Upgraded Issues

jeawan

Last week i Upgraded my M4 Barrel to a m16 Precession barrel + a Silencer to cover barrel and added a Guarder hop up as well , since doing this i have noticed a massive reduction in range and also it is firing when on semi 3 BB's at a go not all the time though .

Any idea why this is happening i will be bring it back to t he shop later this week but if i can fix it my self it would save me the driving .

you may need to change the cylinder in the gear box to a non vented one to compensate for the increased volume of the barrel.

as for the 3 bb's thing, there is a cut off lever in the gearbox which may be worn.

If the hop-up rubber is shoved onto the barrel really tight it can deform the lips (or whatever that bit is called) of it. Have a look at the hop-up rubber and see if it's perfectly round or not; if not, that can cause some strange problems, and it's easy to have it happen when installing one.

When i put the barrel in they changed the hop up rubber as it was worn , the gun hasn't really being fire bar the weekend but ill check that again.

cheers guys

Sounds like the hop was badly installed.

I though that at first but the lads in Eirsoft installed it and i would think they know what they are at .

Still wouldn't hurt to check it, I've had problems with Guarder hops misfeeding, they're either installed wrong or need to bed in. It's mostly that they're installed wrong and need a bit of tweaking.
