Hop up dial

Postby Sneakerwave » Sun Feb 28, 2010 4:29 pm

so i have a WE 1911 Pistol. and the hop up dial keeps moving on its own and it moves to the point where there is no hop up going on and i dont have any range with it. is there an easy fix for this?

If you get loctite, make sure it is blue. That way if you have the ability to adjust it again if you need too. Red is permanent.

Blue loctite is still stronger than necessary, that is getting to the point where you are going to start stripping screwheads if you are not careful getting it out. You want purple loctite (which comes in a red tube, stupid I know).

Red=screwing into metal with very high vibration environments such as engines

Blue=into metal with low or no vibration or into plastic with high vibration

Purple=into plastic with no to medium vibration

Because it was just a red color thread lock compound. Red LOCTITE is for permanent bonding, Blue LOCTITE is for semi-permanent bonding, Purple LOCTITE is for easily removable bonding.
