Re: TM Hi Capa revive, old gun...

i dont mind taking things apart but guides help with confidence, theres loads to do with taking the barrel out, but not much on the blowback chamber?

i found this one tho:

hmmmm,

ok in the above video, the blowback chamber comes out easily with just one screw undone, is that right? because there's NO movement on mine at all?

Re: TM Hi Capa revive, old gun...

Yes mate 1 screw. You need to push it forward while pulling it

Re: TM Hi Capa revive, old gun...

thats what i gathered from the videos online, but there no movement in ANY direction lol

Re: TM Hi Capa revive, old gun...

got it!!! blimey it was tight! oooh eerr thats sounds wrong!

and ive found the problem!! the seal on the piston head was crushed and in two piueces, so where can i get a new o ring? plumbing store? halfrauds?

Re: TM Hi Capa revive, old gun...

think the blowback chamber is slightly stuck on mine, it doesn't spring back very well when moved forward

Re: TM Hi Capa revive, old gun...

hmm, failing to get a seal, my father-in-law had a box of rubber o rings, and typically they were either just to big or too small!

I got one that seals just about, put the gun together, it fires fine but the BB for each shot just drops out of the barrel, is that a pants seal or something else?

the blowback fires fine, gun cycles fine, behaves great, just doesnt fire the bb at speed!

Its the seal, because well its a tad obvious what it does and how it will work with the gun.

yeah i thought that, but it seems weird the blowback is fine, just shows it doesnt need much gas for that bit

Re: TM Hi Capa revive, old gun...

The seal doesnt provide blow back, makes the gas route through the nozzle and out in a blast, without the seals its like a 2 year old trying to blow out candles.
