PPS and AutoMags

We CAN do whatever may need to be done to the gun to make it right. I wouldn't make any recommendations as to what should be done until I can check it out. Each and every gun is different and even though the differences may be minimal and often times very subtle they need to be dealt with strictly on the basis of what is needed for a particular gun. Currently produced Automags don't gain much , if at all, from most of the "got to have it" mods that are/have been seen as beneficial. Some, like the "8-hole mod" are -IMHO- a complete waste of time and $$$ and do little more, to enhance performance, than any other placebo. For the most part, current level Automags are manufactured with more than adequate flow and chamber sizing characteristics, which leaves little more than the detailing and fine tuning left to do to optimize the performance. Most often, the trick to finding that "sweet spot" in the performance of a paintgun is knowing when to STOP messing with it. There usually comes a point when; the more you do to it, the more you end up having to do to it.

The 2 main areas of concern in establishing consistent and dependable operation in an Automag are the "on-off" valve (how far it opens and its timing, relative to firing) and the power tube, (surface finish, o-ring positioning and very precise dimensioning relative to the other parts that interact with it. Another important concern is the consistency of the output from the regulator (A.I.R.). Sometimes, simply polishing the surface where the plunger O-ring rides can make for a very noticeable improvement in shot to shot consistency. Also, it is important to have consistent pressure going to the gun's regulator so an additional regulator upstream from the gun will provide 2 stage regulation which is inherently much more consistent.

Even with current high precision machining and manufacturing processes, there will always be some variations in the individual components and when you put all those components together, the variations don't just add up; they multiply up and it is a geometric progression.

Normally, the detailing and fine tuning process will run between $60.00 and $100.00, After that it is a matter of personal preference as to the hardware that can be bolted on.

If it is dropping off durring rapid fire without the Stabilizer in place the problem is either in the on of valve or the guns reg. If the drop off isn't there without the Stabilizer in place.... send the Stabilizer in for repair/replacement

Drop off is not a pressure control problem it is more a matter of a flow restriction thru the guns regulator or on/off valve and more likely than not it is simply a matter of the on/off valve not coming open quite far enough to allow sufficient flow to the firing chamber to fully recharge it before the next shot.
