Eotech Turning off Everytime I Fire Full Auto

I'm pretty knew to these kind of sights and the terminology involved with them so please bare with me (and correct me) if I'm using something wrong or misnaming it. I have an EOTech sight, which I'm assuming is a clone of some kind since there's no trades on it. I had it attached to my old crossman starter it worked perfectly. On monday I went put it on the Jing Gong MP5 I'd just bought, but everytime I fired more than 3 or 4 rounds on full auto it turned off. I shot off a full hi-cap on single fire getting it calibrated and never had it happen, but as soon as we went into a game and I was using full auto it did it everytime.

My only guess is that the (albeit limited) recoil is enough of a bump to slightly break the circuit. The one spring in the battery compartment did seem a little off. Is there anything else that might be causing this and how can I fix it?

Have you changed the battery? I might just be turning off due to that.

Also. It's a clone. Poor wiring is a given.

Can you stretch the spring/s without breaking them?

This is a complaint with the real ones, that's why the new ones run the battery perpendicular to the action instead of in line with it.

I put in fresh batteries before I left for the field so it's definately not them. I'll check out the issue with the springs next time I have the chance to mess around with it.

Sounds like a faulty connection somewhere and is triggered by the vibration of full auto fire because it's obviously not "kick" on an aeg.
