[macmighty12]

well i just took aprt my gun to clean it after a long day and i put it back together and oiled evrything the right way (this is liek the 12 time takin my gun apart, so i do know how to put it together) but it seems like there is somethin rubbing on the striker. it is harder to re-cock the gun then it was b4, but i oiled it, the front bolt, sear, and the insides of the recievers and it still does that. i checked to make sure my screws arent too tight, so i have no clue what the problem could be im just worrid that if i do play like that, it will wear my parts down from the grinding of the metal can u please help me if u know a possible answer to solve this ????

thanks

i had that problem
i took it all apart and put the power tube in first then put in the 2 little screws that keep it in place after that i just put it back together and the problem was gone

so ur sayin its the power tube????

if so what do i do just unscrew the power tube from them 2 cres on the outside of the gun then screw it back together??? whast the point of that(im not sayin ur wrong) im just curious

Put in the power tube first before you put in anything else and put in the screws b/c i didn’t do it and there was some friction that made it really hard to cock the gun after i put it all back together. i just took it apart and put in the power tube first and that seemed to fix it.
it might not make sense but it worked for me.
