Been playing with ChatGPT again, this time it's my VFC XM177E2, changed out the background from my carpet to the one in the picture, I recently bought a genuine Vietnam era 20rnd mag and some deactivated 5.56mm and added them "jungle mag" style, just for when it's hanging on the wall. I hope you like it.

Troubleshooting Old g&p gbbr trouble shooting

7 Upvotes

I have a very old G&P GBBR that doesn't like to shoot. Basically you can get one shot then it dumps all the gas. I've tried different mags and HPA but nothing seems to work and from what I can there's nothing obviously wrong. I'd love to get this thing back up and running so if you have any advice please let me know

Gun Pic Is the piston of my Vfc ak105 loose on bolt carrier or it is normal like this?

5 Upvotes

Is the piston’s slight wobble and the fact that it twists a problem? Or is this normal? I heard it can break overtime due to recoil if not tighten properly as it happened to Jaeger precision.

Also no idea how to tighten it as i need a very long allen key.

Thanks

Troubleshooting What do I do? VFC AK105

Post image
• Upvotes

Hello all, back to bug everyone again with another stupid question. What is this spring? And is it seated incorrectly? I feel like at some point something happened and now it’s in the way of the magwell when I put a magazine in. It still functions, and I can get the mag in, but I feel like something isn’t quite right. Should I bend it back into position or will that do more damage? Thank you all in advance.

Troubleshooting The selector switch on my VFC HK416 Evo is mushy. Can I put in a real AR-15 selector switch?

2 Upvotes

Mine is kinda mushy. It clicks when I switch it between firing modes but I'm used to premium real AR-15 switches. Will the airsoft one accept a real selector switch?

Troubleshooting VFC P226 Mk25 gas dump issue

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I have a VFC P226. I've had many issues with it. First it was the trigger spring that snapped, at the same time I had a mag placement issue where i had to push the mag up in order for it to fire.

Recently it decided to stop altogether, didn't fire when mag pushed up. then all of a sudden it worked after trying to show a friend a week later but then rapid fired dumping gas after about 3-4 shots. I replaced the hammer assembly and nozzle and it seemed to work nicely. However I've come back home today and now it's doing exactly the same thing, fires 1-4 shots and then dumps gas. This happens with all 5 mags I have, all mags have rarely been used so I can't see the mags having an issue.

Also just to add I have to either pull the trigger twice to fire or push on the de-cocker lever to set the hammer to fire.

If anyone has any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Discussion Green gas pressure too high?

1 Upvotes

Just purchased a Noveske N4 from Evike, hasn't arrived yet but I was planning on running .28g bb's on it, I purchased a 3 pack of green gas from Amazon and didn't realize the PSI rating on it, it's 199 PSI. Most of the videos I've seen on GBBR's i see people using cans with a 130-150 PSI rating, is 199 too high?

Just bought a VFC MP5k Early Gen 2 was wondering what are some of the common issues with them. I know about the gas router being eaten at point already but what else?

Also was looking at the Bow master VFC Mp5 NPAS Kit is it any worth? Or should I just get a NPAS of guillotine.
