    I just re-built my M4A1 after re-doing the Gearbox, and the gearbox fires perfectly but no BB's come out, can anybody point out something that I may have missed?

    Is the air nozzle sitting correctly on the tappet plate?

    I think so how is it supposed to be seated? The air nozzle moves when fired

    You've probably forgotten to reconnect the tappet spring :)

    And try shimming your gears , make sure the in properly and there catching the piston and pulling the tappet plate back.

    the easyiest tthing to do would be to take a picture of the inside of the gearbox when you re-open it and post it here and it will be easyier to diagnose

    Thanks for the help but I fixed this yesterday. The air nozzle slipped behind the tappet plate. Cheers
