So I have a the same problem as a few people here with the King Arms...

I've had the rifle just over a week, and on the third day of firing things went sideways.

Firstly, I was losing all FPS... I'd pull the trigger, here the slap of the piston, and no BB came out.. Pulled again, same thing.... Pulled once more, POP BB flies out two feet and nose dives onto the ground.
Rinse and repeat... Every 5th or 6th BB that fired off would blast at full speed through the target...

So I decided to take matters into my own hands... The rifle was still under warranty, but I figured if I'm serious about the sport, I need to learn the internals. (I fix God damned C-17's, I figured I could handle airsoft rifles...)

I opened up the rifle, took out the hop up, and noticed the bucking was just mangled... Thought I'd found the problem... Rusty Lug nuts gave me a new bucking for the price of a coffee... Replaced it. Got the rifle put back together... Charged my battery...
Same God dang thing...

Now I've been reading about Hi Cap mags causing this issue, pistons... A lot of things... What's the problem here lads... If it's not the bucking, not the battery or motor... What's doing this!?

I'm pissed boys, I dropped 400$ so far... And it seems this is going to be a money pit with little satisfaction...

Side note: Why would a hi cap mag cause this? Doesn't make sense to me.
