So i used my polar * at sqa yesterday which was saturday and it worked great but now when ever i shoot it my mags feed a couple of bbs and then it either dry fires or gets a jam. i cleaned the barrel and it still does it. I checked the nozzle o-rings to make sure they were lubricated and they were all good. I even adjusted the nozzle dwell and it still did it, and it can't be the mags because like i said everything worked fine all day yesterday. Can anyone please help me.
Thanks.

What bucking and hop up combo are you using?
EDIT: also what mags are you using?

Does the BB jam in the barrel, or is it unable to feed?

I am using a stock g&g hop up which is usually pretty good with a madbull bucking and i used a echo 1 fat mag and then i used a g&g high cap but like i said yesterday everything worked fine and also the bb jams right inside the hop up unit and it wont shoot.

Have you removed the chamber and inspected it carefully yet?

Do the lips of the bucking while still in the hop up appear to be folded over/in?

Well earlier i took the hop up apart because my nub fell out so i cleaned everything and put it back together and when it does feed and shoot it shoots fine but some of the bb's get stuck in the hop up and the bucking is not folded over. I was thinking maybe it was the g&g receiver because you have to hold the magazine but then again that wouldn't make the bb's get stuck in the hop up.

It could. G&G proline hopup chambers usually fit very very tightly into the front of the FE, did you make sure the back your your chamber is fully inside the front of the FE so that it is flush up against it?

I find that P* don't much care for Madbull Red buckings. How many rounds have you put through the gun?

The lips on Madbull reds are to long so they fold in when the in when a BB is fired causing your jams.
