Gun won't shoot in full auto

Dread-Lock

I have an JG MP5 Navy that I recently did some work on and surprise surprise it's giving me grief.

It wouldn't fire at all for me but then I figured out the motor height needed to be adjusted.
Now I can fire in semi no problem, but it won't fire in full auto. When I fire in full auto I can hear the motor trying to turn over (kinda like when you have a dead battery).

Anyone have any ideas what might be causing this?

Edit: And no its not because my battery is dead :P.

I have the same problem with my m4

Re-do everything you did to it, backwards

Seriously though, I dunno how you managed it, maybe selector plate is in wrong, or semi auto cut-off arm.

Sounds like you might have installed the little key in the reciever (interlocks with the selector plate) around the wrong way, its unusual to have a full auto problem as the guns are designed to run in FA by default. the fact that semi is working suggests everything is all good inside the gearbox and that a selector assembly issue is more likely.

Thanks, I'll give that shot.

I forgot to say that the strange thing is the gun was working perfectly before I left to go to the mall. I threw it in my storm case. When I opened it at the mall it wouldn't fire.

I bet you surprised a lot of shoppers though.
