[oneofakind]

hi all i have just managed to get my self my first airsoft rifle i was given it from a family member
it is a tokyo marui m16 a2 i really dont no anything about it but

i got two problems i think one is the hop up thingy mobob because it has came out
(i think it is called hop up because it says hop on it )

and the other is the MAG because it seems to shoot one bb and then not load the next one but the marker is still shooting but not shooting bb's

also has anyone any mags for sale for the gun

Re: help m16 a2

When you say the hop has came out what exactly do you mean?

As for the mag if it is a hi cap (has a winding wheel on the bottom of the magazine) fill the mag with beebs and wind the wheel over and over till you feel firm resistance/the sound of winding changes.

If the magazine is a low/mid cap where you have to place the beebs in with a loading rod or speed loader, it may have been left loaded for a long period or otherwise have a damaged spring or the quality of beebs you are using may be poor and causing them to jam.

hop up applies spin to the beebs as they leave you gun so that they are leaving your gun and traveling upwards to increase range as they are basically fighting against gravity.

The more hop you apply (turning wheel clockwise) the further up the beebs will go as they leave the barrel, you want to set the wheel to the sweet spot where depending on the weight of beebs you are using they travel in a straight(ish) line the longest before starting to fall due to gravity.
