KJW Ruger NBB "Luger style", Stiff/No action
« on: November 09, 2005, 09:11:53 PM »
I have two of these pistols, one ended up getting heavily coated in dirt at the last game, to the point of not firing & not dropping the clip.

Not a big deal I figured, i've been doing light gunsmithing on real guns for years.

Disassemble (Down to the last pin), clean with silicone, check all the moving parts during reassembly against all the parts in the other "cleaner" pistol (Seems to look and move fine), try the action.

Really REALLY stiff, (IE. takes 2 fingers to make it fire).

So I figured maybe I used too much silicone. Diassemble both, dry/polish completely and reassemble. All the component parts seem just fine.

Till it's fully assembled, then it's either horribly tight or won't fire at all.

There's probably something i'm missing here, any ideas?

(I'm 100% certain they're assembled properly, and there is no dirt left in them)

Thanks

So, how is it, if you've been doing "light gunsmithing" for years...that you do not know the proper terminology for a magazine?

Give the end of the barrel a proper thud with your fist. The hop has seated too far forward and is inhibiting the action.

Probably because my father who taught me always called them "clips".

"light" as in I work on my own guns, i'm not certified or whatnot.

The action works fine before I put in the rear spring, everything seems to be aligned correctly.

  A clip goes into a gun.  A magazine is on a combat ship.  ;)
