The official questions Thread v. NOT ANOTHER AR!!!11ONEONE!!! - General

Then it's the fuse or a short somewhere.

Trying to see if the fuse is inside of the gun, can't for the life of me can't get the upper off. Removed the mag catch and the two pins that were holding it in place, but it wont budge. Might have to take it in for someone to see it, don't really mind though cause it's the only time I've had to do anything more than clean the barrel for a year.

If the charging handle is functional, I think you have to pull that back, then lift up the upper receiver.

I have no idea how to take apart one and put it back together though

I found the problem. The wire contacts were loose. I feel dumb for actually getting the upper off and then finding out the problem was this easy. Then again, I do feel accomplished for actually getting inside the gun and not wrecking it for once.

You're a winner.

Thank you. :unsmith:

If the Glock Does fire a bit hot for tax city (350 FPS) is there any way to make a gas gun shoot not as hard?

[QUOTE=Kill001;27352081]Weaker spring... or one of those velocity reducer thingamajigs[/QUOTE] Gas guns bro... Use weaker gas, that's about all you can do.

[QUOTE=FPKawaii;27352105]Gas guns bro... Use weaker gas, that's about all you can do.[/QUOTE] Thought you can do those things on a gas gun too?

[QUOTE=Kill001;27352166]Thought you can do those things on a gas gun too?[/QUOTE] A weaker spring will just make it kick less and jam more.

Could you list gasses in cost effectiveness and strength?

[QUOTE=FPKawaii;27352182]A weaker spring will just make it kick less and jam more.[/QUOTE] But if you're toning down about 50 fps (assuming the gun shoots 400) then it would still make it jam?

[QUOTE=Kill001;27352260]But if you're toning down about 50 fps (assuming the gun shoots 400) then it would still make it jam?[/QUOTE] If it has a metal slide, a weak spring may not let it travel all the way back, so that's why putting a weaker spring in your gun makes it jam more. The FPS has nothing to do with that.

I was thinking about the amount power of the spring would make it jam more often (ie: forcing a gun to shoot 250 fps from 400 versus 350) Anyhoo, that reminds me my HiCapa won't have a plastic slide anymore

Could someone please post a list of gasses from most powerful to least powerful? And then post another regarding cost?

[QUOTE=krazipanda;27353900]Could someone please post a list of gasses from most powerful to least powerful? And then post another regarding cost?[/QUOTE] All the gas is the same, it's all propane. Green gas just has silicone in the can. Propane smells like ass cause propane companies put the ass smell in so you can smell it when it leaks.

Well. From what I can tell. From Weakest to strongest: * Duster Gas. * AC Gas. * Green Gas. * Red Gas. * Propane. * Co2 (If you count that. If not, don't.)

Good luck finding a proper adapter if you're in Slovenia though :(

[QUOTE=wewt!;27354488]Your cheapest option is getting a propane adapter and a propane tank + silicone oil and then just use that to fill your mags. Good luck finding a proper adapter if you're in Slovenia though :([/QUOTE] He's right, missed the price part. Propane is ultimately cheaper. $20 for an adapter and $5 for a big camping thing of propane will last you a long while. Co2 adapters are also an option, although I think Co2 is more expensive that propane and Co2 in most gas guns will fuck it up royally. I'm not positive on how Co2 adapters work in respects to GBB or anything, all I know is they do sell them but I think they're mostly for grenades.

Put AC gas in there, but as far as I can tell Propane is the strongest gas you can get. Partly because it's significantly lower silicon content since silicon is put in by hand every few refills and all. Power and vary.

I didn't say it wasn't. But Propane isn't as controlled and constant as Green Gas tends to be because it isn't regulated by any manufacturing process. Silicon oil tends to lower the FPS from my observations and there is typically less Silicon in propane mixtures. (Two drops every like couple of mags or something to that effect, I don't remember exactly.)

[QUOTE=Kill001;27344741]The guys at AEX told me that green gas fucks up most guns by TM including the glock, m92, and deagles Green gas is ok on the hicapas though[/QUOTE] My brother used it in his TM Desert Eagle without problems.

they sell these little plastic (though very thick and sturdy lookin) propane adapters plus a tube of silicon oil at tac city

AI is best propane adapter.

Those one with reflex on them aren't the best IMO.

[QUOTE=oakman26;27356027]Why not? Even if its G&P? And I have a Madbull propane adaptor with silicon port its good.[/QUOTE] Those fake doctor sights are terribad. Go with the Bravo one, those are great.
