Hop up problems on AK

[SurplusIG]

Ive got an Ak47 that needs repairs, it appears the hop up nozzle does not go back far enough to allow bb's to enter the hop-up.

The gun was sold to the owner and believed to be a Real Sword AK. I had never seen an AK like this one, so I assumed it was. I am used to working on SRC, G&G, ICS and classic army AK's, but this one was built differently. I am used to unscrewing screws on the front of the barrel assembly to remove the gearbox, but this one comes apart simply by removing an L shaped piece, moving the hop-up unit forward and pulling out the gearbox.

Upon opening the gearbox, I noticed that the gears had XYT stamped on them and the motor has www.chaoli-cn.com being the only indicator of what the motor is. The receiver also has russian markings I believe and not chinese like the type 56-1, the owner bought this gun second hand and was told it was realsword, but apart from having what appears to be a stamped receiver, I am not sure.

Any ideas as to what company this is, and what might be the problem with the loading nozzle? I believe it just needs a new loading nozzle, as there seems to be no wear on the tappet plate or the sector gear.

Thanks

If the owner was told it was a RS he got boned. What you are describing is a Dboys AK.

That is what I thought, I had seen some info pointing the XYT gears towards multiple companies, including DBoys.

Any suggestions on the misfeed / hop up problem? Should I order a new hop-up nozzle/loading nozzle?

Your nozzle is probably the cause.

take it out and measure it. I find aftermarket ones can vary quite substantially.

I believe stock Marui nozzle is about 20mm long.

My 5KU ones are 21.3mm long
My Element ones are 19.94mm long

Measure yours and if it needs a smaller one, order the Element replacement.
