oddjob Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 hi all i got the gun a few months ago and was impressed with it. i thought i would get another mag for in and i have found that the new mag doesn't lock back when it is empty. i thought it was the gun so i tried the original one and that works fine. i cant see a difference between the 2 mags. any ideas or is it a take it back job? thanks
Adam3088 Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Did you completely fill the mag with gas when testing it? Could be the last shot didn't fully cycle the slide due to low pressure, tried filling it up and then dry firing it?
oddjob Posted November 9, 2015 Author Posted November 9, 2015 Yep filled all the way and ran it empty still the same problem
Hudson Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 Are both mags the same make? Does it lock back if you hold the mag into the pistol whilst firing? I have the same problem with my TM G17, but one mag is a different brand & doesn't seat exactly the same as the TM mag.
Supporters Airsoft-Ed Posted November 9, 2015 Supporters Posted November 9, 2015 lt's the follower in the mag that catches the tab to hold the slide so is there any damage to that?
TheGrover Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 Look on the left side of the mags. There is a little window where the follower (the part that pushes the bbs) can push up the mag catch when there is no BB in the mag.
oddjob Posted November 11, 2015 Author Posted November 11, 2015 Looking at the new make I can't see any this wrong They are the same make I have came across that if I push the bottom of the mag in the gun away from me It locks back
Mtemprell Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 I had same problem. Found that the spring wasnt strong enough to push slide lock up. Just had the spray out the spring a little and works 100% now. oddjob 1
