Alright, I have version 2 gearbox and the piston keeps getting jammed. I'll take it apart, fix it, put it back together, shoot it for a bit, then it gets jammed again. Anybody know what the problem is and how to fix it, if it even is fixable?

Have you lubricated the gearbox at all?

Yeah, I did that the first time. I also did it everytime it seemed like it needed it.

Not in the gearbox. Just the hop-up, and barrel.

Then get a new hop up/barrel? I'd suggest taking it into a tech, as they're the only ones who know exactly what to do (unless your a pro techy yourself). I used to have lots of jams when I had my m16, new hop up/barrel did the job just fine.

I'm a techy. Working on being a pro. I thought there might be a few pros on here so I brought it up.
