Why isn’t my 400 Airsoft firing?
If your rifle isn’t shooting:
1. Battery Check:
- Use a voltmeter to make sure the battery is fully charged.
2. Look for Gear Jams:
- Gear jams can happen if the gun is fired with a weak battery or stored mid-cycle.
- Common signs: Clicking sound when pulling the trigger, motor twitching, and warm wiring or battery.
⚠️ Important: If you notice these signs, stop firing immediately to prevent damage.
To fix a gear jam, gently adjust the set screw on the grip to release the motor from the gearbox. Refer to this video for help regarding set screw adjustment.
