griniding noise when trying to fire TM g36

[jakmoon]

As in title realy, i have tryed it twice and i get this nasty grinding noise when trying to fire my gun, i presume it the gearbox...... but HELP

Scratch that. Same prob once. Motor for sure.

 

[Rock-climby-Dave]

motor height, almost definatly

on the base of the pistol grip, there is a small screw (allen head, flat head or philips) if it is loose tighten it untill the griding stops and normal firing resumes, if it is really far in, loosen it off a bit

(it is more likely to be loose)

 

[jakmoon]

Ill try that first, if it is gearbox or piston would it be worth getting a new spring put in at the same time? as i want to upgrade that anyway

 

[Rock-climby-Dave]

if you are going into the 'box, you may aswell.

 

[jakmoon]

Is it pritty straight foward changing parts? Or would it be best left to somone who knows?

 

[Rock-climby-Dave]

opening it up and changing bits is very simple. an ape could do it.

getting it all together again is considerably harder and probably worth getting someone who knows how to do it properly.

Wise advice from Dave. I took my TM Aug apart to try and work out what was wrong with it and why it wasn't working...

I've still not managed to get it back together again!

 

[jakmoon]

Right guys thanks for the advice thus far, when i get round to it ill try the motor hight first and get back to you

Thanks

right i had a look at my gun the other day, and it seem this screw (motor height screw) seems to be missing.... guess i have found my problem here... any ideas where i can get a replacement screw from? should my local airsoft store supply them?

 

[Rock-climby-Dave]

local airsoft store or even take the lower part (for the love of god not th whole gun) to a local DIY store and ask for a grub screw to fit that *point at the hole*

IIRC they are 1.5mm usually

a local airsoft shop is probably the best place to start

 

[jakmoon]

(for the love of god not th whole gun)

yeah.. oi you have you got a screw to fit THIS (pulls out gun)

that could get intresting

would it say any where on the TM website... if there is one? like is there a section for gun specs/blue prints?

 

[Rock-climby-Dave]

I can't recall seeing anything on the website, but then it is a large siten and i last looked quite a while ago.

There definatly IS a website for you to look at though
