LazzurusMan Posted September 19, 2024 Posted September 19, 2024 So a while ago I customised a maple leaf hop unit to fit my asg hi capa, and it ran beautifully and was accurate at decent range. Recently its struggled to get past half a joule at chrono so it's rather pathetic and can't hit a target about 10 meters away. Anyone got any idea what could be causing the issue? I run it on co2, so the power should be up near the limits.
Galvatron Posted September 19, 2024 Posted September 19, 2024 Seeing that this mod was done a while ago, my first thought is that general wear and tear, especially with CO2, may have compromised a seal whether it's your hop unit, the hop rubber or your nozzle, possibly a combination of them.

Hop rubber has been changed and hop unit checked and cleaned. It could be my nozzle, but then it's a new pistol ad I don't think I can get spares for it.
Galvatron Posted September 20, 2024 Posted September 20, 2024 It depends on whether the nozzle is a clone of an existing Hi-Capa OEM, a close enough match or if they're ASG's proprietary design without compatibility.

So I noticed something today during testing. It's not loading bbs anymore. It's pushing them down rather than into the chamber, so it's definitely a nozzle issue at this point, or at least there is a nozzle issue, that could be causing both problems. I'll see if a marui style one fits and go from there I guess.
Wild_XIII Posted September 20, 2024 Posted September 20, 2024 Looking at it online it looks like it should take regular hi capa nozzles. It's not got any fancy RMR cuts or anything and I believe Army is the OEM making them.

But NOW it's getting caught on the hammer after every shot. I might just have to get a new pistol.
