Anonymoose Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 So i have two brand new VFC MP5s. Neither have had more than maybe 3 magazines through them and last time i shot one it felt down on power and let a load of gas out the ejection port. A look at the magazine shows the front of the rubber gas router has a chunk taken out of it. (Another magazine has the same to a lesser extent.) I bought a new nozzle and some new gas routers, but wondering if anyone else has encountered anything similar? Looks like i just need to shave a little off the loading "finger" or chamfer the leading edge. Many thanks, Moose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ButcherBill Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 are you using the right mags? They may simply be be inserted too far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're the ones that came with the guns. I have spares that haven't been used. ButcherBill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aragoth Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago I love VFC mp5's so much but there's a lot of negative feedback out there on them and it seems mostly revolving around the magazine. The problem your having looks exactly like Explosive Enterprises problem, he recommends rounding off the leading corner of the nozzle but he does state it will only reduce not eliminate the wear.

I saw that yesterday when i had a look at the gun. I carefully rounded the nose like it said, but now it only feeds BBs from one side of the magazine. So you get one shot, then it cycles without loading another into the hop. 😂 Stupid gun, i really want to take it out and use it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ButcherBill Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago A new nozzle won't break the bank & could 'potentially' easily sort the issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
