Lucky stage 1 2 3 help needed!

[John C]

I'm pretty sure mine is a V1, and I don't have a QEV, so should I leave the spring in?

Also, is it normal for a new bolt to be slightly stiff at first? I've lubed it pretty thoroughly but it is a bit sticky.

PS thanks for all the help guys.

Yeah leave it in there.

Ok thanks, spring is staying in.

The bolt had no leaks at all and cycled nicely at about 60psi lower than before actually . The thing is, my stock Ion bolt moves with almost no resistance in the chamber, but the new one is a bit stiff (even with the spring out). Is this just because it's a new bolt?

Yeah,

When new your orings should be a little tight, so that they have chance to bed in to the surface they are running against.

Feeling tight is no problem, its only bad if it feels rough or really loose.

Edit im sure that last sentence is gonna make gorgeous quotes

I just got delivery on and older ali bolt, can and donut ( 1,2,3 stages)

gonna look at fitting them tomorrow this thread should help me out as I also have a spring in my set.

As part of a separate purchase I also have a 5.1 body now for my other ion, just a quick question but I'm guessing I need to use the existing eye wire to connect the lucky laser eyes to my t-board?
