    Right, i got a dboys M4A1 and it's now missfiring ALOT. Every 10 shots it takes, 1 or 2 bb's comes out. It's not the mags, as i tried 9 different ones. It's not the bb's as i use Q-bullet and i've never had any problems with them before. I was told that it would have to be the hop-up then, any ideas anyone?

    Here is some pics of the hop-up unit, maybe you guys can see something wrong with it.

    And yes, i have tried it without hop-up on/off

    (Sorry for bad camera, it's my phone)

    The external of the hop chamber won't be the cause, it'll be the hop rubber, it could be seated wrong or worn out.

    Even if it isn't sticking a new one in will be of benefit anyway.

    Rob, I've noticed that different batches of Q-Bullet BBs can give different results - Any chance you were using them without problems, then got another bag or bottle and started to have problems ?

    Thats very likely your problem. Q-Bullet are low end crap BBs. I had problems with a batch of them and the Green blaster "camo Ammo" mixed together. then got a mag from Hivemind and it fired perfectly. :)

    I HATE THEM! :mad:
    I have a bottle and every gun I use them in gets screwed up. (Obviously I stopped using them rather quickly).
