fullmetalxero Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 i just got my ARMY MEU a few days ago and im happy with it besides a few things: first, the magazine release engages very slightly while firing so after every shot, the magazine falls out a little but is still in the gun, protruding out a couple centimeters. now the gun cant fire unless i push the magazine back in. or i could hold the bottom of the magazine or the right side of the mag release down while firing but i'd rather not do that in the middle of a firefight. second, filling the magazine is a pain. im a little new to gas guns but i guess somethings wrong with the fill valve? every time i fill the magazine, freezing propane spurts out everywhere and i cant tell when i should stop filling it. the mag shoots out all of its shots and locks back, but its just really annoying. it could be that my plastic propane adapter warped but i doubt that because i can fill my WE magazines just fine. do i need to buy a new valve?

DarkLite Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Check that the magazine catch isn't damaged, and that the spring holding it in position is in the correct position. Link to post Share on other sites
fullmetalxero Posted May 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 just checked it, it looks fine to me besides a little excess gunk i wiped off. something from the motion of the blowback engages it somehow but im not sure what... Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Happens also on many CA and Bell 1911's. Happened even on a KWA NS2 1911. The spring went lame so had to stretch them out again. This is a quick fix mind you and its likely to happen again in time so replacing it would be much better. Link to post Share on other sites
