ICS M4 Help

Ok, got my m4 today, traded for paintball stuff, all went well until i decided to open it up.....i got the top half of the gearbox off looked at afew of the internals for awhile. Then put back togeather..now it wont fire, the motor and gears all go fine but it seems it wont pull the spring back, any help?
I dont know if its my stupidity or the gun, iam leaning towards my fault haha :P

Make sure the flat section of the gear is facing up.

If you did not press the forward assist (in this case spring release) before removing the receiver, the gears won't be in the right position and your gun won't fire since it's locked out.

Open up the receiver and move the gears back to the proper position. You shouldn't have to take apart anything other than the pins holding the receiver together.

Something's not lined up right and binding when you close up the gearbox. Youtube some take down videos and have a look.

Watch some video's about opening up ICS gearboxes and standard gearboxes in general before you attempt it. Its not opening it up that is hard, its putting it back together properly that can be a real bitch if you are inexperienced.
