Just tell him how you fixed yours,
If your car broke down would you ask someone on a forum how to fix it? FFS
Or he could chuck 2K at a sub £500 gun to make it look better?
I make my guns run better & if I want drop free mags / left handed cocking handle / M4 stock / easy load mags / drum mag / ECT ECT. Then I will just make them. Nice & cheap.
I have been trying to brake the gun since I got it, but everything is an easy fix.
If it doesn't work SEND IT BACK.
Or pay me millions to fix it.

Well funnily enough we have had all sorts of issues and problems posted here, some quite intricate and nothing to do with guns that other members have helped out as best they could. Some of us have gone well out our way to help others - even providing professional help and advice for free or sourcing bits that cannot be obtained locally.
Y'see, on this forum we generally all tend to try and help each other - either by replying to posts or PM's. You should try it.
That way when you need help you might just get it.
And yes, sending back is ONE option - though it would be nice to know what is causing the problem.
No offence intended.

If access to car mechanics was as restricted and prohibitive as it is to gunsmiths then you're god damn right i'd ask online what other people THINK might be the answer, and i'd expect most normal people would offer an OPINION on what was wrong if they thought they knew, or even better, if they had the same problem, how they fixed it. Its the way forums work on planet Earth. People offer opinions/solutions and its up to others to decide on whether to use that advice. You may be shocked to know there are entire forums dedicated to cars and their modification and repair.
What i wouldn't expect would be for some smartarse to say "Oh yeah i've had that problem before and fixed it, possibly not in the way the manufacturer wanted me to, but it worked. But i'm not going to tell you how i did it" like some child that won't share a toy
So what if i've spent a ton of money on my gun, i actually use mine for serious competition so why wouldn't i want to get the most out of it?
And a lawsuit from someone that read online about how to fix something, did it wrong and then managed to get the case to court, sounds likely

No worries, wasn't looking to upset anyone.
Just saying (as is Blackstuff) that it's nice to help - I doubt most folks on here have the resources or even the will to sue someone.

Guns are not toys.
So leave the power tools in the garage.
Or it might go bang in your face.
Send it back or take it to a gun smith

Ovenpaa is kindly going to check the trigger group and replace if necessary.

Update: the trigger group was replaced by Ovenpaa and I tested the gun today. First magazine: all 10 rounds fired fine. Thereafter every magazine had one round that was a light primer strike.
This is using the same batch of ammo as before (I am certain it is not an ammo issue as we had several other S1 guns using the same ammo today and none of them had this issue).
So, I give up. I don't know what to do now. Maybe sell the gun for parts?

I take it Ovenpaa didn't do it for free.
If you can tell me that you or someone else haven't messed up the internals
Then I will fix it for a fee. If I fail (no chance) then I will pay to post it back.
Or just sell it for parts, if your interested send pm.
