JG G36c wont feed

Yougart15

Just wondering if anybody knows whats wrong? Im pretty sure its not a problem with the mag though, the BB's dont seem to be going into the gun, almost as if they dont fit? I can push single ones into the chamber by force but the magazine wont out them in.

*update* ok i've taken of enough parts to see the problem, the piston seems to be extending to far every time a shoot so the next bb cant fit into the chamber:( spring problem maybe? anybody with any ideas?

Is the mag a hi-cap?

You need a minimum amount of bbs in it to wind, fill it, wind it then try.

It is an airnozzle.
I think in G36c you can move barrel a bit. just check that it installed correctly.
Can you measure the size of the airnozzle and I can Check that you have correct one.
Did that just happened or it was like that after modification?

im 100% sure its not the mag anyway but thanx for help:)
whats an air nozzle? sorry if that sounds noobie just not familiar. I think so tho the piston pushs this black thing that pushs the BB down the barrel but its extending to far and theres no room for the next bb to reach the chamber.

Checked the barrel and dosnt seem faulted.

Nope havnt modiefied it at all its completly stock

Is the mag working then?

Have you been re-using bbs, this can damage the air nozzle and prevent it from feeding bbs.

Not really to be honest maybe the odd few BB's but most of them are straight from the tub, I might consider selling it off as someone with any experience with gearboxs etc would more then likely be able to fix it.

Thanks for the help anyway though i appreciate it!

Look inside the mag well when firing, can you see the air nozzle moving?

It should move back and forth to load bbs, if it doesn't, it may be detached, or damaged, either way its cheap to fix.

Thing is the air nozzle is moving back and forth but theres not enough space between the nozzle and the start of the barrel for a BB to fit into, basically the air nozzle is stopping them chambering but it wasnt always like that so im wondering maybe has a spring become to worn and extended or somthing?

I am interested as I need some parts for my G36C

What sort of figures are you looking at?

Masada

what BBs do ya use? try excels in it, some other BBs like blaster and Beast are absolute pigs for miss feeding.,

if the airnozzle is springy then its still seated correctly and would be the cause of the problem,.,

Weird.

Maybe a downgraded model that the wrong size nozzle was put into, but thats really clutching at straws.
As vtec said it could be the bbs.
If they are yellow it IS the bbs

Masada

it can also happen if some of the teeth are a bit shaved on the piston and the sector gear jumps over a few when you fire it., i fixed DOCs one the other day with those exact symptoms.,

Emm i suppose around 50 considering the gun has never been to a skirmish and only has about 4000 rounds through it? I might offically put it up for sale later in the proper forum but i'm going to try once more at fixing it beacuase i love this gun:D

Ok.. this is a bit weird.
After reading this post 2 days ago my g36c got the same problem.
Problem.....
Using lo-cap on ''single'' -- shots 2 bb`s ,after removing mag there are like 5 bb left in. a bit worse is with full auto.

Oh yes after about 5-8 shots bb`s are not coming out at all and after removing mag they all ar falling out.
