L96 not loading correctly
 

Has anybody had this problem:

I put a magazine in my new (to me) L96, and I cock back for a shot and the first BB usually loads fine and shoots, but the second does not.
The reason for this I believe is with a bit of jostling the magazine sticks out a tiny bit from the bottom of the gun. When I try to cock it again, the bolt doesn't go forward all the way because the BB is not aligned correctly to go into the hopup, but rather jams up between the cylinder and hopup.

Any solutions? Tape? Lol.

Nevermind, solved my own problem. Strip of electrical tape in the back of the magwell and I have a solid mag lock.

Is it a modified magazine? Or the thing that hold the magazine up, there's a small spring, maybe its to loose.

I also found with those L96 that the mags work alot better when you dont load the magazine to its limit....for me anyways.

No it's the stock metal/plastic magazine. But the problem is fixed now.

+1

PLEASE tell me how you fixed it! I'm having the same problem and I really don't know what to do!


Where did you put the tape? lol

You know there is something called read.

Second post from the top...

You might also realize that the original post is more than a year old... meaning that the OP probably forgot about that thread for a while now...
