Tokyo Marui UZI gearbox locked up HALP!
 

So by mistake I plugged in the wrong battery to my TM Uzi and dyed fired and gearbox locked up. So I attempted to take it apart following the The Book of Toyguns Disassembly guide and I can't take off the barrel thingy (pictures).http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...ist/halp12.jpg

Why don't you just use a more powerful battery to unlock/release it?

I've heard tell that if you have a metal rod that's long enough you can feed it down the barrel, gently through the hopup and nozzle and then push the piston back all the way till you get a full cycle.

That said like the post above me says I have a few batteries that half cycle AEGs if they're low, I just hook up one of the monsters and give it a single tap myself if this happens.

So I just took it apart, and now I'm scared to open this ancient gearbox v5. Anyone have a guide other then the unreadable The Book of Toyguns Disassembly

Again... If its just locked up from the wrong battery, a weak one I assume, just use a larger one, even if you have to hotwire it up, to unlock it.

Only if you dont want to open it up.

Fixed it, just open the gearbox and put it back together. Fuck that V5 gearbox!

Also I notice the sector gear has a chipped tooth but still cycles (I can't replace that gear I believe since v5 uses special gears).

Also hair dryer on barrel did the trick.

Told ya so.
