Second, on one of the pic (linked below this paragraph), it looks like the nozzle is maybe catching on the internals. It's hard to see, but if it does catch, then is means your blowback chamber is misaligned and is pointing downwards, which causes exactly the problem you are having. Make sure you screw the screw behind the chamber (where the hammer hits) first, then make sure that the chamber is not moving when you screw the top screw. If your nozzle chamber spring was misaligned and was partly crushed between the slide and the chamber it can cause this problem. That would explain the damaged nozzle spring.
[Edit] Wow, opened that tab a few hours ago, now just replied and there's a bunch of replies... looks like you already found the problem. |
Yeah I've basically been going nuts at this, I tend to go a bit overboard on things like this lol.
I'm now trying to find information on why these 3 rings are there, how important they are and if making the whole thing smooth with jb weld would cause issues, or if filing the edges so that they are smooth would fix it.
I think it could also be shell ejection cover, or whatever the correct term for that is, that could be binding though I'm not entirely sure, it might be worth going at it with some fine sandpaper to remove the paint, I feel like it's catching further in though.
