I am having a run away gun problem. What I believe is the cause is the trigger is only catching the lead edge of the micro switch. So, when I stop fireing the switch is actuating on its own and I have a run away gun that doesn't stop. I have switched out the trigger and this did not fix the problem, reset the board to defalt and did not fix the problem. In need of solutions if any body can help.

What type of E-grip do you have and what type of trigger? If you have the WAS board and installed a Double Trigger, did you take the metal tab off of the back? Leaving that on will cause it to stay on full auto.

I had the double trigger w/o the tab and the stock trigger. I have the W.A.S. board E-Grip. It will even fire with the safe on if jard just right. I have filled a barrel sock a few time just setting the gun down! I am looking for some fix idias before I start trying thing myself.

My suggestion is to call the service department and let them know what your marker is doing. I had the same problems with mine. After they sent me a Sear and Rear bolt with no luck, I called again and was asked to send in my entire trigger housing. Seems I had a bad WAS board and it was replaced free of charge (it did cost me a few bucks to ship it to them). If memory serves I got it back in less than a weeks time.

Took my marker out for the first time after getting it back this weekend and didn't have a single misfire for the first time since I've had it.
