Here's a gathered list of problems as well as reviews and posts I've been reading about the CA249. If anything is wrong, please post corrections so I can fix it up!


Problems with Solutions
1. Piston Stripping after a short number of rounds
solution - don't turn hopup too high, change piston (CA's are known to be very brittle)

2. Micro switch faulty
solution - be aware when taking mechbox out

Normally the trigger can't push the switch that far but when pushing it with your fingers be VERY CAREFUL and you shouldn't have any problems...
3. Gun tends to fire in full auto on it's own without trigger being pulled
solution - problem with mircro switch in general, be aware of this problem when in safezone

4. Box Mag plastic a bit weak (reports of cracking after game use)
solution - none at the moment, just be aware of this

5. 8.4V Large Batteries not fitting in stock
solution - plug the battery in first, shove the wiring in, then fuse then battery and it will fit

6. Bipod leg/s don't fold down properly
solution - none at the moment, not a problem on all ca249's (QC problem)
