KSC Auto Glock - Releasing Gas

mirage13 · August 14th, 2006, 13:09

Ok, this KSC G26C is giving me an ulcer...

I replaced the worn-looking hammer assembly with one from a near-mint KSC G18C, but left the metal slide and barrel installed. Full auto worked most of the time, and semi usually just instantly released all the gas.

I've now reverted back to completely stock form.

Now the gun doesn't fire on full auto at all... The first trigger pull releases all the gas. On semi, it will fire off 1-10 shots, and then release all the gas.

I have done as CDN_Stalker suggested in other posts regarding the same issue, and added light silicon oil to the hammer assembly (as well as other places). I have even removed, disassembled, cleaned, oiled, then reassembled the hammer assembly (again).

I have tried two different G19 magazines, both with stock valves, and one G19 mag with a KM Hi-Flow Valve. All result in the same thing.

My rocket/floating valve is intact.

The only parts that seem to have any significant wear on them are:
Part #'s 260+261, and also the top of #265.

Part #253 and the top of part #92 (which are in conjunction with that parts lists above) seem to be in perfect condition.

Can anyone please give some insight as to why is this happening?

Check the small screw underneath the rear sight that holds the blowback chamber in. I had to loctite mine in because it kept unscrewing itself, which cause my gun to release all the gas in the magazine.

Check the Valve Stopper, there was a problem with the TM G26 series and they made an aftermarket one to replace it (it forms hairline cracks that unless you take it out to look you will never see.

If you cant find a replacement one on WGC or UNc, search for it under the P226 they are the same part as per Arnies. Although I'm not sure if KSC version is the same as the TM ones...
*edit - Illusion has 2 in stock on his parts page.

KSC glocks don't use a part like that. KSC glocks just use a pin for the same purpose.

Well, I sold this gun to section5.

I'm sure he'll fix it... From what I'm sensing, he's got a nice load of Glock parts lying around

Maybe when/if he figures out what the problem is, he'll post the solution here, so that not only can I finally find out what the root of all this was, but so that future frustrated autoglock owners will know what to do if this happens to them.

Thanks for the input you guys, and best of luck section5.
