I'm happy to share that after dealing with an atrocious overhop issue, I finally got my MWS shooting straight! I think the main issue was within the hop adjuster unit. The spring that put tension on the hop dial was not tough enough to keep it from turning, so vibrations from firing the gun or releasing the bolt catch would cause the dial to turn by itself. I bought the adjustment unit made by Guns Modify, which had a much tougher spring. I kept the original dial installed, as the aftermarket one was not cut out enough to apply enough hop. Though it is much more difficult to turn the dial, it keeps a zero pretty effiently. I'm not sure if anyone else has run into this issue, as mine might have been a defect. Nevertheless I an proud to bring this beauty on to the field.

So I have been doing some experimenting wit the MWS ever since I ran into my overhop issue. For those who don't know, essentially while firing, something is causing the hop dial to turn back, applying drastic amounts of hop with each shot. For reference, I use 0.32 g BB's and propane. The following is a list of upgrade parts I have installed: - G&P Roller Bolt (replaces the stock end piece on the bolt carrier for one with bearings) - SixG super nub - SixG high speed buffer - Modify tan bucking Of all these parts, the only one I could see affecting the hop dial might be the roller bolt, as it could have misaligned the bolt carrier and cause it to interfere with the hop dial. Aside from the nub and bucking, I removed the upgrade parts and reinstalled the stock ones. This did not solve any issues. When testing it out, I set the dial back by 14 clicks (out of the approximately 21 clicks the dial can move). Inserting a new magazine and charging it, within 5 shots do the BB's begin to overhop. I remove the magazine, and observe that the dial is mostly, if not all the way turned to maximum hop. After resetting the dial to 14, the rest of the magazine fires consistently, sometimes with an added click or two of the dial. After the magazine finishes, a new one is inserted, and the bolt release is pressed. Then again, within 5 shots does the dial get pushed back. This leads me to believe that whatever manual input of loading a round (charging the bolt/pressing the release lever) leads to the dial being forced back. Honestly I'm dumbfounded as to what is causing this issue. I've tried removing the hop adjuster and retightening the dial screw. It's seated perfectly fine in the upper receiver as well. If I get desperate enough I may just fill part of the dial cavity with epoxy to create a "hard stop" for the hop up. Either that or try switching it out with the one Guns Modify makes, but I'm not sure what else I could do. If anyone has any suggestions or similar experiences, please let me know.

Yes. Starting with the hop all the way off, I apply it by 8 clicks of the dial. After shooting about a magazine and a half, I would readjust the hopup. This is where I noticed that when I try to set it back to zero, it takes more than 8 clicks to return the hopup to all the way off. @ajumma The bolt is completely stock. The only parts changed in the gun are the hopup nub, bucking, and an added high speed buffer.

Hello, I have been experiencing an frustrating phenomenon with my MWS. Recently I installed the SixG hopup nub along with a Modify tan bucking. It lifts BBs like a dream. However, I noticed the more I fired the gun, more and more hop was being applied to each shot. When I would readjust the hop dial, I noticed it would be set a lot higher than I initially did. I'm not quite sure what is causing the dial to turn on its own. My guess was the action of the bolt carrier moving back and forth. But when racking it manually, I saw no change in the dial's position. Has anyone else experienced this? For reference, I'm using using .32 gram BBs and propane, with the only modifications being the bucking, nub, and the SixG high speed buffer.
