KSC M11a1 urinating?
 

I have a weird problem with my m11a1. I suppose it all started when i placed silicon oil on the magazine where the gas goes out and i fired a few b's to lubricate the guns inernals. then i didnt use the gun for 3 weeks.

now, when i play with the gun, the bb's fly immediately downwards...as if there isnt enought firepower to propel the bb out. they only shoot out 2 feet!

so i disassembled it and found that parts 46 - 48 (combined) may be the problem...when i press part in part 43, it moves so slow outward...very slow...
could this be the problem? was it over lubricated? any feedback would be appreciated... thanks.

Probably .

The rubber parts have probably swollen with oil, and are causing parts to stick.

Maybe take-down and dry the parts, then let it sit for a while and try again.

I recall the M11 requiring a tight watch on lube use.

thanks for the reply. i'm having trouble disassembling part 48. it's hard to take out.

should the part 43 be moving fast when you release it after pressing?
