just a few A1 issues, please help

[fantom]

ok, I'm just breaking it in but from the start these are the problems:

1. bounce - bounces from 2 balls to full auto on slow pull
2. noise - as loud as my AK was
3. breech block - doesn't fall to place all the way (has about 1mm space),
and also is quite loose when shooting
4. I maybe wrong but can't seem to find "loader speed" setting on my menu

anybody with actual ideas and experience please help. :secrets:

and yes, I am the original owner

1. This will be a trigger adjustment and a "debounce" setting thing here. No two will ever have the exact same trigger adjustments. So it will be just a matter of you adjusting and experimenting with your trigger.

2. Noise will be affected by your pressures and dwell, among others. If you have the guages to check your internal pressures you can adjust. I actually don't think an A1 is that terribly quiet, but that's never been an issue for me.

3. You may need to adjust your breech. There are small allen screws you can adjust to tighten or loosen this. They are located on the left side of the breech block at the bottom.

4. If you have software vesrion 2.1 there is no "loader speed" It was changed to paint type in 2.1, ie Fragile-Medium-Hard settings with various degrees in both.

Thats about all I can think of, but everyone on here is very helpful. More posts will follow.

i thought it was a hand cannon too when i first shot it in the store, and in my basement,
but on the field it is really quiet (i find)

loader speed changed to Paint Type in the 2.1 update
(more fragile you set the paint, the gun cycles slower, accordingly.)

thanks. it is version 2.1, and 2.2 as of tomorrow.

did try changing my trigger or better moving it all over the place,
but bounce just doesn't go away. i'm aware that slow pull belongs
in the past, but one of the leagues we play still uses that to ban
guns from the tournament. you can see where my problem is than.

don't have the gauge to check p. does the old one from speed fit?
the thing with noise is that i compared it to other a1s and it seems
fairly louder.

will try to adjust breech.

keep posting. and i'll post back how i resolved these.
still love my a1 and these hickups couldn't ever affect that!

Mine did get quieter as it was broken in as well. How many cases have you shot through it so far?

1. Just play with your trigger setting im sure thats all it is. As far as shooting auto thats called a sweet spot. All opti guns have them.
2. Er...New barrel?
3. sounds alright to me.
4. Was changed in..2.1? i believe

[fantom]

like i said, still breaking it in.

i shot like 1 case of paint through it since it's still
cold here, but did shoot huge amount of reballs
in practice. thank you all for the info.

new barrel? i'm waiting for my rage stik :))
