G & G M16 just sprays bb's??

Skladfin · May 16th, 2009, 10:59

yup, that's what actually pushes down on the hop up rubber to create hop up.

Styrak · May 16th, 2009, 14:48

No, that o-ring is to keep the setting.

DethHead · May 16th, 2009, 15:09

well i just tried it out, hop up fully open, fully closed, and right in the middle

open: bb's fall out, dont fire
middle:get about 1 foot
closed: 5 feet

i put it together just as the instructions go, and nothing better.

so has anyone thought of the fact that he's missing the spring on the hop-up unit?

theshaneler · May 16th, 2009, 15:39

im thinking compression loss if they dont leave the barrel....

they leave the barrel with a real tight hopup, but they dont go anywhere than maybe a foot or two.

I'm with Saint here. That nub is supposed to be be flat across the top of the chamber, and not to the side. Either you installed the hopup sleeve or nub incorrectly.

DethHead · May 16th, 2009, 15:52

already reinstalled the hopup from scratch with skladfin's directions, looked identicle open and closed as directed.

I am having the same problem. I just changed my hop up for the first time and added a longer barrel but the bbs barely shoot 30 feet before they drop. Hop up is off. I did notice however though that I cannot see the hop up arm pushing down on the sleeve. Unless I push it down with my finger.

did you match your cylinder to your barrel? If not your gun isn't producing enough air to push the BB's out of the barrel.

As for the other problem, Your hop-up is assembled wrong.. take it apart, set everything nicely and re-assemble with care.

(while you're at it, wash your bucking in COLD water with dish-soap to remove some of that awful fish-grease that G&G uses)

hey, If you are signed up on the local edmonton forum (www.edmontonairsoft.net)

look for Flatlander or Samuel on the forums. they are providing gun doc services.

Skladfin · May 16th, 2009, 20:13

If you are willing to pay the shipping, send it to me, I will fix it up.

Right now it sounds like something's wrong with your gearbox(Hop up seems perfect).

DarkerWhite · May 20th, 2009, 19:30

As per your thread on the EAR board and what szetor said. Both Flatlander and Sam are local. One of them will figure it out.

Makes more sense to me to use a local doc, sorry no offense Skladfin.

mcguyver · May 20th, 2009, 19:53

I looked at one of these guns today exhibiting this same problem. The nozzle is inconsistant in it's movement, and sort of does it's own thing.

I remember a G&G UMP I looked at about 4 years ago, and the sector gear was shimmed so that it nearly bypassed the tappet. After awhile, it wore a groove in the tappet and totally bypassed it every time.

I would look inside the gearbox. I removed the hop-up from the gun I looked at, and other than the bullshit barrel clip that allowed the inner barrel to freely rotate however the hell it wants, there was no problem with the hop-up. The gun I saw had no spring on the hop-up chamber either.

DethHead · June 23rd, 2009, 01:48

well i haven't been able to get ahold of a gun doc to get my repair done, so im gonna attempt the gearbox.

how do i start?
