However, I think I've figured out what the issue is, or at least what exacerbates it: I have a Streamlight TLR-2 rail-mounted light/laser that weighs around 4oz. With it attached, the gun FTF every 2-3 rounds, as previously noted.
Without the TLR-2 attached, it runs ALMOST flawlessly. I say almost because it does still on rare occasion go into full-auto mode, which is annoying because I was wanting to use this to practice in tactical matches where every shot (and UD) counts. But at least it doesn't discharge all of the gas from the magazine..
I'm guessing the weight of the TLR-2 flexes the frame too much during action, probably causing the slide to not go back fully, which in turn causes the hammer to not fully cock back. Ironically, this actually is a problem on the real-steal 40 caliber Glocks with heavier rail-mounted accessories, too.
I'm guessing the only remedy would be to increase the power of the gun to overcome the flexation. To that end, do you folks have recommendations beyond a high-flow valve and tight-bore barrel?
Also, since I'm more used to the real thing, how much oil is a "liberal amount?" On the RS, you generally go VERY light on the oil (like literally a couple drops on a Q-tip for the whole application). I've applied what I think is liberal, but it may not be enough for an airsoft gun.
