Great, thanks now that may actually be the problem. hmm I guess Im gonna start studying the manual to figure the mechbox out. Ive got to learn that some time and it might as well be now, eh.

Well good luck my friend, one piece of advice about the V6 - when you have removed all the screws...stick a screwdriver down the back where the threaded hole is on the back of the spring guide and hold it firmly...i didn't do this the first time and ended up with a spring guide almost lodged in me nostril haha! if u got the driver in there to control the arcing of the spring it goes much more smoothly as your pulling the 2 sides of the box apart. like i said just a suggestion and u can use whatever u like as long as its the right size and works

also it's better to open it with the nozzle facing towards the right side with the motor at the bottom. alot of the little bits that like to escape are seated using the left half of the frame so that just stops them from going everywhere when u get the box open. Also don't lose or reorganise the shims on the gears...the rest is just common sense and good tech sense so have fun

on a side note, I have read that its not recommended to unwind your hicaps the way you did. The springs can come unwound very easily in the p90 hicaps.


Doesn't seem to be your problem but just food for thought.

Thanks Again CJay on the tech info. Hopefully I wont loose an eye opening the mech box eh. I will keep your suggestions in full consideration thanks again. Dart, thanks for that food for thought. I had a feeling doing that wasnt actually a good thing, but I needed to test it one way or another. Ill keep that in mind.

the verdict is in. with all your help, i was able to disassemble the mechbox with quite some ease and found the tappet plate to be broken in half at the opposite end of the nozzle. hence, the reason why it fails to retract when the trigger is pulled. i found a replacement tappet at a local airsoft dealer for under $10. thanks everyone!
