Gun not firing
« on: May 25, 2014, 11:11:45 AM »
Hey guys I recently bought a Elite Force M4 CQB and so I set up a little target in my backyard to shoot it and see how it handles. It fired wonderfully until I set it down to see where I hit the target. After I checked I started to shoot again but nothing came out so I looked at the mag to see if I needed to reload and there was only about 10 in the mag so I reloaded it and it still didn't fire any BB's ( I used the high grade BBs they tell you to use) do I need to get a tech to look at it or is the mag just not feeding well?

Two things you can do, make sure the mag feeds still by loadin and letting burst in your hand. Also, take the mag out flip the gun upside down, and look down the mag well. When you fire it, make sure the nozzle is moving, oh and for this make sure for safety to wear glasses.  :o

Sounds like it might be jammed, or if you're using a hicap it's not wound properly.

Pride is right! Look at the mag and put some silicone oil in it, an also look in the gun with out the mag in it (up side down) look where the bbs feed and dry fire it, look to see is you see a little nozzle thing moving, if you don't let someone look at it
