Gah, what i think is an airseal issue, BB's falling out the end of the barrel

[theguy]

hmm...that makes sense...i cant really more the hop up assembly, its spring loaded and locked into the outer barrel...

[theguy]

does any one have any suggestions on how i could create the airseal that i need? I know almost nothing about hop up systems, esspesially the G36 version...

[Styrak]

Are you using a aftermarket hopup chamber or rubber?

When the chamber is assembled and on the barrel, can you see straight through the entire barrel minus a tiny section of hopup rubber that cuts across?

[theguy]

Its stock
and yeah...not sure if this is normal, but even when the hop up is all the way down there is still a tiny bit of it that cuts into the barrel.
I think thats normal, but im not sure.

Yeah it's normal to have a tiny bit showing all the time. There's a nub right on the hopup rubber.

[theguy]

yeah thats there...got any suggestions??

I had a problem similar to this with a G36 I was fixing. I think the problem was a shitty hopup rubber not forming a seal with the nozzle.

hmm...heres what happened...
out of the box, it was great.
opened it up to install sorbo and a slighty weaker sping, when i put it back together this happened...
trying to fix it i already switched back to the stock sping, and compleatly dis-assembled/re-assembled my hop up, with no luck...

Is your spring intact/installed, so the barrel/hopup assembly pushes against the mechbox?

Just bring it to the gun doctor. lol
Save you much more time. Or buy yourself a new TM gearbox.

[theguy]

hmm...
should the hop up assembly be pressed up tightly agains't the mechbox??
its very spring loaded, but there is like a 2mm gap between the mechbox shell and the hop up assembly...
want a picture of what i'm talking about?

[theguy]

I think ima try that soon...
but first i wanna try myself...
Teach a man to fish, eh?
and because parts are now age restricted i can't..

It would help.
Your hop up should spring back to you when you place it in the upper.

Well you can always order off other websites too you know.

[theguy]

it does spring back, very spring..ily(?)
it just doesn't quite touch the mechbox...

[Shirley]

Hmm, spring back just a little. I'm not sure if your hop up is supposed to hit your gearbox.
