I am sure, and plus we don't want to keep the new gun, we were actually going to return it :)


And it does flush. in fact, you can put the chain in there and it will fire the dart it is on, but just doesn't feed. It pops back into place perfectly afterwards.

Okay, so a friend and I just went back and bought a new vulcan to replace the insides of mine with...giving up hope on the other one.


We replace them, and the NEW vulcans insides refuse to rotate! It sounds much cleaner than the other one, but it still refuses to rotate after being put together, minus a few rotations went it first was started up.


DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT THE HELL IS THIS GUNS PROBLEM? I will get pictures if needed, but it's rediculous


So, I have NEW internals in the OLD gun. But it wasn't just replacing a few pieces, it was the ENTIRE thing. So it SHOULD work, shouldn't it?

Ahhh, I see. So that actually effects the rotating mech then? Or is this just for the plunger mech? I don't see how the spring around the plunger is effecting the lower end of the gun. o.o;

also, if I do have to stretch it...how much do I have to do it?


Currently, my plunger is launching just fine, but the rotating mech doesn't go at all and you can hear something (I'm assuming the gears) rattling against each other as if they are stuck.


If the plunger doesn't retract, which is what the spring makes happen, then the rotation mechanism doesn't cycle properly.

This fix is only for the Vulcan flaw that causes the plunger mechanism to jam in the extended (shell sealing) position. If the plunger is retracting, and the cog isn't turning, then the problem is the little lever with the spring action tooth that rotates the feeding cog. Fixes for that can also be found, but doing so is risky as the piece is fairly fragile.

Hmmmm...well it seems to be my only choice now, otherwise this thing'll never work at all. Would you happen to know where I can find a fix like this then?


EDIT: It seems like the rotating mech (the white plastic piece) is getting caught and stuck. It will not rotate, and clicks when the cog is twisted. So something with this maybe? Is it those jagged edges on it? I'll get a bit of what I mean when I get home.

Okay, I'll start to make sure I've got everything working again before disassembling it.


Do you know what spring(s) wisdom000 is talking about?
