G&G m14 socom no response from electrics
the gun was cycling fine during the day of hotbox, but gave up the ghost when the sun went down. There was no response from the trigger, not even a buzz from the motor. I initially thought dead battery, but trying a new one resulted in nothing.
Then I thought it might be the fuse, so when I got home, I pulled the fuse, it seemed fine, I cleaned the contacts on either end and put it back in, and lo and behold the gun started cycling again.
So I went into my basement and started putting mags of BBs through ( I am also having feeding issues with crappy CA magazines, which hopefully I solved)
at some point, the gun died again, and again, I stripped it down to the fuse, pulled it out, checked it, put it back in and it started firing again.
the 3rd time, I randomly tried changing the selector from semi to fully and it started shooting again. (I remember doing this at hotbox and getting no response) so I'm not sure what's going on.
I have read that the reverse lockout was changed by a few other newer g&g m14 owners, could this be causing these weird issues?
