Glock 17 dumping gas

[Avtomat] · December 6th, 2008, 16:15

Just i quick update.

I cut the spring with pliers and it did fix the problem (thus, the root of the problem was the floating valve spring) Although i ended up cutting it further then i should which compromised the power of the shot and dropping the FPS. I don't have a chronograph, but it can't even shoot through a simple card board box now. which sucks.

Anyways, i found this on airsoftparts.ca. Wondering if you guys know if this is the correct part i need to replace my defective spring. It says it is compatible with TM glocks which is what i need. I just need to verify that what i need is indeed a floating valve spring.

thanks.

I'd say that you've got a reasonably good chance that that spring is what you're looking for. It does look like a reed valve spring for a recent TM GBB. At the very least there's a decent chance you could modify it to fit.

Alright thanks a bunch again Carl. At $10 plus shipping, i think it's worth a try.
