hey help me please i was playing with my saftey on my ak and my lever is stuck on safe i can move the level but triger is on safe i cant move the triger helppp

Well, I figured that my fire mode switch was loose, so we tried tightening it up, but without success

Hey, my AEG shoots auto in semi mode i changed few parts: new lonex swich set, cut-off and selector palte, but still shoots auto in semi

my shoots in full auto then when i pull the trigger again it is semi? Anyone know the fix?

I have an ics m4 my first semi auto shot is sometimes full auto and other time it just make a click noise after the first trigger pull it works fine any suggestions?

My semi auto works but my trigger gets stuck when I pull semi auto... What would cause that?

I have checked my trolly and cutoff lever they both seem fine. But when I cycle the gears the gear does not make contact or doesnt make enough contact to push the cutoff lever up. Any ideas?

Right I have an ICS L85 which only fires full auto regardless of where the fire selector is, the cut off lever seems to be in good condition, the fire selector assembly seems to in good condition and lastly the trigger unit also appears to be in good condition, when I test it manually everything works as it should, but once the power is connected it will just fire full auto. Anyone know a fix for this?

Where can I buy a new contact unit then?
I've been looking around and I cant seem to find any

so i have a unusual case with mine when semi auto is engaged the gun fires once and will not fire again unless i take apart the gearbox and manually reset everything. i had to do this about 10 times and finally just took out the cutoff lever and it shoots fine on full auto. just to clarify full auto worked before i removed the cutoff lever but if i fired on semi at all, nothing worked anymore. i have no clue what to do so if anyone has the answer please help.

Hi I own a n Ak47 yokoslavia and it was working great. I took it apart to clean it and put back together. When I went to shoot it my semi auto stop working. Now I can only shoot one at a time .. Any ideas???

So, my problem im thinking stems from partially my selecter plate and my safety lever inside the GB, I can click the trigger back on safe if I pull hard enough and the lever is warped.

My gun chambers in the bbs but it wont shoot

I put semi on my gun, and when I pull the trigger all the way, it shoots semi, but when i pull it just enough to shoot, it goes full auto. It is a modified AK gearbox, but I checked and all of my parts are crisp and new. Any thoughts?

How do u take apart g&g scar l

so i have a problem where my gun shoots full auto fine. on semi pulling the trigger all the way it shoots fine but when i accidently pull it half way it shoots full auto. It has a brand new cutoff lever in it and i cant figure out the problem any help would be appreciated.

my airsoft mp5 only shoots in semi automatic. pleases could someone reply an answer for this.

thank you for making this video i was having trouble with my gun only shooting full auto ,after seeing this vid i checked to see if it was my trigger contact that was causing this and it seemed to be pretty worn out so hopfully a new trigger contact will fix it thanks again this video was really helpfull

Even though it is easy to just shoot one bb at a time in full auto it still sucks my Thompson semi isn't working after I wired it to the front because I hate the stock with my t-rex arms.
Never mind about no semi it worked when I put my 9.6 volt battery in that is charged.. so I guess the 8.4 was almost dead.

when i fire in semi automatic the trigger gets stuck in the back position, however when i fire in automatic there is no problem. Can someone help please

thank you, my cutoff lever and anti reversal I already replaced, my trigger contact is like the damaged one.

This happened to me today. This is a new Gun. What caused this to happen?

my airsoft gun is 2 days old outthebox and i dont see how it could be worn already but ill check

My E&L AKM is having the problem when I switch to semi, sometimes it shoots 2 BBs in a double tap fashion, is this problem the video is talking about?

My trigger has play, it goes forward and backwards on a ECHO 1 GAT. It only shoots when I have a screw driver on the trigger contacts pushing it. The spring to the trigger contacts and gear box pops off often. I believe is a proprietary gear box, any advice how to fix this?

ill look into this contact! thanks.. my gun when i jerk the trigger itll shoot semi. but when i squeeze it starts to burst 5 rounds :)

So i was at an airlift field and my FPS was too high. So they made me put it on semi auto and take out the selector after the games I put every thing back together and it won’t go off semi auto. Does anyone have any advise? (It’s a cm.042 cyma ak47 btw)

Thank you. Helped a lot.

Hello! I have this problem myself and I will try to fix it. But If I can't fix it, is there a way to remove the full auto feature from my gun so that it can only shoot in semi? Or is this impossible?

Hello i have a g33 from ics and when i shoot in semi auto after a few shoots it jams and i have to pull in full auto to unjamed can someone help me please

My PTS Masada only shoots 4/10 trigger pulls and the battery is charged and it double shoots some times. I have a merf 3.2 and it keeps doing that. What is the problem

My gun shoots semi but occasionally it suddenly shoots a two round burst on semi, any idea why?

I'm working with an electric p90 and the semi won't work unless I hit down on the clip and not let go of the clip, but full auto works fine, the contacts are blackened at some spots but I cleaned almost all of it off but still the same issue, any ideas?

My AEG is a Valken Alloy MK3. I've used it twice the first time no issues at all. The 2nd time I'm getting misfires when in semiautomatic. I can pull off a few rounds then nothing. I turn it to full auto shoot off a few rounds then semi works again. It continually does this. Any thoughts?

can you make an in depth video about how to fully disassemble airsoft m4's i cant find any good ones
their all usually very old too

im having problems with my AUG to fire full auto. can you help me out it was working before i stored it

My guns been doing this to

How do you fix that

just got my AEG today and it was shooting semi fine at first but then it started randomly shooting full auto and shirtly afer the recoil bumped up really high. Any solution?

Can't really see what your talking about, too blurry, however this is what I needed, thankyou for the video

My gun is semi and I have to pull the lever back for every shot it won’t cock itself back do you know what this is?

ok after three hours of fixing my gun what i have learned is that some gears have a small magnet that tells the mosfet to stop on semi so if you find your gun is shooting full auto on semi you probably need to transfer the magnet to the new gears

This helped I'll try this out and see if it works thanks man
