All Caps posts make baby jesus cry

anyway, um, use the cleaning rod to push it down towards the hopup unit (with the hop fully off) then see if you can get a tweasers in to grab the piece of cloth?

wouldnt advise emptying a mag into it, you'll only cause a jam and then all sorts of bad things can happen

sorry kd didnt know caps was on ,il give it ago

tweasers didnt work wasnt skinny enough ,cut a small fishing hook till it was small enought to fit down the barrel with some line attached and pulled it out ,,il test fire it tomorow to make sure that no damage is done

o...........k....

my first thought upon reading that was fish hook in barrel = scratched barrel....

i hope not though

If its a dboys, the allen key you got with it will open the two nuts on the side, slide off the upper receiver( disconnect the wires in the handgrip first)
And the barrel and hop will slide out on their own, from here taking off the barrel is handy, just take off the small piece of white plastic clipped on that holds it in place. Then just push the obstruction through.

Think its the same for TM brand m4s.

Just need the allen key to get started.

If this advice isnt applicable then just ignore it, goodluck.
