I went to use my mag for the 3rd time last night and guess wut happened when i gassed it up? Absulutley nuthing! The trigger would return but there wuz like no pressure or anything in the gun, it wouldnt cock or anything. 4 techs worked on it for like 2 hours and they couldnt figure out was wrong. One of em said his mag just died like that too. What can i do? i orderd it from bbt, can i take it back and get a refund from them or agd?? Im really pissed, im not gonna be able to pball untill christmas now, then im getting a cocker or defiant. I hope u guys have better luck with ure mags.

First, take it apart and clean it as tom kaye describes in the video. Make sure there are no obstructions in the air passages of the gun.

If this does not fix it, if it is a new gun it is under warrenty from agd and they will fix it for free.

The tank isnt empty, trust me, im not this dumb. The guy refilled it just to make sure before he started messing with it anyway.

Have you changed something since the last time you used it? Did you take something apart/off? Put it back the way it was and see what happens.

What kind of tank are you using? HPA? Co2? Try a friend's tank that works on his marker.

IM useing Co2, i tried someone elses co2 already, all i had different was a a reg isntead of xchamber, we took the reg off and screwed the tank in verticly, still no luck. Will agd refund me? or will they jsut offer to fix it? Im gonna sell it if they just fix it and get a impy. Maybe i just got a defected mag.

The problem could be a worn sear, try replacing the sear. Also I had a problem on my gun when I turned the velocity down. Try turning the rear velocity in all the way and firing the gun. Other than that I couldn't tell you without looking at the gun.

You may want to check your reg seat or the valve may be totally shot but its worth it to buy another valve for 55 bux rather than to get an autochopper

UHm.. Mags work on CO2. They can work well on CO2 as a matter of fact.

anyways. are you getting a soft squishy feeling on the trigger? then it's in the reg/air supply

check hose blockage, check reg seat (thick rubberish disk thing), check the spring pack,

also you could ask at automags.org

how can mags work well on co2? double regged and anti syphoned? any other ways you know of? bc for the price of that you might as well get nitro.

Remote+X-chamber to run a mag on co2. On a warm summer day mine runs ok using a 20oz co2 screwed into the vert adapter. It's fine for rec ball that way.

won't disagree if you are talking about buying everything new, however, you can buy a cold weather co2 setup piecemeal. 20 bucks here and there is a lot easier for some people than coming up with 100 all at one time.

plus when I ran co2 there were VERY few air systems available and were a lot more expensive than I could afford.

I got my RA number, all i have to do now is send it in. I just havnt had time to do that lately. I'll have it to agd buy the end of the week hopefully. Im pretty sure they will be able to fix it.

Im sending it in tomarrow morning for 2 day. Does anyone kno how long it usually takes to get the gun back and what will happen if they cant fix it?

You should get it back in about a week, possibly less. They WILL fix it. It is there warrenty policy and if you have stars on the valve, it will cost you nothing, even if a major part needs to be replaced. (wich I doubt is the case)

AGD takes great pride in thier customer service and has earned a rep as the best company in paintball when it comes to customer service. It is a reletively small company (15 or so employees I think) so if you call up, they should be able to tell you how it is coming along and when you shopuld expect it back.
