KJW CO2 1911 Problem

    I have KJW CO2 1911. Its the WW2 style not the PD version.

    Ive had it a few years now and it's gotten alot of use as my primary.

    My problem is it that it wont cycle properly anymore. I'll insert the mag and rack the slide as normal. It'll chamber a bb fine and fire one fine. But then the slide dosent cycle properly and i have to rack it again thus loosing a bb out the end of the barrel. Basically in order to use the gun i'm having to use it like a springer.

    Any help would be greatly accepted.

    Had a similar problem before and it turned out to be the barrel bushing was worn, replaced the bushing problem went away.

    I would inspect the rails and outer barrel for wear and surface condition and also check the loading/air nozzle that it moves freely and is not damaged.

    Does anyone know of any decent pistol techies because i think this may be something to do a spring in the hammer.
