Army R85A1 - Help Question!!

Oct 24, 2007 6:53pm
Ok so I have one of these and I was trying to take a peek inside. I broke it down per the manual. Had fun looking at all the inner workings and then went to put it back together. I CAN'T :( !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I cannot figure out why the lower half won't reconnect with the upper half. I beg anyone with experience on this gun or one like it to tell me the magic of this stupid thing. I hav'nt had my patience tested like this in a long time. :D PLEASE HELP ME!!!?????

What was that site to buy cheap batteries again?

www.pointact.com Scroll to the bottom past the cheapo batteries and look for the intellect batteries. Prices are awesome.

I haven't take apart mine yet, but following the manual. You have to connect the connectors, line up the upper and lower receiver, then slide the upper receiver back to the position, and push the takedown pin back.

Whats the takedown pin?

The receiver takedown pin on the back, next to the rubber pad. Only that pin holds the upper and lower receiver together.

Oh yea, I know that pin.

Make sure the white plastic piece that helps hold the magazines in is put in the correct way(it's real easy to have it in the wrong way). Also make sure the blow back bolt linkage is not interfering with the upper and lower parts when putting together.
