Automag and sidewinder

Stainless Steel · 06-04-2007, 02:10 AM

When I air up my automag without the sidewinder attached, it works fine.

When I put the sidewinder on it, the marker doesnt shoot.

I am using HPA.

Any thoughts?

Automags need something like 750 psi input to work. Sounds like the sidewinder is set too low.

'Mags have a regulator built in and so does your HPA tank. Putting a third reg in there is redundant to say the least.

You know that old joke that starts off; "Doctor, when I move my arm like this is hurts..."?

Yep, the valve has a reg in it. Give it enough juice to do it's job.
