    Ok. So I just got a KSC G26c from a friend of mine. Fires great on semi. When I flip it to full auto, the thing shoots about three rounds and jams about half cocked. I've done everything short of soaking it in silicone oil. Any solutions?

    Could be your bbs or its not properly lubricated. Could be a problem withe the nozzle as well.

    When you say jams half cocked do you mean the spring is compressed?

    If I recall those things are silicone eating monsters, try lubing it pretty heavily

    It is hard to explain really. I've lubed the s**t out of it to no avail. I believe the air nozzle is not sliding back as it should. I have noticed that while disassembled during a recent lube fest on it, that it doesn't quite slide smoothly.

    When it jams is it pushing a second bb into the hop up that already has a bb jammed in it?

    Ok good description of what's going on. When fired on full auto the air nozzle doesn't slide back like it should. Pulling the slide back and manually pushing the nozzle back in place make it fire again. I've lubed the snot out the area and it still does it.

    Probably a damaged or misaligned air nozzle. No one can really tell tho until they look at it in person tho.

    I ask because.... Just because it says 100% silicone doesnt mean it doesnt have any other additives. If it is not airsoft silicone it could be the issue. All the silicone oils I have purchased from an auto parts store and tested that were suppose to be "100%" had additives that damaged plastic parts and some actually ate the plastic. So you may think you are lubing it but really your not!

    try a different battery. i've had bad batteries get stuck on semi-auto.
    also, make sure your motor height isn't set too high

    UM..... That might be hard to adjust the motor height or change batteries in a gas gun!

    Thanks Rhino for the help. After lubing, working it in and letting it set a bit, it's firing like a champ. Fired six clips without a hitch on full auto. I'll be in on Thursday to see if that extended mag will work. Very Happy
