Hey Forum,

Recently I bought a Magic Box M14 Cylinder for my FAMAS, as well as a Lonex POM Ventilation PH, attached to a Magic Box 8-Steel Tooth POM Piston.

I thought that these parts would fit nicely, but upon testing, I found that inside the cylinder, the piston head (It definitely is the piston head, not the piston) makes small scratching noises. It's also a very tight fit, especially when compared to placing it inside my stock cylinder.

Is there a known incompatibility between these two parts? Have I got a lemon? I'd like to use my new cylinder, seeing as how I paid good money for it, but if it damages both the Piston Head and itself, I'm not sure if I want to put it in a full-speed trial yet.

Does anyone have recommendations on what I could do?

Thanks in advance!
