Marui Sig p226 problems

vam907 · September 9th, 2007, 14:03

Hey, for some reason I can't post in the gun problem section so i might as well say it here...

I'm having problems with my Marui Sig p226. I've had it for about two years and run it on propane. Every time i fire it now, the bbs drop to the ground about a meter away, after leaving the barrel. Sometimes, even two bbs will fire out with one trigger pull and do this. I've tried adjusting the hop up and looking inside, but I don't know what's wrong and don't know much about repairing airsoft guns.

Anyone have an idea of whats wrong? or have the same problem?........Thanks.

also clean the blowback chamber if it doesnt fix it

When you fire, is there an excessive amount of gas blowing out of the slide? It sounds to me like your blowback chamber is possibly blown, regarding the firing characteristics.

Today i tried just one bb in the mag and it worked fine........if i have more than one bb, the gun does what i said earlier

Check the loading nub on the nozzle isn't broken off.

I had this problem with my KSC g34 and TM Hi-Capa 5.1,
For me, it was caused by excess oil on the hop-up rubber which causes bb's to slide past it when chambered too hard.

the thing that worked for me was:

taking the gun apart and cleaning everything, (be careful not to rip the hop-up rubber when removing it)

soak the hopup rubber in water with dish-water detergent,

lube everything EXCEPT the hopup,

put gun back together.

See if that works.
