Huben GK1 problem...

[Mr.Brocock]

I loaded my new GK1. Then, without flipping the "back" lever, i shot it. Now it is jammed
and dumping all air. Bummer, but my fault. Now what??

Thanks in advance

I should stick to my Brococks!!!

If you bought it from Kelly, he usually sends a carbon push rod. Usually a pellet is stuck between the barrel breach and the magazine. You can gently tap the pellet back into the magazine with push rod. But be careful not to push the pellet back too far, you don't want the pellet to go out the back of the magazine. Keep the lever up so you can tell when the magazine is able to start rotating again.
Also you can call Kelly at Krazcool. He will walk you through the fix.
I have done this 3 times now. Got to remember to put that damn lever down. Lol.

You can take it apart, there is a video on youtube on how to take it apart without removing the barrel and misaligning it.

Be very careful tapping in from the muzzle because apparently if you push the pellet back too far you can trigger the valve and it may fire.

It seems that your post title is somewhat incorrect...right ?
See in red above. NOT...the gun or manufacturers fault...

A little more accurate title might be, "A problem with my GK1, that I caused"...right ?

P.s. - looks like the situation was remedied.

Thanks Jace. I found the video and fixed it.
MikeVV, if you want to edit the title, go ahead. If not, go nit pick somewhere else, Karen....
Accurate..................Please.

Hello, I had the same problem as you on my GK1. What was the solution ? And what was the cause of the problem ?

You could buy the carbon fiber ones but if you have powder burner guns and have the brass cleaning rods it'll work too...it happened to me the other day I carefully put my brass pistol cleaning rod and pushed the pellet in and kept moving the magazine and filling the gun then try firing it did two more mag air dumps on the third try it shot the pellet out and back to normal

I can see it now someone sticks that rod in to clear a pellet and bang, got a hole in the roof,,

Would only stick a rod if the jam causes air cylinder to dump all its air. Try to unjam refill if it dumps all the air out again keep trying until gun eventually shoots jammed pellet....never try this method with air in the gun

I think if you point the rod in a safe direction, wear gloves and don't push too hard, it is relatively safe.
But I only have a low power .177 a juiced up .25 may be a different story.

i use a very gentle tap, while rotating the mag to test if its free, and have a piece of tape on the rod to show its depth limit with and without ammo. i've had to do it a few times, mostly for pellets slipping forward or back out of the mag. never happens on snug slugs tho! those stay put.

Mine was doing the same thing. You need to adjust the cycling screw. On the back of the handle are 2 screws. The one on the right needs to be backed out slightly. My GK-1 hasn't jammed since I made this adjustment, and I find that the tightness of the projectiles no longer matters.
