hopup problem?

willy · February 19th, 2008, 20:52

ok guys, my tm g36 is having problems

my gun wont actually fire any bb's. by just placing the bb infront of the hopup and shooting, none of the bb's will pass through the hopup and go into the barrle, i have the hopup turned completly off......

any thoughts?

thanks for your time guys

Unload gun fully, turn upside down in your lap. Aim a few drop s of slilly oil into the loading tube the mag passes BBs through to the breech. Dry fire a half dozen times to distribute the oil, then run a few mags through it.

Typical "Not knowing how to maintain an AEG properly" problem, but funny enough, everyone who claims a tightbore jams too much in an AEG, 99.999% is because of not putting oil into the breech every 1000 shots or so. Not saying you have a tightbore, but improper maintainance breeds pretty ignorant myths about tightbores (when installed).

Get some oil in there and report back to us.

im missing the ruber piece on my hopup unit, it is not geting and airtight seal , thus isnt blowing (forlackofbetterterm) the bb's down the chamber i am going to replace the hopup..

thanks for the tip though ill be sure to oil my gun more regularly

any tips about rust ?

that rubber peice is your hop up bucking, if thats all your missing then you can just replace that peice, that peice is what creates your hop up. its a 10 dollar peice that'll more time and money then getting a whole new hop up unit.

also, where and what is rusted?

my h&K g36 K conversion kit, mainly the metal on the barrle and on the drop down bi- pod ....

and oh yes, i definitly plan to replace the whole hop-up unit
