lvl10, no leaks, but nothing happens when i pull the trigger

[joker4hire]

Just as the title says.

I'm shooting out of a CO2 bottle, so I think thats 850 psi. I am also using the shortest spring (I tried the longest first, but is didn't shoot then either)

I have a stock frame (stock everything actually, 'cept lvl10)
Using the 1.5 carrier and 2 shims.


I gas it up, pull the trigger, and nothing happens.. please help! :)

Turn up the velocity until it shoots.

The longer the spring, the higher you have to crank the velocity to counteract the spring's force.

Yep, just turn up the velocity until it shoots. Then check the velocity reading.

Cool, thanks guys seems to shoot now... I just need to check what I'm shooting at.

also, make sure that you are using the largest carrier that dosn't leak. Using a smaller carrier can cause non-reliale firing issues.

Hey guys,
I'm having the same problem with my friend's mag. I've tried everything... every carrier, with every combination of spring and shim, as well as turning the velocity up. I'm not joking, I've messed with this thing for over 6 hours and it still doesn't work. He has a minimag, with Eclipse rail, Retro Valve, and Z-grip. It's almost as if the sear isn't tripping the on off. Could it be the grip? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance.

I've tried it all man... it just doesn't work. The sear feels almost tight. I've adjusted that as well and still nothing..

[IcantBelieveit]

what spring are you using?

[blizpaintball42]

i've tried each carrier with each spring with no to all shims and nothing at all works... like i said, i have over 6 hours of tinkering with this gun

what is your input pressure? have a full tank of air?
