A&k M249 Box Mag Does Not Feed


Angel

Recommended Posts

Here we go again with me having more airsoft problems,

So I recently traded my Scar-L for an A&K M249 which works amazingly, at least when the box mag feeds it all the way. The box mag is also made by A&K and was never used before I got it. The m249 works fine with M4 mags but the box mag just does not work. I've looked online for a replacement but since I don't really want to pay $80or more for a new one I'm going to have to find some way to fix the magazine... Anyone know any fixes?

1. Check the battery in box mag

2. Check the wiring in the box mag

3. Check the sound/auto switch

4. You can also buy the pressure pad switch to force the box mag to feed manually.  

 

Those box mags are notorious for messing up.  If you can save your pennies, the Mag Brand one is the best one on the market.

Moving to correct section.

Sorry about that, I wasn't sure which section to post this on.

The box has fresh double AA batteries in it, box spins up and bb's go through the tube and into the black part the connects to the gun in the mag well. I've also tried leaving it on sound control and firing but it didn't work either, not sure what would be wrong with the wiring though if the box spins up and bb's go through the tube.

Make sure your hop-up unit is correctly aligned... Had mine do that same thing before and the hopup had spun a tad on me.
