Mine was pretty damn stiff when it was new, but as is the nature of pins it wears looser pretty damn quickly if you tinker with the hop as much as i do. From the left if the muzzle is pointed toward you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDcase Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 I think left/right is always considered looking down sights. ie holding the weapon in the operating orientation. As said, mine is push from right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have it mostly out just need to get some pliers to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it sit under that small piece of metal they call the hop arm or does it replace it entirely? Part 009 for reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilMonkee Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 @Adolf HamsterMajor bumpage. I have got the hop unit back together and everything is in place but for some reason when I fire the slide lock engages after every shot - any ideas?

EvilMonkee Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Nope not ever seen a spring on that bit so I must be missing it - any chance you have a photo of the spring or the part number?

Supporters Adolf Hamster Posted October 28, 2020 Author Supporters Share Posted October 28, 2020 I'll try and grab a pic later. The spring is nested in the left side of the trigger unit, it shouldnt fall out unless you remove the whole thing. One end sits on the slide lock holds it down, so i'm assuming if its slipped off then the catch is jumping up when firing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilMonkee Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Had the chance to blast away in daylight with the new nub and I key yesterday - sending .3s a good 40m without the barrel extension (I can't find it). Gas efficiency still shit in this weather but overall a hell of an improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
