Cheers for the help, the only thing I am sure about is the tappet plate, it’s a factory part that I purchased as the original was broken when I first opened the gearbox. Will have a look.

Yeah, checked the feed lips, all good, everything looks straight. Did notice the nozzle rest position changing a bit, sometimes extended, sometimes with a mm or two in the feed path.  The lock ring for the hop up adjustment wheel actually slots into the front of the gearbox, the front of the...

Well I won't be giving up the day job anytime soon I think, can't seem to find the issue with the bb's feeding. Mags are feeding fine, dropping bb'sinto the hop up with the rifle upside down works fine, fit a mag, dry fire. I'm getting 3 to 4 loose bb every mag disconnect so they are getting in...

Well, the new 16awg silicon wire is a bit too thick to lay along the gearbox, will have to save that for Mosfet install as the signal wires are much thinner, so repaired the original wiring and tested it.  Cut off lever working well now, but have major feed problems, both the HiCap and midcap...

It’s a TM, bought in Tokyo and used in Tokyo..... the magic TM dust is at FULL POWAAAA!!! i would sure like to see it in action, wouldn’t like to get hit by it though.

Thanks for all the advice so far. I just got my 16awg wire delivered today so I think I'll get that installed, wire it a to deans, and see what happens with the cut off lever mod I've done already. TBC

With the way G&G designed the trigger set up on this thing you’re lucky to feel anything, there’s a fair few non solid connections and all the slop adds up. Just checked gearing, it’s right around 16.7 to 1 by my maths.

Actually I didn't know that Davegolf but I do now! Gears are stamped 16-1 but I'll do a physical turn count and check. The M14 trigger bar system G&G has has obviously gone through some design changes. Some exploded parts views I have pored over show an additional spring in the system...

The gear set is 16:1, motor is a G&G Hi Torque, not sure of the spring rating. It was converted to a DMR before I got it as a bone-yard non working gun. It's a pretty hefty, spring,I have an M120 in the spares box and it's stiffer that that. I have already made some adjustments to the cut...

Exactly why I asked, you'd have thought active brake for a dmr would be a good thing. Thanks for the input, I'll keep investigating.

Slowly working through the G&G M14 faults and making progress, but on a test fit I managed to jam one of the motor wires between the stock and gearbox and stripped the insulation off. Decided to rewire as it was a bit of a shonky job to start with but while stripping out the wiring thought...

Welcome to the forum, my last day out I met a 72 yr old chap who, while not exactly at the sharp end breaching doors, had a good eye and provided excellent longer range support. There's a role for everyone in Airsoft. I have a Specna edge series, good bit of kit for the price, have not...

Update on progress, the tiger stripe paint job came out ok for a first try, then onto the gearbox. Put some new bushings in from @ak2m4, just the job. Re-shimmed the gears, had to modify my new tappet plate as it had a tab on one side that didn't fit, no worries. Got it back together and it...

Specna midcap and HiCap polymer S-Mags fit just fine in my Krytac.

Been dipping a toe into DIY teching, tried spraying for the first time. G&G SOC M14 tiger stripe attempt #1. I'll install the longer barrel group once I get the gearbox sorted out, using the short SOC barrel assembly here to see how the stock looks with everything installed.
