Thanks

what bottle/reg maybe an easier question to answer.

The hp crossfires worked well on the mags but the pmi pure energy bottles were very hit and miss on the euromags some worked and some didn't.

had this problem with my euromag from them about 6 months ago. had to get a spring kit and change the bolt spring. were it had been compressed for so long I think it must have shortened it. took me ages to figure out what was wrong. let us know how it goes.
 
Wierd.
Ive had mags since the nineties and I never heard of that one on a mag.

I mean, I know if you leave a spring compressed it will shorten but there is no way to leave the mag 'cocked' with the spring compressed for any period of time.

Secondly I dont see how a shortened spring can cause a situation where trigger doesnt return properly but everything else works.
It can cause many problems but the trigger return has very little to do with the bolt return.


The euromag has a ULT and retro valve I beleive.
So input pressure (what air system you have) and troubleshooting the ULT is a good place to start.

Hi, thanks for the replies, i'm using a 68 45 pure energy tank. Its weird cause it fires fine then after a few shots the trigger doesnt seem to ****. Then after a while i can hear the air **** the trigger.

I feels like am talking gobbaldy goop....

I would try adjusting the shims on the ULT trigger if it has one. Even +/- one shim can make a big difference, and it took a lot of tweaking to get my X-valved mag shooting right. Pressure also has a big effect on the RT effect of trigger, with higher pressures making the trigger re-set faster. Mine seemed to work best over 850psi, and not all pre-sets deliver that pressure reliably.
