I ordered the JG M4A1 enhanced version. When I first unboxed it, I plugged the battery in right away. About a hour later I was impatient and test shot it. It shot great. So I plugged the battery back. About four hours later I connected it too my gun but it dident shoot. I then tried the battery in my Thompson and it shot great. I really hope this is a small problem and someone can help me fix it.

@BGBx If the battery works in another rifle then the problem is most likely electrical. First, double check that the battery is properly connected and that all the wires going to both the rifle's and battery's connectors are not loose. Try firing the rifle in both fire modes since if you release the trigger at just the right time in semi auto the gearbox will not start again until you switch to full auto. Try checking the fuse as it shows in the video as well as the wiring to the motor.

my brand-new gun's battery will only work with one other battery. And even with that battery, the gun will stop shooting after a bout 15 mins of firing. After that, i can here it trying to shoot when i pull the trigger, but it just wont shoot again for a while. Im wondering wether it is a fuse, battery,or wiring problem Thanks

@TheTextClan It almost sounds like the battery isn't being charged. If the rifle will fire for a short while and then stop, only to fire a few more times after you wait a little while, chances are the battery is dead and needs to be recharged. You might want to make sure your charger is working correctly.

Hey i have a JG M4 s-system and i accidenty pulled the trigger while on saftey ( long story ) and now it wont do anything in semi or fullauto. Also i charged the battery and it still didnt work what should i do?

@3picAirsoft If the rifle stopped functioned right after pulling the trigger on safety then something most likely broke inside of the gearbox. That unfortunately would require disassembly of the gearbox.

hello. i recentally bought a mp5 bt5a3. my friend had told me it was broken, and it was the piston was shredded. that is not my problem however (i bought a new piston), my problem is that when i plug in my battery, the gear do a quick jolt and it offsets my new piston and therefore the shooting is of (i am firing 2-3 rounds on semi-auto and they only go a few feet).

@campinggear1 Ok, so if the rifle keeps cutting in and out (electrical) then you probably have a loose connection somewhere. At that point you just have to start tracing the wires back through the rifle to find the troublemaker.

oh thanks but the mags noy having problems feeding its the electrical work

@campinggear1 Do you have a high capacity magazine by chance? If it is making a firing sound but only shoots out BBs when you hold it upside-down, you probably are not winding the magazine enough or do not have enough BBs in the magazine. Please click on my name and then view the video about high capacity magazines on my channel.
