    Well that's constructive .

    I've had mine installed in a Classic for over a year, and have never chopped with it. I don't even carry a squeeqie on the field with my mag. However, I won't say it is a set it and forget it mod. It takes tweaking from time to time, and since I use CO2, it can leak if the gun gets really cold. I've also had to change to a new o-ring once recently and re-tune. It sounds like you've got some other problems or a bad lvl 10 kit.

      How is he an idiot? By having someone with more experience try and fix the problem before he blaims the company over something he might not have been doing right in the first place?

      Definitely sounds stupid to me...

      Anyways, it is always possible that you got a bad one. I might even send it in to AGD. Either way a list of what you are using is very helpful so that people can see if anything else could be causing you a problem. What gun, hopper, carrier size, spring size, what type of valve... The whole enchilada.

      That being said the only time my LX has chopped was... Well, it hasn't. But it cracked an old paintball and it leaked all over the inside of my gun before I fired again. But that was with the shortest spring (least gentle) because of a 250 fps limit.

        Yup, LX is definately all that it is hyped to be. I have 2, love both of them and can't play without them. It's not hard to set up, make sure that it is set up correctly yourself. No matter what anyone else says, there could be temperature changes, body differences, whatever. Do it yourself, takes 45 mins tops.

              I haven't chopped with LX in... well except for that one day, about 8 months. Oh yeh, that was the last time I used LX.

              I agree - LX to get it "perfectly soft" you get it finicky - sure it won't break paint but than it may not shoot. I hated it - LX is probably the reason I sold my mags, I should have lived without it and just HALO fed it adn been done with it.

              My next mag will have break beam eyes. I compare LX to Cops and Sensi. Perhaps it was better but frankly, if its not eyes it really doesn't have my attention - unless its better than eyes, to me LX was not, and is not.

                I don't have a problem with the LvlX...
                though I DO have a problem with it being very cold some days and the paint being soooo brittle that the action of the bolt rubbing PAST the next ball in the stack would break that one (it was abour 36F outside though!)

                it wasn't just me that was having the problems though, EVERY gun was having barrel breaks and random breech breaks, even if they DID have eyes!

                however, last game, I was regularly outshooting my TSA Backman and the LvlX worked great!

                  What is your velocity? I remember hearing when it gets below 250 the level 10 does work well. But I may be wrong.

                    I haven't chopped a ball since it was first released.

                            I love agd, love my mags, but I have never been able to get level 10 to work. I followed the instructions, but it either leaks when the carrier is too big or won't reset when too small. The only way I can get it to fire reliably is with the stock spring at about 250 fps.

                            I finally got it to work by buying a new reg piston. It seems that any valve made before level 10 needs a new higher pressure reg piston. (Classic, Retro, EMAG valves) Works like a charm now. :)

                              Had my LvlX for over a year - never chopped a single paintball & I can count the number of total ball breaks I've had on one hand. Just because one person is having a problem does not mean the product is worthless.....

                                yes LVL10 may be frustraiting but i believe once you have it tuned in perfect it shouldnt fail you
