Good evening to the pew pew collective, I am new to the sport as my son wanted to start it up, so i purchased a second hand WE p226 from forum classifieds as that was the model he liked. Bu it has never really worked properly it either uses all the gas before the mag is empty or after a few rounds it vents all its gas ? it was taken to a local shop and they swapped over things from a new gun to see if it cured it but was the same (all for free, nice guys )they came to the conclusion that it was the mags that came with it so bought one, it tried at home it seemed better but after two try's went back to same issue (after buying  new gas valves for old mags still did it as well). (have tried stronger gas) 

He then lost interest and didn't want to go and play . Now taken gun apart completely have found striker sear has a broken pin nozzle return spring is deformed but it still springs back, the bit of plastic that keeps nozzle valve and spring in hadn't been held in place by the screw (done that now)rebuilt it but its still the same if not worse ?Lol been all over it again everything back in its right place, buying a new one will fix issue but will not learn what could be causing it ?  I can get some of the springs and striker sear and nozzle but what say you all for the first time arm chair diagnostics ? Waiting in anticipation for any help given !! regards Old but not obsolete.
