Re: Wont Stop Firing

Tappet plate is the plastic bit with the copper contacts on it in the pic. You might need to super glue the bit the spring sits on.

The spring is prob still in the gun as your fire selector felt springy on wednesday when it went tits up.

That be the selector plate mate. Tappet plate is inside the gearbox, what retracts the air nozzle

Re: Wont Stop Firing

The spring on the selector plate should be on the guides of both the plate its self and the cut off lever, it looks a little loose.
As for the continuous firing, I would suggest looking to the switch assembly, it's more than likely the switch block spring has detached, or something is causing the block to stick. Selecting safe is the only way to break the circuit/stop the firing.

Re: Wont Stop Firing

If you've not already fixed it from your first picture it looks like your selector plate is actually cracked where the cam goes (zoom the pic, it's just around the notch).
This could result in the plate not engaging properly.

You could glue it to see if that fixes it then buy a replacement as a more permanent fix though installing them isn't fun.

Re: Wont Stop Firing

Firing full auto whilst on Semi tends to be a cracked tappet plate, well at least thats what it was with my M4...
