Getting a JG Bar 10 gen2

Heh Heh wish the pound was stronger

Looking for a cheapish scope, is this a good one? http://www.jsramsbottom.com/products/nsmm3950ao-nikko-stirling-mountmaster-3-9x50-px-adj--riflescope-with-mounts.html

Best thing with a scope is to pop in to a shop and try several out, you want a scope that has an eye relief that suits your gun. Also the scope mounts on that won't fit an airsoft gun.

And 50mm is stupidly huge.

Ordered one of these http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B009QX1P06?ref_=pd_hud_ysh_orders

 

[elrasho]

It arrived today but not working. When I cock it and press the trigger nothing happens but BBs are getting stuck in the barrel

 

[PT247]

Is the safety off?

 

[PT247]

Does it shoot without BBs?

 

[PT247]

Is the hop wound on fully?

 

[elrasho]

Safety is off, it desont shoot without BBs and Hop is totally off

 

[elrasho]

Took it apart and cocked it. The first image shows the trigger unit NOT cocked:



As you can see that pin at the front is at the top. Now when I've pulled the cock back it moves here:



Then when I move the cocking handle back to its original place the pin moves back to how it was in the first picture. Is that the fault?

 

[PT247]

Am assuming you are pulling it back fully?

What could be happening is the trigger guard may need tightening slightly as that holds the peg in to the spring guide

 

[elrasho]

Yep all the way back until it stops, then I keep my hand on the handle and let it moves back into position. I feel a click just about when it going back into its neutral position. I've tightened the trigger gaurd screw to no avail.

 

[PT247]

When you pull it back is it as stiff to pull as when you push it forward?

 

[elrasho]

It's stiffer pulling back, once pulled all the way back it's much easier for it to go back into the neutral position. In fact if I let go it goes back all by itself.

I have a feeling it's something in the trigger box, when I press the trigger it seems really lose. And I hear a squeaking noise.

 

[PT247]

Sounds like the sear that grabs the piston isn't catching it. Which implies to me that the trigger block needs tightening at the front.... May need loosening slightly at the rear first

 

[elrasho]

Ok will try that tomorrow. Shame it doesn't work out of the box, bit of a let down.

 

[elrasho]

I put it back to gether again and it fires! However when I've cocked the handle back I have to jiggle it about for it to go back in. Something it catching......

 

[PT247]

(hate to say "shouldagottaTM" lol)

Does anything look like the culprit or random catching?

 

[elrasho]

I'll dissmantle it and put it together again, but cant see anything obvious. I got the JG bevcasue alot of reviews said they buiild quality is actually pretty good.
