Blazer Issues

topscreen · 12-20-2009, 09:26 PM

I've had my 1K Blazer a while now and its been good too me. It's probably my favorite gun, when it works. I've named it the Problem Child, because it seems too like too act up. Sometimes it takes 2 trigger pulls to shoot. Too me it seems like its being starved of air, but im using an air-thru grip (granted it was a spare reg that was turned into an air-thru for the time being) because I don't have a high output reg. Would getting a Stabilizer be the silver bullet, or is it some deeper issue?

if the problem is trigger pulls, then its most likely bell housing or switch rod.
unless your having pressure issues, then its reg. but i dought it

ill bet on switch rod.

Have you tried just turning the LPR up a quarter turn ? Problems with recocking consistently are often just not enough pressure.

Most likely your issue. The 1k's take a bit more...

I've done that before, and then when I go out the next week I would turn it up a bit more. It seems like I have too turn it up a bit each week.

I believe there is a point at which it is too high and actuall has the opposite effect. Try backing out the LPR until the gun doesn't cycle at all. Then start turning it up 1/4 at a time until it cycles reliably. Gi8ve an extra 1/4 and you should be good. With the trigger held back, if you push on the bolt it should feel stiff but squishy...

Run a bunch of airtool oil thru the asa also. They heart oil.

Yes I do oil it every time I use. Take care of your gun and it'll take care of you.

I'll try screwing with the LPR, unfortunately it'll have too wait. A blazer is loud when dried fired, and the neighbors don't take kindly to that kind of noise at night.

Edit: this is topscreen, I just posted on my friends account.

If you stick a swab in the barrel, it quiets it right down.

I just shoot into a pillow so people don't hear me.
