jk. Sorta... okay, not really. But yeah... sorry, I don't have strong experience with clones, so I can't answer questions like this without actually handling them and checking out the mechanism in person.

Clones can experience a lot of other issues not common to an original Marui. Most of it is generally chalked up to poor manufacturing and/or poor/loose engineering.

Contrary to popular belief, none of these clones are 100% compatible with Marui... there is always *some* area that isn't fully compatible.

Who knows, it could be the mag. Try another mag and see what the results are. How full are you filling the mags? These single-stack variants struggle for gas due to their very small reservoir.

I generally don't do "e-diagnoses" of GBB problems, because users almost always give me less than useful descriptions of the problem that lack a lot of information that they may not know to notice or look for. It's not practical for me to walk them through entire troubleshooting sessions either, because... well... I don't have that much free time, to be honest. Send it to a gun doctor or someone more experienced who can look at it in person if you aren't able to figure out the problem.

Sorry for the bluntness of the response. I don't play well with clones.
