[onion]

Hi people ,

just brought a tokyo marui mp5k pdw

is a amazing gun, but has a little problem sometimes , it will fire in full auto fine ... and if you go from full auto to semi it it normally fine , but sometimes in semi it just wont fire , i think it is a selector problem as sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt ?

please let me no what you think , and were to get it fixed

thanks

You best bet would be to e-mail the company you bought it from and ask them how to fix it or return it if it is still under warranty.

i brought second hand ..

I had a similar problem with my MP5A4. I just removed the motor, selector switch etc and partially removed the grip so that the piece that moves the selector was out. Next, I pushed the plate on the gearbox all the way forward (to safety) and turned the piece to safety position. Then put it all back and it was fine.

cheers il have a go , do you think a good retailer would be able to fix ?

Yeah most rettailers have a tech guy who will be happy to fix it. If your not very good at that sort of thing it could save you alot of money, but if you think your up to the job go for it!

MP5K = PDW / Close range = Full auto,

save yourself the money its a common problem with V2/3 GB's

I shouldn't imagine you will need semi a lot with a weapon like that

 

[Mitchell Gee]

like matt said, youd be better off full auto since it a CQB gun, saves alot of time and money...

[fair enoug hpoint , but i would rather have it working as it should , i cant imagine it will cost alot ?

 

[Deva]

Depends what specifically is wrong with it and if parts are needed. Ask for an estimate before you hand it over for good.

yeah , im going to take it skirmishing on sunday , the guys there no a fair bit so il let them have a look over it and give me a estamate cheers

 

[MZKaleem]

also some CQB sites are Semi only so it would be good to have it

 

[G-Force]

Yeah good point I went to the labs and it was semi only. Best to get it fixed you never know when it will come in handy.

 

[MZKaleem]
