DSPUK Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 If you have cleaned it and it is still jamming then oiling it isn't going to help much - have you made sure ports in barrel are clean -are gas rings OK - is rubber seal ring OK -- Does it eject first but second is stuck in receiver - what happens ?? -- Have you tried different cartridges - if you are using 24 or 21g try 28g. When you get it working you could try semi or full synthetic motor oil - just a wipe of it on piston rings and action bar you only then need to wipe it clean. One more thing is it the model with the gas bleed off spring around front of barrel lug - if so is spring clip still there. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just printed off Instruction manual and going to try and workout which bit is which ......... Going to go through all your suggestions and give it another try.

Guest topshot_2k Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 as said check the gas ports, DO NOT over oil it as this will cause more problems, give everyhting a wipe over. 28g should be fine in it, we have used them in ours and not had a jam in 18months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COACH Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 70mm and 28/30/32 gram cartridges are best for the 11-87 and check the rings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
