    my LX chopped the 2nd time I used it. I think it's because I out shot my hopper.. maybe. Then again that still means it isn't a true "no chop" bolt because it did excecute a bad chop... and then 3 after wards. Cleaning out a mag after a bad chop is hell.

      Not really. I had a hyperframed RT that wouldnt stop chopping because it had the old style non parabolic feedplug. I think I chopped like 10 balls, and paint was everywhere. So I dumped it in a bucket of water. (not the frame)

        w/ eyes, you still waste a cycle if the ball isnt in the chamber all the way, and hence, time. LX>Eyes ANY day
        b/c LX doesnt require batteries...

          Lvl 10 is good but it screws efficiency.

            Which is why you see so many mags at tournaments. Yeh, even those that there are not sponsored players at

              Is your lvlX a foamie? B/c foamie bolts are much less likely to chop than the regulars. I do believe some lvlX's come non-foamie, but I may be wrong.

                Same, I had an Emag and a Micro mag with LX, both guns were still blenders.

                  first thing you must be useing sucky paint

                  also what spring are you useing and what is your fps set at??

                  small spring is made for 250-260- fps red large spring is made for 260-to 300 fps

                  jest some common things you should know about level 10

                  how tight is the spacer and oring

                  it should be the looses without it cuffing or leaking. if its to tight somtimes the bolt gets stuck and dosent reset and also is harder on paint??

                  dont use sucky paint


                  NOTE

                  i have an e-mag with out the ace eye's with but i have level 10

                  i was reading about level 10 on airgun and ao and thouse steps i stated above help

                  i used to pintch and chop all the time but i did because i was shooting 300 fps with the small spring witch is harder on paint.

                    Lvl 10 is like a cocker... when its properly tuned, it works flawlessly, when its not, its your worst nightmare.

                    Quite correct, Lvl 10 can be finiky, it has a small happy zone it likes to operate in, you step outside that zone and you'll either get bolt stick (where it wont fire) or it'll be hitting the ball too hard.

                    From what you're saying about it hurting your finger and breaking paint, I suspect you're working with a much higher input pressure then what Black set it up for when he tuned it. I highly suggest talking with Black and replicating his tuning settings. If you're using a preset, then you need to send it back to him to tune specifically to that operating pressure.

                      Eyes are great and what not but some people want their mag to be all mech and ss bodies can't use eyes either. LvlX is anti chop without batteries. Currently I use an e-mag with ss body and after 20k paintballs I have had no chops with lvlX. I even tested it on 4 year old paint(don't ask) holding the paint half way in the breech using tape and could not get a chop even when the mag was set at 300fps. BTW I use the old wire nubbins :)

                        So... no batteries is better than batteries? If you say yes.. have one other question.

















                        I assume you use a q-loader? Or gravity feed?

                          What? Put as many shims in as you can fit without it leaking.

                          Cleaning a mag is so easy. Usually one swab of my squeegie and a few dry fires on teh field is all I need to get going again after a break (I use DO NOT CIRCUMVENT THE CURSE FILTER field paint a lot. Is not even round.. lol) Cleaning off the field is as easy as removing the valve adn running a squeegie through it.

                            I think you took me wrong. Some people want their marker to be all mech. I did not say that I do. As I said I use an E-MAG (large flippin battery included). I did not say that all mech is better but the lvlX caters to those who don't or can't use eyes. AGD made anti chop available to all mag users and that was my point.

                                Q-loader + lvl 10 bolt = kickass setup. especially after you have luke convert your powerfeed into a warpfeed and make the whole body all shiny haha
