I had the same problem with my piston not engaging a while ago. Try loosening the trigger screws a tiny bit so that they're tight but not super tight. If you utilize the quick-detach function and don't take your trigger off too often then go ahead and put some threadlock in those threads when you find the sweet spot where the screws are tight but will still allow the piston sear to engage.
Hope that helps, it sounds a lot like the problem I had.

Real rifles and the effects of heat came into the discussion when you mentioned airsoft parts requiring break-in. The science behind this is insufficient to the claim because there is no heat involved that would change an airsoft part's performance. Thus, any change in behavior is merely another force acting on said part may it be dirt, damage, moisture or improper (re)assembly. An airsoft trigger would not require break-in as it works flawlessly the day you get it and declines in performance(however so slightly) from the day you install it onward.

In a real rifle, parts (mostly barrels) will have a break-in period where the metal settles. As we all know, metal becomes soft when heated. When you fire a brand new gun that is the first time the barrel has experienced intense heat since it was made so it undergoes some degree of transformation from break-in.caliber45 said:
