Hello all,

I'm going away for a week and am going to have to disable my VSR as I cannot trust my brother being alone with it. I've already come home twice to find the safety catch off and a loaded magazine in the weapon!

Is there any pin or small piece that I could remove to make it function, but not actually fire?

Currently I have removed the trigger and piston sears and all of the trigger springs so that when you cock it it doesn't actually click and engage, and instead the cylinder slides forward.
Something much simpler would be better though.

Thanks, Milo.

Trigger lock and take the key with you?

^ Thats a much simpler idea.

if you have a trigger lock on it then if the brother primes it the spring will be compressed for the entire time, which isn't good for it. You could just take the spring out, or the piston, or both, and hide it somewhere. It is something I should probably be doing too, because my little sister (almost 10) likes to play with my stuff. My little brother (12 I think) on the other hand is a dork and couldn't care less about anything I own, and doesn't understand why he, my brother, would want to do anything to my stuff. --rant over

Lockable gun case or have a friend hang onto it.

Next time kick his butt and he will know not to do it again.

Just hide the magazines somewhere. There is no point on fooling with the gun if there are no magazines around. Tape them to the underside of your bed. They will never be found.

I would go with taking the spring out. That way the gun can't shoot at all.

Only problem with that is that he has to break down the gun to it's bare components in order to do that. At that point he just might as well leave the gun apart until he wants to use it.

 

[Hawkey3]

It really only takes 5mins to break down take the spring out then put back together. Its not like you are breaking the entire gun down.

Milo, take it to a trusted neighbor's house. Perhaps an adult with no kids? Either that or lock it in your parent's car's trunk.

 

[MiloXC3]

I think I'll just get a case that is lockable to be honest. I wouldn't just hide the magazines because it's reasonably easy to load one bb at a time without the magazine!

Take out the trigger group! Without the search can't stay cocked nor it will fire!
But then again a lockable case is another solution.

There are also solutions similar to this
Although I've never installed one myself.

 

[inthetallgrass]

JUst take the whole cylinder or spring out!

 

[wesley810]

I agree with a lockable gun case; it's also nice for transporting to games and making sure no dust get in your rifle while storing.

Find an inexpensive one for him and tell him 'hands off my gun'. That worked for my son, got him one cheep, needed the bolt rebuilt, and now it's as sweet as my rifle.
Busted Echo1 M28 - $30
Well M3/M7 upgrade kit - $32
Echo1 Cylinder - $17
Total $79 for $175 gun!

My Echo1 M28 got the same treatment, but the base gun was around $100. It started malfunctioning a couple months after I got it. Sometimes getting a used gun and knowing how to fix it can be cheaper than buying it new.

Nice solution richs.

Verbal threats work well.

Or, just leave your gun with a friend.

Nice solution richs.

:yup:
Forgot to mention, the M28 I bought (for $100) came with a 3-9X32 Mil-Dot Red/Green Illuminated Scope and the bipod, and 2 mags.
