Feeding Problem with Ares M4A1

[D.R. Kinger]

Having a slight feeding problem with my M4A1 - the BB's tend to either fire, and get jammed in the barrel, or not feed what so ever. They will feed in a constant stream if I have the gun tipped upside down.

Please help me diagnose the problem, i've had to borrow an MP5 from my mate for a while and it would be nice to have my M4 back.

Thanks!

do you happen to leave your mags loaded between games ? , if you can loan another mag try that

I do... I didn't realise it was problematic, is there anyway to fix the mag?

yep the springs if left compressed over a lot of time will damage/weaken the spring giving less force to feed the gun.

as for fixing them , take the mag apart and try and strech the spring a little or put some bb's at the other end of the spring to compress it a little , does mean you lose cap tho
