AEG troubles. Shoots only couple feet.

so i broke my airsoft M16 shitty panther carbine from wallmart thought id try to fix er.it only shoots a few feet every 30 rounds or so i get a good shot. i opened the gun up and upon inspection of the piston the rubber ring was a little bent out of shape.is this the cause? any other ideas?
ps the frame is a little cracked, need to do a few repairs with jb weld or something, and also the handle screws that keep the motor in is broken, so i have to hold the motor in while i fire.

heres a video showing it

In all seriousness; it's not worth the time to repair. It's time to go on to bigger and better things.

I left a comment on your video on how to free your gearbox from the receiver, but other options for airsoft are out there.

Get AV'd and get a decent rifle, something that's actually worth the time investment on repairs and upgrades.

Looks like your motor is your problem, it's not being held in anymore..

Why would you wanna downgrade the battery?
If the 7.2 has enogh power to pull the spring then its fine but itll have a lower rate of fire and slower trigger response.

@BennyBoy
motor is not the problem. i can hold it in and it will work. i think the problem lies in the piston

8.4 will work, 7.2 is going to be extremely slow

so it will go slow but just to be clear it wont cause any damage internally? like a short or shooting the motor?

might wear a bit more on the motor, and your batteries aren't going to last more than 400 rounds or so, assuming it even turns the mechbox over. And I'm pretty sure it won't be able to cycle the mechbox if the piston ends up half way back after full auto.
Everyone here runs a 9.6 mini on a stock gun. Don't worry about it breaking, cause it's gonna break no matter what you do.
Don't dry fire, don't keep firing when there's a BB jammed in the barrel, don't keep pulling the trigger when there's something obvious wrong with the mechbox, and don't fire full auto in long bursts. That'll minimize the chances of you breaking the gun
