VSTank Airsoft Version

Post by Reading5300 »

Not sure if this is the correct forum but I just bought a VSTank German Tiger I Airsoft version and the gun has stopped working after only about 20 bb's. When you press fire it just clicks like there is some thing catching. Can someone tell me I'd there is a fix?

Thanks,
Matt

Sounds like a jam , inverting the tank and shaking /firing it might dislodge the beggar .

Those 20 bb you fired..Did you ,go find them and used again. If so that hasn't help. Used once and throw away as it only takes a little dirt to jam them.
As said if it dosn't free off . Its going to be tools out pull apart and free by hand.

These pictures show a VS gun(same as HL) and the feed tray inside the turret. If you can hear the gun cycle and then a single "popping"noise the gun would seem to be working. This then indicates a jam in the feed tray. Turning the tank upside down and a sudden strike with a screw driver handle on the turret roof beside the copula may dislodge the jammed pellets.

Notice the arrows,the arrow pointing toward the gun,this is the pellet Shute and where the jam occurs. the other arrow points to the tray under the copula where you add ammo.

Is there an instruction manual on how to take this apart step by step?
