consulted wege's hi-capa takedown (and also emailed him receiving helpful suggestions) and various other tutorials and have at least managed to make it so you can cock the hammer, pull the trigger and the hammer goes back up as it should do. from this i understand that the leaf spring is aligned properly as before the hammer whould be jammed, so it at least works
BTW. Usually these things work with the firing pin lock removed, because the pressure of green gas is enough to cycle the slide anyways. Removing the valve lock is one way to run green gas without stressing the slide that badly.
It sounds more like your leaf spring isn't pushing the sear properly forward, and that the right finger of the leaf spring isn't pushing the disconnector upwards properly. The combination of these problems could lead to the problems you described: Won't fire, then all of the sudden goes full auto.
had a look at the leaf spring, ive tried it in all manner of postitions (the middle prong) . sometimes it will allow random firing: automatic/semi, the hammer doesnt always stay fully down. other times the hammer locks back after the slide blowsback and after the initial shot it doesnt fire at all.
i think i have success....kind of. seems to fire as it should do (i.e. not in automatic, or when you put the magazine in etc..) but sometimes it doesnt allow you to fire- you have to manualy pull the slideback to get it to fire. so maybe this is a new problem? (all this for a new trigger!!!). probably should point out it has a shooters design metal slide on it so maybe more powerful hammer spring would sort it out?
pinpointed specificaly the problem. hammer works fine, its just when the slide cycles it seems to be pushing down on those two silver parts highlighted earlier causing the hammer to stay down. usualy manualy cocking the slide a few times makes it work.
when i put the slide on, there seems a 50/50 chance that it will allow you to shoot. when it doesnt shoot the hammer stays down as normal but requires pressing down slightly until a clicking noise happens. then it allows you to fire.
Mango can be used to control and maintain all aspects of an organisation's QHSE compliance requirements.
So whatever your needs - be they Health & Safety, Quality, Environmental Management, Food Safety - or all four - Mango is the answer.
Broaden your QHSE knowledge with resources for all skill levels.
Whether you need the latest advanced tactics, a refresher on the basics, or to start from scratch, this is your home for QHSE knowledge.
It is important to remember the distinction between corrective and preventative. The correction must come first as this is likely going to be an immediate action to take place, before trying to stop the same thing happening again.
Once a preventative action has been put in place, this will make it a lot easier for compliance and auditing purposes. The organisation can now show that they are introducing measures to stop any fires happening in the future. This will make an auditors life much easier, and therefore make your organisation run more effectively.
Aviation has a remarkable safety record; however, a growing threat must be urgently addressed: The number of fires while transporting lithium batteries on aircraft is increasing at an alarming rate. You may be surprised to learn that in 2023, an average of two lithium battery fires occur in the aviation system weekly. The Coalition of Airline Pilots Associations and others in the aviation industry are deeply concerned.
The root cause of a lithium battery fire is an internal short circuit that causes thermal runaway. All batteries carry the risk of thermal runaway, which can reduce visibility within the aircraft by generating thick smoke. In addition, smoke and fumes from an in-flight fire are likely to be highly toxic and irritating to the eyes and respiratory system. Smoke and fumes may, therefore, quickly incapacitate pilots and flight attendants unless they take protective action. Finally, batteries can emit sharp projectiles that can easily cause harm to those near a fire.
Especially for Airport risks, environment-friendly, ECOPOL A is the real alternative to traditional film-forming foam concentrates. ECOPOL A is totally fluorine-free. It is not subject to regulatory constraints in force on fluorinated compounds. The performance of ECOPOL A on fires allows direct projection into the hydrocarbon with higher extinguishing results than most AFFF products.
The Fire Weather Index (FWI) System is the basic method of fire danger rating for fire management agencies in Canada. The spatial interpolation of this weather-based system can be difficult in areas where weather stations are sparse. Previous studies have shown that interpolation of precipitation is especially problematic owing to the isolated nature of convective summer storms. Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) has recently developed the Canadian Precipitation Analysis (CaPA), a gridded precipitation product that integrates forecast data, station observations and Doppler radar, to improve precipitation estimates. The objective of the present study was to evaluate whether CaPA is indeed superior to the currently used interpolation method (thin-plate spline), and to assess the impact of the two precipitation estimates on the FWI System for the province of Ontario. Overall, the results showed the CaPA had increased skill in areas of radar coverage. In non-radar areas, where the ECCC station network was much sparser, there were less significant differences between the methods. Precipitation estimates from the CaPA also significantly improved the estimation of the Fine Fuel Moisture Code, Initial Spread Index and FWI in areas of radar coverage, improving estimates of potential fire danger.

You should be filling it upside down. Make sure you're not running out of gas. Since it's a we (may be wrong) it has silent full valves so if it makes a loud hissing sound and or you can see gas leaking you are likely filling it wrong. Make sure you're filling the magazine with the nozzle of your gas canister completely vertical.
I had the exact same problem with that hi-capa when I ordered it. I ended up replacing the piston head on it as it was very loose and gas just escaped either side without making a seal. You might notice a fair amount of gas spray around the chamber when firing. Replacing it solved the problem hope this helps
Spirit Airlines' rapid growth during the last couple of years has not compromised the carrier's profitability. During a time when it is not uncommon for the carrier to introduce 20 new route pairs during a half-year period, Spirit has maintained and grown its profits while undergoing a fundamental shift in its business.
As it continues to turn its attention to the US domestic market, Spirit seems unfazed by JetBlue's moves into some of Spirit's Latin American markets, as JetBlue by YE2013 will compete with Spirit on all its markets from Fort Lauderdale to Latin America. But Spirit's US domestic growth remains unabated, and will account for the bulk of the roughly 22% capacity increase Spirit plans during 2013.
Spirit also declares that it has one of the most enviable cash positions in the industry, which at YE2012 was nearly 32% of the last trailing 12 months revenue. But the carrier's relatively young status in some ways diminishes the prospect of cash dispersion or other shareholder reward, as Spirit continues work to prove its business model has staying power.
Spirit between Jan-2013 and Jun-2013 will introduce roughly 18 new routes, with nearly half of the new pairings originating in Dallas/Forth Worth (DFW). In just two short years DFW has risen to become the carrier's second largest base in terms of seats deployed.
Other markets where Spirit has significantly built a presence include Las Vegas, Chicago O'Hare and most recently Houston. The growth outside of its base and headquarters of Fort Lauderdale is consistent with Spirit's calculus that there are numerous markets where it can stimulate traffic with its low base fares and co-exist peacefully with US network carriers, which are trying to shun the lower-yielding passengers Spirit targets.
That helped drive 33% growth in operating income to USD50 million. Since Spirit launched its protracted US domestic expansion in the 2010 time frame its profits increased 54% from 2010 to 2012 on a corresponding capacity increase of nearly 40%.
Carrier chief marketing officer Barry Biffle recently remarked to analysts and investors that roughly 20%-25% of Spirit's capacity at any given time is deployed to new markets, which would appear to suggest that the time to maturity for those routes is short.
While Spirit has opted for pursuits outside of Fort Lauderdale, JetBlue believes opportunities exist to mine the South Florida airport, especially on services to Central and South America and the Caribbean. JetBlue continues its expansion southward from Fort Lauderdale in Nov-2013 when it introduces service from Peru. Spirit and JetBlue presently compete on international routes from Fort Lauderdale to Bogota, Colombia; Cancun, Mexico; Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic; Kingston, Jamaica; and its focus city of San Juan, Puerto Rico.
