I ended up getting a message from Amazon and a refund saying they didn't have any in stock. Now i noticed that the listing is down

On my 1050 the internal crimps are super cheap. My guess is the MV50 is the same. Swap them out for some real crimps. I fried my first 1050 because the crimps failed and it shorted internally.

My MF1050 came in from the Amazon fairy today. I'm going to take it home, make sure it works, and then tear it apart and replace anything that looks cheap (Crimps, wiring, etc). It's a solid little unit, it weighs a whole hell of a lot more than I thought it would.
I'll take pictures

Mine hasn't run in years. The other reed valve broke. Honestly, in retrospect I wish I had just put the $50 toward a CO2 tank, which is what I have been using for the past two years.

I used mine for about 2 years, maybe twice a month during that time. Then the bottom of the piston became detached from the shaft. I fixed it once but it broke again the next time I used it. For the price it wasn't too bad.
