TM Hi-capa slide failure

Tillude · February 11th, 2009, 10:50

sorry about my spelling..

Im from the netherlands and i have TM hi-capa, and i recently bought a secend hand Metal Slide for the hi-capa. The following is the problem

installing is now problem, loading works good , but when i fire no bb comes out , the slide does goes backwards but innerchambers stays in the most front position.

The blowback unit seems to fit pretty good ( if i measure the depth it is correct )
I have no idea now were i should look a this time.....and over here no one seems to be able help ...anyone got any ideas ???

Can you post pictures of the gun and the internals of slide? Maybe that would help.

If its loading properly... and cycling.. Maybe something happened with the inside of the loading nozzle and is causing the valve inside to get stuck forward making all the gas go back and none to the bb.

What brand of the slide is it? Check your hop-up too.

ok when i change it back to the standard slide it works go so the BBU is in good shape ..

The slide is a Davindson something (wildcat )...

when i load it the inside does come to the back and loads a bb ....but on gas it isnt moving ....imm gonna look a the gas splitting ...

most upper picture is the position it keep when i fire

From the picture, I would guess that the spring on the blow back chamber isnt seated properly and has popped out. Try teflon tape to secure the spring in place.

Styrak and Illusion would have a better idea.

What that white spot inside the slide?

Have you upgraded anything else?
How about the springs?

I think you'll need to get a Airsoft Surgeon Hard Piston. The stock one catches on the slide, because they're made by the same company, or replicas of, Shooters Design/Airsoft Surgeon slides, and those don't like stock loading nozzles.

I have a Davidson Custom slide as well. I could try swapping my stock piston into my DC slide, and see if it catches like yours if you want?

Azatoth : no the leaf ( if i am correct ) stays in place ..

Mr Hitman : the with spot i a sanded ( or filled i dont know the diference in english

) down by the previous owner .

Styrak : i f you can try that , that would be great.....

I had this same problem happen with old generation Airsoft Surgeon slide. It was remedied by using the Airsoft Surgeon air seal nozzle.

Those earlier generation slides would not work properly with stock or Shooters Design nozzle.

They're specific to the gun yes. You'll just have to order from Hong Kong.
