Magazine troubles

Apr 4, 2008 10:34pm
So, I purchased a set of eight 100round mags, and I loaded one up and the bbs will not feed into the weapon from the magazine. I thought it just might be that one, so I loaded bbs into my mag that came with my TM M4 and they wouldn't feed either. Now, I only loaded about five rounds each time, am I doing some wrong, should I load more into it, or is there a problem with the rifle?

Check your tappet plate. Turn your gun upside down without a magazine and fire it a few times to see if the nozzle moves with each shot.

I can see inside the hole, where the bbs feed, that something is moving.

I cant help you any further than that since i dont have the gun in front of me. Try taking it into the shop with the magazines. Perhaps one of them can take the look at it and located the problem.

Yeah, about to do that. Need to get a rifle bag anyone, box doesn't fit with the Red Dot and Handgrip on it now.

I would recommend loading the mags to max capacity, and then letting the bbs out, repeat a few times.

Yeah, problem fixed itself, just needed to put more bbs into the rifle.
