.

        FYI- the reactive kick was a side effect of AGD rerouting the air flow. In a classic mag, the on/off pin is exposed to regulated air pressure. (about 400psi) The ReTro valves are exposing the on/off pin to FULL tank output pressure. That's why A) it's ready to fire immediately and B) the trigger gets kicked back out.

        Sweetspotting puts undue wear and tear on the valve & firing components- namely the sear and bolt. The more you do it, the more those parts will wear and you may end up with an uncontrollable gun or it may not work at all.

        Just remember- Tippmann DESIGNED for their trigger to go into that full-auto "sweetspot." And it uses gas to do it. Thing sucks air like soda... AGD had it as a side effect.

        Yes. Sweetspotting will get you pulled for full auto on the fields. And you'll most likely be disallowed from playing. So Magman007 was correct in telling you NOT to do it.

            AGD considers the "sweetspot" a malfunction.

            it's not recommended as it will damage the gun as Dayspring already mentioned
            i don't think they'll warantee parts damaged in this way(abuse)
            not to mention that it's really not all that useful and it's also illegal on most, if not all, insured fields

            need any other reasons not to?

                    Well since he is asking about doing it with an X valve, he does have level 10.

                        While it is fun, they are right, it does damage yoru gun. It did it so ealsily on my old RT, that after a while, anyone could do it, and soon, it did it on every trigger pull. I sent it into AGD and they replaced the sear for free, since it was the old Carbide kind (they were replacing them anyway).
