WElcome to the world.

The baggie is a bunch of carriers. The LEvel 10 bolt is great. ITs downside the is O-ring that makes it functional. The Carriers "Carry" a special white O-ring.

See, each batch of O-rigns has different tolerances, and each one is a bit different. In order to compensate, the folks down at AGD came up witht he idea of providing you with different size carriers. This allows you to "tune in" to the right size carrier for your O-ring.

Theres 3 springs? Red bronze and silver. These are the bolt springs. Much like the bolt spring in your tippmann, except they are used the opposite way. If theres not a spring attached to the bolt (which should have been attached to the valve), you need to get one on there if you want it working right.

The gold thing is called the powertube tip. This is what holds the O-ring carrier in place.

For more information, you can AIM me (I logged off a few minutes ago becuase I had too many IMs for me to handle.. I just got back from vaca and am trying to clean up around here). My AIM is TheAlphaMag.

In the meantime while I do my forum cleaning, you can visit my site (www.TheAlphaMag.com) and check out the mag tech section. I have a detailed article (which is identical to the LX thread in this forum).
