Just got my RVA today... wow, not what I expected, LOL!

I thought it had a turn knob and the set screw in the middle was to lock it in place!

Questions:
The set screw turns pretty hard, how will I know when its at it's max (will it screw in tight?), it's min (will it screw out completely?)
The oring just slides in there, nothing holds it inplace or keeps it from falling? (Would've thought the RVA would've had a groove for the oring)

Thanks!

Good questions. Mine's scheduled to arrive tomorrow and now you've got me nervous. I hope you get good responses.

The nylon screws are not meant to be turned. They are already adjusted by JCS to keep the RVA screw from moving. To adjust the FPS, you screw in and out the metal screw in the middle of the cylinder, if you are lookin at it from the back.

When you screw out the screw, yes it will fall out, but by that point your gun wont function correctly. If you screw it in to much, you will cause recocking issues as well as a bent drive spring. You need topull out the RVA, screw in the screw. Make sure the tip of the screw sits slightly inside of the bevelled area (looking at the RVA from the inside/internal side). The spring guide needs to sit inside that hole, otherwise the spring guide will fall out of alignment and cause issues.

The oring is just suppose to sit loosely on the drive spring. Same as Tippmann 98's. If there was a groove for the oring, then it wouldnt absrob as much of the force as it does sitting loosely.

Travisc, think you could post a couple of pics of it? would make it easier to grasp what you mean.

Cheers

Nah I'm good now... I'm just an idiot

I thought the JCS RVA was a knob adjuster with a locking screw in the middle... lol

Ahh, ok, as long as it´s working then all is well.
