1-3. COMPONENTS
The major components of the 68MICROMAG (including standard variations) and their purpose are
covered here and are shown in Figures 1 thru (x).
a. Gun Body
b. Grip Frame
c. A.I.R. valve assembly
d. Bottomline ASA adapter or Vertical ASA adapter (on some models only)
e. Barrel
f. Sight Rail
g. Ball Detent
h. Powerfeed
i. Remote Quick-Disconnect fitting from valve (some models)
a. GUN BODY. The gun body assembly serves as the chassis for all of the gun's components.
b. GRIP FRAME. The grip frame attaches to the gun body and holds the trigger, safety and Bottomline
ASA adapter assemblies.
c. A.I.R. VALVE. The A.I.R. valve consists of the regulator, the ON/OFF assembly, the POWER TUBE
assembly and the BOLT assembly. The regulator is located at the rear of the valve assembly and
incorporates the VELOCITY ADJUSTER (see FIGURE ). The ON/OFF assembly controls the gas flow
between the regulator and the gun (see FIGURE ). The POWER TUBE assembly, along with the BOLT
assembly push the ball into the barrel and releases the gas which fires the ball.
d. RETROVALVE. This variation is similar to the A.I.R. valve in construction, but is a more advanced
design which incorporates a rapid trigger return system.
d. BOTTOMLINE ASA ADAPTER. This fitting receives the CO2 tank (as well as some regulated
compressed N2 or compressed air systems) in a 'back bottle' or 'shoulder stock' mount and delivers gas to
the valve through its hose connection. It can also be connected to a 'remote tank hook-up' with the use of
an additional adapter.
e. VERTICAL ASA ADAPTER. This fitting receives the CO2 tank (as well as some regulated HPA
systems) in a vertical or foregrip mount. It can also be connected to the BOTTOMLINE ADAPTER when
used with an expansion chamber or gas-thru foregrip, and many aftermarket foregrips are made to attach to
it as well. It can also be connected to a 'remote tank hook-up' with the use of an additional adapter.
f. BARREL. The Micromag barrel uses the standard Autococker barrel thread. Standard model
MICROMAGs are furnished with a stock barrel. Some models may be furnished with an ARMSON
internally rifled barrel.
g. SIGHT RAIL. The sight rail is integrated into the Micromag's body and will accept all 1/2 inch dovetail
mounts and sights.
h. BALL DETENT. This is a spring operated device mounted below the POWERFEED which prevents
more than one ball from entering the chamber at a single time.
i. POWERFEED. The POWERFEED is attached to the side of the gun body and is used to guide balls
into the chamber and also serves as the attachment point for all paintball feeder elbows.
1-4. TOOLS
a. ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEMBLY. The only tool required for normal assembly and disassembly are:
1/8 inch allen wrench (front frame screw, field strip screw, velocity adjusting nut
