Hello all,

I was recently modding my magstrike (lock removal, oprv chopped) and as i was pumping it I noticed the pump would pop out every time i pumped it, but the bladder had no visible leaks at all and the air was escaping out of the pump shaft.
I think the rubber air stopper valve at the bottom if the shaft ripped?
Not quite sure but if anyone has experience with this could you please help me out?

Is it not pumping? Or is it randomly leaking air somehow? Because if it wasn't pumping, your o-ring may be messed up.

Your check valve in your pump is probably broken, as discussed in here. http://nerfhaven.com...l=&fromsearch=1
I know there's another similar thread somewhere that linked to a website that provided free samples, and someone with this same problem was able to solve it that way. Maybe you'll have more luck finding it than I did.

Yep, the check valve was totaly split in half.
Replaced it with a $7 Telescoping Kmart pump. Works fine now,
Thanks heaps!,
