Feels like my TM M4 is jammed...

POLSKAPAT · February 4th, 2008, 15:43

I was fired some rounds and playing with the hop up and then, there was a jam. So I removed the clip and several bbs came came. I tried to shoot without any rounds and the gun doesnt fire.
More like it can't.. I feel the motor moving, but feels like something is stopping it. Theres no grinding noise just more of a little "Tuck"

I removed my motor, spins fine. Theres nothing jammed in my barrel...

What do i do?

Did you take a look at the little screw that holds the Pinion gear onto the motors axel? If thats loose the axle could be spinning arround in the Pinion gear.

Most likely the gears/piston are jammed up. Are you comfortable with opening your gun to look at the mechbox? If so, the piston might be in the rear position, where it shouldn't be. All you should be able to see is the spring and spring guide through the opening in the mechbox.

The other thing to try is to charge your battery up again. It seems obvious, but my S-system was having a problem that sounds eerily familiar. Try it out and see if that works.

Try it with a new battery.

This sounds oddly like a noobish mistake I made a long time ago. Scared the hell out of me though..
