Hey there, I recently looked over a G36 for some one that lives a little ways out of town -- Now, I have BARELY any G36 experience... and the only previous experience with a G36 that I do have is with a JG.. and that was rather unpleasant lol.

While looking this gun over I didn't do anything internally, I simply removed the lower to check to see if the Mechbox screws had been stripped (which they hadn't)

I put it together, tested everything and sent him on his way...

Now I know it's really hard to diagnose these things through text, but this is what his complaints are;

"When I pulled the trigger, the semi auto worked fine, but when I tried it on full auto, the trigger locked up and did not fire.

I switched it back to semi auto and trigger pulled fine; but went back to full auto and something didn't sound right in the trigger when I pulled it. Any ideas?

On full auto, I hear a noticeable "clicking" sound, or the trigger doesnt want to pull at all. Semi, doesn't give me any "sound." From safe to full, it feels like there's some friction but less noticeable; but when going from semi to full, it locks up altogether.

when I pull the trigger, it'll do one of 3 things;

1) Make a loud audible clicking noise each time the trigger is pulled
2) lock up altogether and needs a bit of force to pull
3) act normally -- no sound and seem to be fine (20% of the time)"

Now... My thoughts are I may have ran the wires poorly when I put everything back together (possibly interfering with the selector plate)... But the problems he's describing are too intermittent and almost seem like an entirely mechanical problem..

I'm going to take another look at it and try to re-run the wires again... but in the meantime, Anyone have any suggestions / theories?
