Glock 18 selector problem

    Apologies if this is addressed elsewhere, i did search for it but couldnt find any answers!

    I have a glock 18 metal slide, green gas pistol (ASG afaik) and the problem i'm having is the selector seems quite loose. This means that when i shoot it on single shot, the selector falls down onto 'safe', and when i try full auto it jolts up onto safe! Has this happened anybody before, and is it a difficult fix?

    Thanks in advance,
    Derek

    As far as I'm aware all KWA/KSC full-auto Glocks have an issue where the bearing on the selector gets loose. Try sliding the rear sight over & you will see a small hex bolt on the bearing, use the hex key that came with the pistol to tighten this bolt.

    I did note that that screw had come loose, as did the pin that goes in the back of the slide and i tightened it up. could it possibly be that something (a small ball bearing perhaps) might have come out? Im not familiar with the internals but i would imagine a spring and ball bearing would be used to give the selector the 'click' that it now seems to be missing?
