Problem with GR16?

    Well Lads, got a G&G GR16 today but I've been having major problems with it. It was firing grand, and then it stopped firing completely so one of the lads told me to adjust the screw under the grip, I done that and it started firing again. Soon after I had the same problem, so I adjusted it some more, not after I adjust it only fires about 2 shots before I have the same problem again. Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Are you sure that the battery is fully charged

    To adjust the motor height (the screw in the base of the grip)
    Turn the screw clockwise (tighten) until you feel some resistence do not overtighten then turn the screw back (loosen) 1 full turn 360 degrees
    The motor height should be set about right now

    It is always better to have that screw a little on the loose side rather then overtighten it

    I've adjusted it a few times already, it will shoot a few rounds and then stop again. Not sure if its the screw just loosening on me or what? I'll try what you said later on and see if it works. I heard that if you adjust it too much you can lock the gearbox?

    Drop out the screw and wrap the threads in a little bit of PTFE tape(plumbers tape),,re adjust the motor height,

    The tape will stop the adjustment screw from backing up.
