Guest topshot_2k Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 is the 'bolt' moving freely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harnser Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 I had a remmy 1100 a few years ago that had a similer problem . The timing of the gun is regulated by the free play in the two arms that slide back on the mag tube and push the bolt back . If the free play is to much or two less then the gun will try to fire out of battery ( fire without the bolt closed and locked ) if this is the case then the bolt cannot unlock untill all the pressure is out of the barrel there for stopping the gun cycling and ejecting and another round . Well that was what was wrong with mine . Harnser . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_k Posted January 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 is the 'bolt' moving freely? yes it is and i have replaced the thing with two arms that moves the bolt it will fire one shot at atime it is just rather annoying having to cycle the thing manually i think i will have to take it in to the gun shop to let the pros have a look at it however professional the service may not be....! thanks guys any other help will be much appreciated SK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duster Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 Only thing I could maybe suggest is to check the diameter of the gas piston - my Franchi's gas piston has worn out and gone undersize, meaning gas just blows past it, leading to problems cycling light loads. Have you tried putting some heavier stuff (32/36g) through your gun to see if it cycles those? Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
