Supporters Adolf Hamster Posted May 26, 2018 Supporters Share Posted May 26, 2018 bit of a puzzler this, i have a kwa (kwc? cant remember, it's one of the anniversary ones) co2 1911 thing is, it seems to be dumping full auto when fired, and keeps going even after you let go of the trigger. it doesn't seem to feed after the first couple of shots either as despite the ludicrous rate of fire there's ammo left in the mag. i initially suspected the leaf spring in the trigger assembly but manually cycling the action it works fine, pull trigger, hammer drops, rack slide, hammer stays back until trigger is released and re-pressed. normally it goes with a fresh capsule and a full mag: 1st couple of shots double tap 3rd or 4th shot starts full auto cycle it'll keep firing (regardless of what you do with the trigger) until it's out of gas or you drop the mag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Prisce Posted May 27, 2018 Supporters Share Posted May 27, 2018 Paging Doctor @rocketdogbert. In my very limited experience with GBB pistols I had a similar fault with a WE Glock, it turned out to be the trigger sear. Your best bet is to type into google the make/model of gun and the problem and look for a YouTube video with the same fault and then look for the fix. The glock fault was easy to fix, you removed the sear, filed a tiny bit off and put it back together and it worked perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 I’m with @Prisce almost certainly the sear, but I’ve never dismantled a 1911, so don’t know the specifics, sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Adolf Hamster Posted May 27, 2018 Author Supporters Share Posted May 27, 2018 I've checked the gas action and everything seems kosher, no missing spots for o rings that i can find. I'll strip it further and see what the sear looks like, although the trigger pull feels normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Adolf Hamster Posted May 27, 2018 Author Supporters Share Posted May 27, 2018 good call on the sear. whilst the main sear was fine, the half-cock sear was worn to the point it wasn't engaging, 10 minutes with a file and it's back on form, and the trigger pull feels better than original to boot.

Marc.RG1 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Yeah I would have said sear worn sear if the leaf spring is fine, Nice one on sorting it.. If it's a kwc 1911 you have two choices for for parts, either contact kwc directly quoting the part number, they will then quote you a price, but be warned they like over charging.. Or you can buy a elite force hammer rebuild kit from places like evike.. ATB Marc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
