CzechMeOut Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 I have a couple of ASG 40mm shower shells that both aren't releasing their gas fully in one go, as the video shows. They did used to work (over a year ago probably) and I've tested on a couple of different launchers along with making the firing pins way longer than they need to be. I'm assuming being left in a box with no maintenance has possibly caused some lubricant to gunk up? I've looked around but I can't find any info on this problem, just gas leaks. Before I take them apart, has anyone ran into this problem before? Thanks! 20240427_122754.mp4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanBow Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Ive no idea but my first thought is a sticky valve. I reckon a strip, clean and oil will sort it. Cannonfodder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannonfodder Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 As above. Most issues with 40mm grenades can be sorted this way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CzechMeOut Posted April 27 Author Share Posted April 27 Hello, So I seem to have solved this. I had everything greased up but after stripping, cleaning everything off and only greasing the 2 o-rings on the plunger (that also holds the ball bearings) the grenades are now firing with a big singular bang!
