Even if they look open and clean, they usually have a layer of two of crud caked in the ports that a drill bit will scrape off.

    And buy good O rings...do not use the ones you can buy on amazon or ebay.

    Glad you got it running!
    I did... Maybe I did not use a big enough bit but I will find out when I get it back. Used the viton o rings... I obviously missed something....

    It very may have been the viton O-ring too, the ones you can get from a hardware store or auto parts store sometimes can be hit or miss.
    They usually work just fine, but for high volume shooting at a range with hundreds of rounds shot through them a week, the Captain O ring ones worked the best.
