New TM M14 problems

[Jap]

hi i just got my TM M14 with a M100 string about a few days ago and noticed that the gun sometimes skips shooting and when i remove the mag 3-5 bb's fall out. is this normal, if not how would i fix this.

Re: New TM M14 problems

mag wound up propperly?

hop too far on?

battery fully charger?

when was the last time the inner barrel and hop was cleaned out?

when you dry fire the gun whilst looking into the hop chamber where the mag sits, do you see the air nozzle constantly moving smoothly?

Re: New TM M14 problems

by skips shooting do you mean that the gearbox still cycles and no bbs shoot out the barrel? and when you say 3-5bbs come out do you mean they drop out from where the mag goes into the magwell, or out of the barrel?

Re: New TM M14 problems

it is normal for a few bb,s to drop out the magwell when removing the mag, also what make bb,s are you using

Re: New TM M14 problems

Im using Zero One 0.2 bb's, and when i mean its skips shooting, the gear box does cycle with no bb's firing. and also 3-5 bb's fall out the magwell. sorry was lacking in weapon terms lol throught i wont get problems like this from a brand new rifle.

Re: New TM M14 problems

sounds like mags not feeding properly

Re: New TM M14 problems

The mag should be feeding as its brand new lol

Re: New TM M14 problems

If it's shooting fine but skips a few rounds every now and again, it's your mags, new or not. The mag may be working but just doesn't like your ammo, it happens.

3+bb's falling out of the hop chamber when removing the mag, perfectly normal

Try using 0.25's, TM's run better on them but make sure they are a quality highly polished round to avoid issues with feeding
