kwa g19 need help!
 

hey i just bought a kwa g19 and its great everything works fine except the slide never locks back after the last shot is fired does anyone have an idea why that may be?

take o look on the magazine

where should i look on the magazine?

check the loader spring

it looks ok although its hard to push the bbs in sometimes and it never really wants to stay locked down when im loading bbs either

remove your mag base and take off the locked down spring

theres a pin to remove
u have to use a radio plier

or check the groove that pushes the slide stopper

ok ill try that some one told me it might be that screw that gets loose in the blowback chamber could that be it too? i dont see how that could be it tho cause the gun shoots fine cycles fine just doesnt stay back when the ammos done

What about if you were to manually pull back the slide with an empty magazine inserted? Will the slide lock back then?

Happened to my KSC G19 once, the slide release is made of sheet metal and the part that gets pushed up (sticks out horizontally in the magwell) by the mag follower was slightly bent upwards and wouldn't let the slide lock after the last shot.

I took the slide off (learn to do this if you don't already) and used some pliers to bend it down a little bit to cause the part that catches the slide to rise up more. Only needs a slight bit of bending to fix it, don't overdo it!!!!

yea the thing on top of the mag its straight up and down the metal tab thingie on the left side right thats what i should bend a little? or bend the slide catch?

oh ok i see what ur talkin about now im gonna bend it down a little and see if it works thanks

If you can rack the slide back manually and have it lock in to place when you have an empty magazine inserted, then there should be nothing wrong with your follower

hey thanks cdn stalker that was it lol that was driving me nutz
