Scallene Posted April 5, 2015 Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 I appear to have a problem. When I am shooting the slide seems to not lock all the way forward after each shot and I need to manually push it forward. When the magazine is out it returns fine but when the magazine is in with or without bbs the slide will not return all the way on its own. Upon opening I saw that the nozzle in the bbu was not moving smoothly and was sticking. Has anyone had this problem or how would you recommend fixing it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Scallene Posted April 5, 2015 Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 I actually figured it out. The o-ring is to tight for some reason causing the gun to not slide easily. Going to look for a new O-ring soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Im going space Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 Alright, all you lovely folks with RMRs, anyone willing to sell the RIS base? I'm after one of the low profile ones. I do have a brand new QD base I can swap. Or just cash Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Strange, that they are installed. Usually they just in spare bag. I am looking forward to replace inserts with tritium, but need some tests with glue. Standard sughts inserts is s**t.

DeltaZero Posted June 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) For those that are having issues with parts etc I noticed that Tokyo-Model has some of the most likely to fail OEM parts in stock for the FNX. http://www.tokyo-model.com.hk/shop/index.php?main_page=advanced_search_result&search_in_description=1&zenid=d0589a5kmaalo8jh5ivt3cvl43&keyword=FNX&x=0&y=0 I am still really tempted by the black one too.

Im going space Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 turns out we have a gentlemans persuader at work. all out now. the holes are ~2mm so 1.5mm tritium vials and some heatshrink should work a treat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rusTORK Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Yeah, if your use only glass tritium tubes, need rubber or silicon to cover and protect it. After that - glue it and trick is done. I was lucky and got tactical tritium inserts from Trigalight. They are in aluminum tube and have sapphire glass. My problem with it now - i don't understand how to apply silicon glue all around tube or at least at four points (left, right, top and bottom). After that need to do white o-ring around glass...

Wingmann Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 I actually figured it out. The o-ring is to tight for some reason causing the gun to not slide easily. Going to look for a new O-ring soon. The o-ring has to have the best compression possible. Instead of installing one that doesn't compress properly, try lubing the one you have.

rusTORK Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 Where did you guys get your inserts? I just sent an e-mail to exclusive representative of Trigalight in Russia and told them what i need inserts for and they agree to sell me a few. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
