I have a TM MP5K, the only time i have seen something similar to this is if i am cycling it fast in semi, it then would fire till i put it into auto for a sec. i found that if you keep the trigger depressed for a fraction of a sec more, it dosent happen.

but this might not be your issue.

is your gun like this all the time? or only after you have been firing alot in semi? or dose it happen in full auto too?

edit :- also, how old is the gun? any mods? what battery? how old is the battery?

Its a brand new battery but gun is a few years old. And no it just seems to fire when it wants to. The battery is a vp racing battery 1600 ni-mh 8.4v. 7 cell battery

Trigger contacts might have burnt out/corroded, giving intermittent connection

Would explain the random firing/non-firing

is this happening in semi and auto?

like Nutster said, sounds like maybe the switch contacts need a clean/replacement. but with out seeing the gun/contacts its hard to say.

Yeah happens on semi and auto. Thanks for the help guys

wires may be loose or the motor might not be linked properly or loose, better to check on the internals
