KWA KP8 NS2 misfeeding

I own a KWA KP8 NS2 and i recently made the switch over to propane. It works great except for one thing, it only shoots one BB every two cycles (pull the trigger bb shoots out, pull trigger again slide goes back but no BB shoots). I have the metal mad bull adpater (http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=4796).

Is there any upgrade i need to make to my gun? If not, any suggestions on how to fix it.

Thanks

I had the same problem with mine, but it was easily fixed by spraying silicon oil on the gun and mag.

You might want to clarify where you sprayed the oil, was it just down the barrel and on the feeding mechanism of the mag? It helps when you're specific.

Yea, your right, sorry.
I took this lubracant ==>http://www.airsoftpost.com/product_info.php?cPath=27_130&products_id=24183
and sprayed it at the lip of the mag and where the bb's would sit in the mag. Then I slid the slide back and sprayed the hop-up unit(I turned the hop-up off when I did this) and the slide.

[user error 404]

The correct way is to put a few drops of silicon oil inside of the adapter every few mag fills. Doing it your way negates the hopup's proper function.

But I turned off the hop-up before I sprayed any lube on it. Is the bucking still getting lubed?

Yes, it is. Barrels and the adjoining part of the bucking should remain dry except when being cleaned.
