Buttons Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Because if the hippies have taught us anything, it's that we should give peace a chance. And if that doesn't work, sue people. And sueing brings in money. Fighting costs money. And as everyone knows, money makes the world go round. It's also the root of all evil, therefore the world going round is evil, and we should therefore stop the rotation of the planet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Buttons Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Irrelevant? Okay yeah. Â So question... Yesterday mine was coughing sort of... It'd cycle normally but about every 3rd shot the BB would arc terribly rather than with the normal goodness of the hop up... Ideas? Pants? Tactical Nuclear weapons?

Shao14 Posted August 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Low on gas, maybe? The BBs lost punch on the last 4 or 5 shots before the gas runs out on mine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Buttons Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 No, it was full of gas and I mean it'd fire 2 good shots, then one arcing one, then 2 good shots, and again one arcing one, and so on. Sort of wierd... Only things I can think of are A) It was quite warm, and by the third shot cylinder and cooled a bit thus losing a bit of punch (unlikely) or B. the feed tube isn't sitting quite right and pushing BBs firmly into their respective chambers... (The feed tube was kind of removed forcfully when OpFor closed a door on my hand...)... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shao14 Posted August 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Well, I would visually inspect the rubber bucking in the front of the cylinder, and manually load only 6 rounds in the cylinder, and use a dry erasable marker to mark the cylinder, and shoot two rounds to see if the arcing BB occur at the same cylinder slot or at all. If the arcing doesn't occur, then the problem is with the loading tube, and if the arcing occur all at the same cylinder slot, then it may be that bucking is deformed. If arcing occurs randomly, then maybe the hop up is bad, and strip the gun to inspect the hop up rubber. that's all I can think of right now. Of course, you would use good quality BBs all this time.

Buttons Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Good quality BBs? OMG I've been using ones off the floor!!!1! Â (Okay thats a lie... They're Airsoft Elite .25 Blacks.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Prometheus Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 It sounds like you have a problem...  Possible things that have gone wrong. I'm not too familiar with the SAA yet, but here is my guesses.  1) Hop up is loose 2) Misaligned cylinder 3) build up in barrel of crud  Also, it could be a user thing like you might not be holding the gun straight on the third shot because of fatigue or you are just pulling the trigger too rapidly.  ~P Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sledge Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 I have no idea on the above problem, but I do have a new camera: Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Very nice! How's your spinning skills now? Edited August 5, 2005 by Shao14 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Buttons Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 The cylinder looks real glossy compared to the frame, is it that way IRL? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sledge Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Left handed, I'm pretty damn good, if I do say so myself. Right handed, not so good, but I'm a leftie so it's to be expected. Hmm, maybe this camera has video facilities...? Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shao14 Posted August 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Which camera you got? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sledge Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Um... *Reads manual* Vivitar 5 mega pixel thingie. Looks like it's got video capture, so I'll have a play over the weekend. Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tripod Posted August 6, 2005 Report Share Posted August 6, 2005 Wow, I just shot one of my SAAs (yes I have 2) and it shot better than ever. I think they're very picky on which BBs you use. With these Jungle Toy .28g BBs, every 3 or so shots will go up after about 15ft. With green and .3 Marushin Maxi, I hit a coke (ok beer...) can at 50ft, while it was on it's side. Â Man I love these revolvers. I'm thinking about getting a third and going Ocelot style ><. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Prometheus Posted August 6, 2005 Report Share Posted August 6, 2005 So is the silver a nonheavy weight? Â ~P Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sledge Posted August 6, 2005 Report Share Posted August 6, 2005 Damnit! Gonna have to go strip the lady down. There's something rattling sometimes, and on those times, the hammer doesn't rotate the cylinder. Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Prometheus Posted August 6, 2005 Report Share Posted August 6, 2005 Eww. Not good. Â Hey guys, I figured out today that I can't fann my M500. Well, I can, but only gas comes out because the hammer going back doens't turn the cylinder... Â DAMN! Â ~P Quote Link to post Share on other sites
snowman Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Yep, if you look at the exploded diagrams, you will see that the 'hand' is attached to the trigger on modern D/A revolvers (at least the S&Ws). Â Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
