JG G36 Trigger slipping
Hey, I recently got my first airsoft gun, the JG G36C, and opened up the gearbox to put in metal bushings and a systema spring guide.
Well I got the parts on there after a bit of difficulty (especially the trigger assembly, which kept flying all over the place and refused to stay down without decent pressure). After putting the gear box together though, I noticed the trigger was sticking and generally felt very weird when I pulled it, so I pushed the selector plate out of the way to see what was going on, and it seems like the rear of the assembly (the part that swivels on the trigger itself and pushed the plastic piece to complete the circuit) kept going under that plastic piece instead of pushing it. I have marked up a pic I found online to give a more detailed idea of whats going on: Does anyone know why it's doing that? Is this common? Please help I'm very desperate and afraid that I'm going to need a new mechbox. Thanks |

Manually rotate the gears and try again.
It is supposed to do so when the gun has fired a shot in semi. It is the mechanism that disengages the trigger unit and stops the gun from shooting a second BB. If it still does it when you have moved the sector gear, then you will have to replace the trigger unit. It can become damaged if you forced it closed when the cut-off was engaged. |

well the cutoff lever isn't engaged or even slightly tilted. Also, when you say the trigger unit has to be replaced, do you mean the actual trigger and the metal piece that swivels on it or the switch?

The tan/beige plastic part (switch)
It cost about 25$ and usually comes with a full wire set and plugs (I got the Action one and I am quite happy, even if I re-wired it completely, the stock wires are acceptable, plus it comes with both a mini-plug SET (male and female) and a Dean's Ultra set) |

I dont understand how it could've worn down so quickly though, I've had the gun for 10 days, and I've put 200 rounds through it.
EDIT: One of my friends suggested using JB weld to "rebuild" the worn down face of the switch that the trigger latches onto. Is this viable or not? Last edited by ptpatil; December 12th, 2008 at 17:39.. |

Nope.
I have yet to find any adesive that can stick to that kind of plastic. And for the price, just change the whole thing. It can be damaged if the gears/selector was at the wrong spot when re-asslembly, or if the trigger was not seated correctly. If you have some jams and kept pressing the trigger, the plastic can have heaten and became weaker... causing premature wear. Too many things possible. Just change it. |

OK, thanks for the help, any place where I can find just the switch part or do I have to buy the whole wiring harness?
