Flimsy hand grip

    I bought a shotgun for forty euro from eirsoft,The m56-dl which is made by double eagle I think. Its the one that fires 3 shots at once just so you have a better idea of which one it is.
    It's not a major problem just the hand grip is really flimsy (it moves back and forth ALOT and is very distracting while shooting) and just wondering if there is anything I can do to fix it in place.

    it might just need to be tightened. there should be a allen key bolt in the bottom of the handle give it a tighten and see if that works

    What do you mean by flimsy?

    Do you mean is wobbling from side to side? If so, yeah theres an allen key screw underneath the grip. Just tighten it up and you'll be fine.

    Or do you mean it feels like its going to break easily? As I have one of those shotguns and the grip is rock solid.

    If its the shotgun i think it is you'll need a longer one than 4 inch, i had a similat problem so i had a long flat blade screwdriver and hammered that into the allen bolt and screwed it in nice and tight. :)

    And if you can't get it in a hardware shop, all Airsoft retailers (E.g, m.i.a) would have a few for you. If you bring in the gun, they'll probably fix it in front of you, then and there, for free.

    Most retailers fix basic things for free, it's good for image. ;)

    Yeah unless its a problem that would take more than a few minutes its likely to be free.
