We Tech Mp5sd Apache GBBR Issue

[Jriski]

I just recently acquired a We TECH MP5SD Apache! Its lovely and everything but I have noticed that the bolt does not catch after the magazine is out of rounds. So it continuously dry fires after out of ammunition. I do not think its a issue with the magazine because it does this with all 4 magazine I have. If I could get some help that would be a tremendous help, thanks!

Okay so the bolt shouldn't hold open but it should stop after the last round.

There is a little tab on the top left that you need to pull to the rear. If it is sticking straight up it disables the bolt stop on the mag to allow dry fire, but when to the rear the mag follower will trigger the bolt stop

Does the bolt lock back when you hold the magazine further up into the gun?

No the MP5 bolt should not lock back but it should fire the last round and then not cycle again

As already mentioned the MP5 should not lock back on the last round, In fact the real steel version doesn't do this either so that is no problem.

 

On firing the last round (provided you haven't locked the dry fire button on the magazine down) you should get a 'deadmans click' as the trigger fires, but the weapon doesn't cycle (exactly what you get on a real mp5 when the hammer falls on an empty chamber).

 

I you are not getting this and the MP5 continues to fire on an empty mag (and you have checked the magazines are not locked in dryfire mode and the magazine is working as it should and the catch at the rear flicks up when the last round is removed) then you probably need a new "part 31". https://www.kyairsoft.com/parts/we-smg-gbbr/apache-series/apache-series/we-apache-long-31-gbbr.html. It is a very thin part that moves the valve knocker up when the mag is empty so it doesn't hit the magazine output valve.

 

I ordered one from KY and had it in a week. It was a doddle to fit and immediately solved my issue.

I figured out the issue and it was not with the magazine. It was with the silver piece next to the firing pin(?). It completely sheered off.
