We Scar L

[Macv276]

Did a search but couldn't find anything related to the issue I'm having

Recently acquired a WE Scar L. Went to zero my scope in today and... Well let's say it didn't go well. 

Out of a 30 round mag, 3 BBs hit the target. The rest casually rolled out of the barrel. ? 

The action cycles as it should. The nozzle isn't broken. The magazine shows no broken parts ect. 

Any ideas? preferably before this thing ends up in a river ?

Did you take it apart?

 

[Macv276]

It's been field stripped, yes.

Ripped/badly seated hop rubber?

Although it would have to be really knackered for BBs to just be rolling out of the barrel. Usually you would notice a drop in power range and inconsistent accuracy and FPS first.

It's been field stripped, yes. 

So you did not. Take it apart to a single piece, especially the bolt and hop up. You’ll find the problem easily.

That's why I asked if anyone had a suggestion what could be wrong before I pulled it apart, but thanks for being so helpful ?

We’re not magicians, no one will tell you what’s broken just because your gun is not firing properly. Take it apart, show us pictures and you’ll get the answer. No diagnosis can be done over the phone, same with humans, cars and airsoft toys. Also pulling airsoft gun apart is not a rocket science, so what’s keeping you from doing that?

Did you acquire it for a decent price? If so, that's why.

Agree with the above, intial strip down is needed to check all the parts, maybe if you stripped it, lubed the relevant bits, ensured the correct bits are intact and then it still behaved the same then ask for some random stabs in the dark.

I'm not asking for a magician, just to see if there was a common issue with this platform that would cause the issue before I started pulling apart a rifle I'm not familiar with. No need to behave like a condescending dick is there?

Not really no ?

It was stripped and lubed when I got it, I can't see anything funky when it's apart but have included some pics below, hopefully these will help somehow

Most likely hop rubber is worn/damaged.  I read somewhere that 75 degrees are best for GBBRs but you should research that.

If power is inconsistent you'll have to take the nozzle apart to check the valve.

Not the smartest move to call a dick someone who might help you. Now I won’t do that even for the money

I call it like I see it ?‍ plus, you have had nothing constructive to offer in this entire post.

Cheers, I'll take a look

Hard to offer a constructive advice to someone who says that something does not work but is too lazy to actually check first if internals are not fucked up. I might be wrong but you sound like someone born in the late 90s or later.

I wish I was born in the late 90's, cos then I'd be young & I'd know it all ?.

(Hold up, I think I just described my son lol)

You didn't offer any constructive advice. 

Are you this combative in real life or do you just behave like this when you're behind a keyboard in your parents basement? 

Nope, way off on my birth date (which is relevant why????) 

It's not a case of being too lazy, had you offered any helpful advice this issue could have been resolved much earlier. Look at the photos. See anything wrong? 

Also, instead of being condescending, don't assume everyone knows as much as (you think) you do. This is my only my second GBB rifle, I only came back to airsoft a few months ago, so logic would dictate that I wouldn't know what to look for, wouldn't it?

Back on topic, get the hop up out and check over the bucking. Nozzle to my eyes looks ok so on to the next component.

Your pictures show nothing. Get that thing out and apart.
