Double feeding
18 February, 2012, 13:41
My g&p m16a3 double feeds, I have tried pushing the magzine up as it is in the magwell and this didn't change anything. It is also not consistant, sometimes it will double feed sometimes it wont, any ideas on what the prblem could be would be much apreciated.

My G&P M4 done the exact same. A friend of mine ( a gun tech ) had a look at it and said that the supplier had done a butch job of downgrading it by cutting the spring which had damaged it. As far as I know, he replaced the spring and piston.

Re: Double feeding
Did he say why the spring was the problem? Was it getting stuck on something? Jamming?

He said that the supplier had downgraded the FPS by cutting the spring which had made the spring unwind itself and force into the piston. Sorry matey, thats all I know

Re: Double feeding
Ok, shouldn't be that then as mine is filed and bent back so it can't do that, and it isn't the mags, so what else could it be?

Re: Double feeding
Try looking at the loading nozzle through the magwell and firing slowly, so pulling the trigger a little so it moves, see if it moves forward all the way before firing. Had any work on the Gearbox? New gears, nozzle etc?

Re: Double feeding
I think i put a new gear in it because it stripped a piston and ate itself, but no new nozzle
