G&P M4A1 Feeding Issue

Soulitude · June 15th, 2006, 20:33

Hey Guys, i Hope someone can help me solve this

Basically my BBs are loading properly, I'm using BB Bastard .25s in a MidCap and the Rifle is as stock as they come.

Its not that the Rifle doesnt fire, it'll fire fine on semi but when i go full-auto the bbs dun get into the barrel sometimes and it still runs but no pellets are coming out. My friend said it could be the spring in the mag i'm using but my CA M4 Highcap runs into the same issue.

I hope someone can help me, i'm rather new to this and i'm looking for everything to be running smoothly before i go into a Sim.

Try turning your hop-up all the way off and see if the problem persists.

actually after lookin at it after i emptied the barrel of all rounds and turning it upside down (yeah i read the mentioned message) i noticed that the bolt that fires the pellet doesnt fully retract when firing full auto, so i tried it again and when it did jam, all i can do is flip it upside down and then the pellet will go in place.

i hope that little update helps, i still cant get it working properly tho

New gun or used?

Brand New

Let a tech look at it. It's likely going to be more involved than a "new guy" may be willing to get into.

Always good to get a few drops of silicon oil in the loading nzzle to make sure the BBs slip through the hop up seal nicely. Picture being born without anything to lube your way out................ that's what BBs experience every few thousand shots.

Soulitude,
Slowly pull the inner barrel forward while firing to see if the misfeeding stops.
