AEG always shooting up? [FIXED]
 

Hello,

i really tried to search hard for this problem but i've got nothing. I tried to fix my aeg's bolt catch so i did a lot of assembling and reassembling (without touching the gearbox though) it was shooting straight before but now,it keeps shooting upward. Even if i try to adjust the hop-up, it doesnt do much , i'm not getting back my straight shots. What i mean by "Shooting up" is that right out of the inner barrel, it goes up instead of going straight, out of the barrel. For example, from 1 meter, if i try to aim something directly, it will just keep shooting over it. Only if i adjust to the max , it will start jamming / not be able to shoot bb's (but when it was working, the bb's will drip out of the barrel if i adjust the hop-up too downwards)

It shoots perfectly, no jams or anything, not straight at all though. Feeds fine.

What possible parts are involved in this most likely?

EDIT [FIXED] :
thank you very much everyone for your fast replies. It was actually a stupid thing.

At the end of the inner barrel , there was a plastic ring holding the barrel tight so it does not move. The barrel was aiming down therefore always shooting up. The problem was that the ring got stucked with the flash hider, i removed the flash hider and the ring dropped in.

Thank you very much for your time and patience.
The gun is a VFC SR635 with the clear hop-up chamber.

I've never heard of something like this. Try disassembling you're hopup and seei if anything is broken.

always shooting up? Sounds like you need to send it to rehab bahhahhhhahahha


Seriously though I'm gonna go with bent barrel..

remove the bucking and give it a good clean. You can also use this time to inspect the hop up chamber's internals and see if anythings off. Sometimes the nub gets stuck down and has your hop up always up too high.

Remove the barrel with hopup unit. Look down the inner barrel and adjust hopup. If the nub extends and retracts when you adjust it, then it's likely not the hopup. Bent barrel is possible.

roll the barrel along a flat surface if it's bent you will know.

Did you at any point disassemble the hop up unit? If so you may have put the bucking in the wrong way.

1) I had a customer disassemble his KWA hopup and he lost the spring that makes it return to zero. He over hopped his gun and when he tried to reduce it the lack of spring stopped the hopup from backing off.

He brought the gun to me complaining that the gun was shooting too weak. I took the hopup apart, found the missing item and replaced it. gun worked perfectly after that.

If you lost that spring and put too much hop on your gun (i.e. it shoots Up) then it may be stuck there.

2) I have had guns shoot up every shot and it was usually the bb catching the flash hider on the way out. Or a burr at the end of the inner barrel.

thank you very much everyone for your fast replies. It was actually a stupid thing.

At the end of the inner barrel , there was a plastic ring holding the barrel tight inside the outer barrel. The barrel was aiming down because of the lack of support. therefore always shooting up. The problem was that the ring got stucked with the flash hider, i removed the flash hider and the ring dropped in.

Thank you everyone.
