adamge Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Here's my latest nagging issue with my Versa Max. Has anyone seen this before and knows where I should start addressing it? I'm experiencing a new kind of Versa max malfunction this year. The malf is, I'll be shooting, and randomly the gun will go bang, cycle what feels normal, I pull the trigger for the next shot, no bang but I hear a shell pop out of mag onto lifter, I rack it, no shell comes out of chamber and it feeds the new one on lifter, then it runs again. So for some reason pulling trigger isn't releasing a shell out of mag on occasion. I'm currently thinking mag spring or something in the trigger group, because I swapped the magazine and trigger group from my A gun to my B gun and the B gun did the exact same thing within 10 shots.

adamge Posted May 27, 2019 Author Share Posted May 27, 2019 Interesting, google-fu found me another report of this same problem. Though I'm experiencing it with hot handicap birdshot rounds. Crazy part is I replied to the topic. I might try removing one of the shell latch springs like the guy says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsampson Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Replace the mag spring every few months, or prior to every major match. Especially if you have a tube extension. The spring wears out and they are cheap to replace. Start there, everything else will follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
