  1. I tried many different kind/brand of bbs without result, without this fix, I just can shoot one single bb.

     

    If you want some informations, I made a review

    I made a part about the reliability problem.

    I'm currently working on the reliability because until now, impossible to make the part 2 (shooting test) with a so bad quality gun :(

     

     

    Nice video, thanks!

  2. One of my magazine stops feeding at about half-way. Don't know why, if I remove the magazine and press on the small lever that keep the BBs inside it still let them out.

     

    I'm having the same issue. Did you manage to fix this?

    You don't have this issue with other mags? Good, then it's not a issue with the gun :)

  3. I've bought a lot of x300's over the years. From the early production batches through to the last production before they were discontinued by Surefire. I've never seen them with filled blades.

    ...

    Awesome info, thanks!

     

    A tiny bit of extra info: the fake X300 always has the serialnr.: A13168  :D

    I'm running a similar set-up and have problems with the Hogues not sitting flush with the frame on the left-hand side. Did you need to modify the frame or the grips to get them to sit right?

     

    I shaved a little bit of the screw-holes on the grip to made them a tad wider. And I had to leave out the '226E2-12' part (see attachment) because that prevented the left-grip from sitting tight on the frame. Everything works like a charm without that part anyway :)

  5. Funny thing, I have almost the same thing only reversed, when I try to put the barrel back on, the slightly different angle of the magazine tube blocks it from going further on.. When squeezing the magazine tube a bit closer to the barrel and then give a few decent taps on the front of the barrel makes it snap in to position..

     

    Maybe your magazine tube is also putting some pressure on the barrel. Try to pinch the 2 together (or separate them) a bit and see if the barrel moves..?

  6. I think I fixed the problem with my trigger.. I've replaced the trigger spring with a slightly weaker spring and now it functions like normal.

     

    I noticed that (with the original spring in place) the hammer would not disengage by half a milimeter(!) because of the tension of the spring. So I replaced it with weaker spring and now it seems to work. I'm not sure for how long but if it fails again I at least know where to look :)

     

    It does have a very long trigger-pull at this moment (fires at the very last mm of the trigger) so I might have to look for a better fitting spring..

  7. While having breakfast (with my shotgun, how much fun is that :D) I made a few pictures showing how the cradle arm and 'action bar lock'-arm are currently positioned:

     

    After pulling back on the action arm (hammer cocked/locked back):

    And I found out that if I place the 'action bar lock'-arm on the very end of the cradle arm, by pulling back the action arm slightly, the hammer is release when pulling the trigger:

    03.jpg
    The bold is not fully closed like this, it's about 3-4mm open. Once the hammer is release by pulling the trigger the bolt slams forward and close that last 3-4mm gap.


    After firing it looks like this (the action arm lock is disengaged.. ?) :

    I'll take out the trigger assembly tonight, and try to capture how it functions.

     

  8. Thank you very much for taking the time to share this! I'll go over every step when I get back from work, but I can already tell the trigger assembly looks like the 'top picture', so it's not resetting correctly ineed :)

    I'll report back later, hopefully with a working trigger :D

     

    Thanks again!

  9. Hi guys,

     

    So I've got my hands on a 870M but it has an issue :(
    I can return it to the shop under guarantee but I don't think it's a big issue:

    With a shell loaded (pull back & push forward on the action bar) and pulling the trigger it doesn't fire. The hammer is not released.

    Only when I hold the trigger in and press the action bar lock a bit, it fires..

     

    I've taken the trigger assembly out to check for any broken parts or something but it all looks in perfect shape..

    With the trigger assembly out of the 870 the same thing happens, the 'action bar lock' has to be pushed in a bit before the trigger releases the hammer. I've compared the trigger assembly with pictures of other 870 assemblies and all the parts seem to be in the right spot.

    Does anybody have any idea what could be wrong? It would be a shame to ship it back to the shop and wait for months before it returns :(

    Thanks!

     

    All the best,

    LJ
