    Hi guys i have a problem with my m4 it wont shoot at all when i load the gun and fire it in full auto or semi the bbs get like jammed i think the problem is this rubber fitting that is right between the barrel and the hop up it slides over the end of the barrel when u pull it back so the bbs can just fall through the barrel it works but i only got like 100 fps and if i leave it not moved it wont feed the bbs at all and the barrel might fill with bbs and fall out. Hope ye can help me :)

    If you post it up I'll ask Richie to have a look at it for you. If theres no new parts required, we'll do it for free. If it needs parts, I'll give you a shout before we do it to let you know a price.

    If you'd rather not post it, the guys in Quality Airsoft Supplies do good work - you can ask if they'll take a look at it in their thread in the retailers section.

    Yeah, send it up....we'll sort it out for free. All it will cost you is the price of the shipping up to us - I'll send it back via Fastway couriers.

    Put it in the box if you still have it, then wrap it well. If you dont have the box, try wrap it in cardboard before you cover it with plastic or wrapping paper. Just make sure its not visible or identifiable through the packing.

    Include your name and address inside, and PM here with your name, address and telephone number so I'll have a cross-reference for it.

    Yeah, that's a good idea. Just out of interest, what brand are they.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 445 ✭✭IIIAcHmEdIII

    Yeah, before you waste time and money sending it up here, try some decent BBs.

    SE Airsoft sell Gunfire precision BBs - grab some of them.

    Drop in and we can sort you out with a few bags of sample bb's FoC. :)

    Nope no luck with the exel bbs .it shoots like 10 shots then stops and might shoot like 5 out like a shotgun

    hummmm, i had some probs when i got some midcaps recently where they wernt feeding right, basically, the mag catch wasnt holding the mag high enough in the magwell, so the hop chamber wasnt pulling the bb catch on the mag bag fully, sometimes i would get double feeds, sometimes none,

    very anoying

    all i have to atm is use the magwell as a grip so i hold the mag that little bit( less that a mm) higher up
    when i get around to it, ill put a small layer of tape in the slot on each mag to push it further up

    so just push the mag up genttly while shooting and see if it works

    Tape the magwell instead, does the same thing.
