Did you assemble the PR yourself, or buy it ready made?
If the latter, try the guide (in reverse
) I link to in my sig to get to the wires involved.

I have a G/P Pulse rifle with a TM thompson, the magazine is far to tight when inserted and takes for ever and a lot of strength to remove, i loosened the shroud it was not that, it seems the slot that grips the T shaped part of the mag is to tight any ideas of how to rectify this? im thinking i may have to somehow sand something |

Sand down the T-shaped part of the mag a little bit... You'll see paint wear anyway on the bit that needs shaved down. |

I take a drill and run it up and down the T slot on the thompson to open it up, just get one a tiny bit larger than the track... I think 5/32" but let me double check. M |

It's held by screws, so removing them should enable you to sort out the wiring: http://www.medwaypvb.pwp.blueyonder.co. ... G2591b.JPG |

Yes saw that the prob is could not get the shroud completely off sorry I was vague there I will just if need be cut off the connector that's there and replace with a new one it will mean longer wires but I will adapt it |

I ended up doing that with mine as the supplied connector was really flimsy & a wire became detatched the first time I used it! If your problem is definitely at, or close to, the connector then it's an easy fix. Just stagger the joints, solder the replacement connector on & cover each joint with heat shrinkable sleeving. I got my replacement connector from a branch of Maplins for just over £1 if I recall correctly. Cheers. John.  P.S: Glad you got soreted out with a PR in the end. |

Thanks john its the connector its self the plastic that covers the wires and the metal bits has disintergrated, this is obviously due to age so a new conecctor is def needed |

I see. Just soldering a replacement on would be the quickest fix then. It may not just be the age of the connector though. From the outset I thought mine looked really poor quality & was proved right when I first connected a battery! You'll see the likes of the Maplins one's are much better.
