    How's the CP99 you bought in that bundle, is it a runner? I need the base of the mag and the brass screw for mine and Chambers are out of stock

    If it's a gonner can I buy the spares?
    if it was a gonner you could have had the bits,
    unfortunately its as good as new, bar a little cosmetic damage.

    i need to order 2 of some items on chambers and they've only got one in stock and i cant put them on back order until they are out of stock.
    might give them a ring tomorrow or something

    cheers, i need to work out whats wrong with the colt before i order bits so i can save on postage.

    the only problem is it wont fire in double action.

    when the side is opened up without a co2 thing in there you can see the trigger bar going back and forth, however it doesn't go back when the trigger is pulled in double action, instead it just goes up a couple of mm, when i stick a screw driver down there and push down(down as in to the bottom of the gun) it works fine.
    the other thing ive noticed is it works in double action if the hammer is pulled back a cm(not fully cocked) and then put back to the rest position, it seems to catch hold of something on the hammer.

    is it the trigger bar that's worn out or is there something missing from the gun??
    or none of the above.
    anyone got any ideas?

    Sol,
    all the multi-shot double action Umarex guns I've stripped have a spring or sprung mechanism to bias the connecting rod so it catches the lug on the hammer on the pull but can ride over or under it on the return.

    I can have a look at mine if you like, i didn't take photos when I stripped it and can't remember the mechanism
    Time I had it apart again, I've a compensator coming and I want to fit a longer barrel and smooth out the mechanism at the same time

    a couple of pic of the bit your on about would be great whenever you take yours apart, cheers.

    i doubt its causing this problem but there is a bit snapped off the grip safety.

    hopefully its not causing this problem as at the moment the grip safety doesn't need to be pressed in to fire

    no, there was a 1911 in that box of broken guns i got.
    its in fairly good nick as well, and doesn't sound like its going to be too hard to fix, just a new part or two.
