I don't want to mod the thing, I just want to get it working again.
Problems:
1:Before I opened it, the trigger would rotate the turret but would not open the air chamber, which is why I opened it to begin with
2: There's a lid thing on the tank, and it doesn't seem to open
3: I can't figure out where this piece goes, it's not in the writeup at all




Any suggestions? The piece is not broken off of something, and I believe it has something to do with opening he cover on the tank, the sliver gone from it might also be a piece missing, I'm not sure. Any help from anybody who actually owns one of these is greatly appreciated.

Internals at bottom of page, thanks a lot oodalumps and Jlego .

The turret rotates and everything without it, but I think it somehow stops the turret once it's gone halfway or something so the holes line up when the air tank goes off. I think I might have to glue the trigger to the pin, because right now the gun won't shoot unless you pull it a tin bit farther than the shell allows. My main problem is the tank cover, how do I have it open? Can I just remove it?

The tank cover opens when you have a Larami dart in the turret. The dart presses a white spring-loaded peg down that moves the tank cover when the turret spins.

That piece you can't figure out goes under the back of the turret. It stops it from spinning backwards.

And like bob said, you're missing an L shaped piece that makes the air release. You can glue the spring or make a new piece.

Instead of glueing the trigger to the pin, try putting something small (maybe a ball of glue) behind the spring on the pin so that it compresses sooner. This will allow you to keep the spring while shortening the trigger pull slightly.

That's pretty much all there is to it. It is rather important though.

Unfortunately, this is a bad plan, because unless you are really careful you'll mess up the timing with when it releases air and when it rotates. That means that if you glue the trigger-valve connection, you can make it so the valve-turret connection doesn't line up when the air is released, which could end in a sm1k that doesn't shoot further than a stock maverick. So just leave it be, it works fine without modding that particular part of it.

Okay, thanks for all the help, I really appreciate it. I will try out placing the piece there, but I'm wondering if the piece had a little bit shattered, because it has a little sliver missing. Bob, email me.

You guys were great in the help, so I decided to make a guide on how to put the internals back, with more pictures than blisters.



You should have 3 pieces, but one has a little lever thing on a torsion spring. This doesn't come apart on it's own, but if it does it's pretty obvious how to put it back based on the following pictures.



Put the turret in.



Put the lever piece in, the lever should be pressed into a groove in the turret.



Put the turret stopper piece in.



And then put the trigger mechanism on. Now your turret will rotate and stop by pulling the trigger.

Thanks again everyone, I'll post a new topic if I need more help.
