Default Airsoft Mechanic in Long Beach Area

I just got a Dragunov and was adjusting the Allen screw for the hop up. The screw went too far down and won’t come up

Can anyone recommend an Airsoft mechanic?

The gun is three days old and my emails to eVike have gone unreturned.


Any help appreciated

It sounds like you moved it past it’s threads and is now sitting loose on top of the bucking.
What needs to be done is removal of the inner barrel.
If this Airsoft was a quality made one then there will be provisions to remove the inner barrel. The bucking is more or less a rubber sleeve that sits around the inner barrel and is at the chamber area of the barrel. It normally helps create a seal for the air charge and also provide back spin on the BB in order to help give it lift.
Look for a YouTube tutorial on that particular rifle or one similar on replacing the inner barrel. This will without any doubt cover bucking removal or replacement.
Minimal tools will be needed.

Take it to Tac City in Fullerton. They have some good tech's.

Evike doesn't tech and most likely won't help you. The most you could possibly expect is some kind of dialog about the warranty.

Airsoft master in Buena Park. Not sure if they may be open due to the current situation. AEX is in Carson I believe. Not sure if they are open as well.

AEX in Carson is open from 12-4 and offer tech-mechanics.

I just started hearing not good things about evike’s customer service.

Evike is good for initial orders and that's sorta it. If there's a problem with the initial order or if the product arrives defective, they're great. I've encountered both problems.
