So, I was testing out my new FAMAS (thanks to Savage ), and I noticed some weird things about. Now, these are really just nuisances, and otherwise the gun works like a dream, but I'd still like to fix them.
Basically, it does not work on semi-auto. Like, at all. I've read that a common problem is that they'll crap out on semi, but then you shoot a burst on full auto, switch it back and problem solved. But in this case, it just simply won't fire on that setting. Switching back and forth does nothing. Nor does releasing spring tension.
Secondly, when it's firing on auto, every few bursts or so it seizes up and quits shooting. I found that if I just hold the trigger down for a second or two when it's frozen like that, it will start firing again.
I haven't popped it open yet, but I'm thinking it could be that the selector switch is bust. Then again, I've never had a FAMAS before, so please, suggestions, any advice will help.
