Loss of power in my kjw g32c. What's wrong???
Recently I have noticed a drop in fps in my GBB pistol. Strews out around 300fps it's down to 240-250fps now. What might be wrong and how can I get the fps back to the original point?
Nothing is obviously broken. I took it apart last night and everything in the pistol looks fine. Could the issue be with the mags? Could it just be from wear and tear? If that's the case what part should be replaced to get the fps back to normal? Any info would be helpful as I don't know GBBs very well. Thanks in advance Hale

Sounds like you just discovered the effect that cold has on gas guns. Am I close?

Guess I should have also stated that all recent tests have been done inside and under optimal tempuratures. So I am 100% sure that the weather is a factor lol

Its a kjw Dave....duh. lol I have the same gun and it shot like 260 out of the box brand new. Check obvious things like your mag for one, check the hop up rubber as well. They are pretty simple guns, not many pieces.

Well the gun is less then a year old. I took it all apart and checked everythin u guys mentiond. Hop looks ok. No cracks and not dry. Mags look good too the gas port at the top looks fine. Guess that it's just the way it is. Too bad on the slight loss of power tho. Still shoots ok. But I would like that little extra kick. Then again it's a side arm and used for short range and in situations where a primary just won't do.
Thanks for all your help and info guys. Much appretiated.

Have you tried holding the mag up into the pistol grip? Sometimes the mag catch worns and causes the mag to sit lower, allowing gas to spit out between the nozzle and mag port.
