**UPDATE**

So, after feeling like a newb, I realized that sometimes going back to the basics and looking for the simple solution is the way to go, instead of looking for some big bad answer to a problem that doesn't even exist. The issue has been fixed and is now shooting and sounding like a dream (left the 14:09's in there as I didn't wanna take the chance of messing with the 10:44's and having to troubleshoot it again!)! For anyone looking up a troubleshooting thread; There were two issues bumping into one to make it seem like there was something worse going on with the GB. First; the selector plate -> cutoff lever spring was not strong enough to push the cutoff lever back down far enough, which in turn, was not engaging the trigger sled, creating full auto. Solution: elongate the spring! Second; the negative contact wire for the motor was loose, and after multiple shots would slowly fall off the motor post and break connectivity and making it unable to fire. Solution: Use pliers to to make the negative connector wire clip smaller!

Thanks everyone for all your help, it was GREATLY appreciated! I hope I can return the favour to someone else in need like myself in the future! If I need anything else, Ill post up here!

Cheers,

Flarebass
