is it making any noises? you need to explain your situation a lot more clearly.

i can hear the motor moving but the piston has no motion

i would take it back to AEX. I doubt they would have let it leave the shop without it firing.

ok.

were you playing with it then this happened? or did you walk in your door from picking it up and try to shoot it and this happened?

i just got it out of the box.

perhaps the spring is caught on something?

sounds like you need a 9.6v. my sportsline wouldn't fire an sp120 with an 8.4 but would with a 9.6

man just take it back to AEX before you screw something up.

you may have just voided the warranty by attempting to fix it yourself.

thats why i said to take it back :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

yup. you had most sound advice on the thread.

on a sidenote, i had a ca g3a3 that i had stuck an sp120 into. the 8.4v 1700 mah would not turn it. i tried a 9.6v 1700 and it worked. so i knew it wasn't the gearbox. i stuck an eg1000 in it, tried the 8.4v again and it worked.
