Stucked BBs or not feeding...

hello guys (if question is allready posted here, direct me there).
i have a g36 like my friend. we both use 0.28 guarder bbs, guns are slightly upgraded (barrel, hopup, spring...) and we kinda changed allready 4 or 5 magazines since they stop feeding bbs into gun. We bought a pack of new dboys magazine and yesterday we have a fight and after an hour or so problem is here. Gun is simply shooting "blanks" and after a five or six shots, bb finally go out (sometimes it just drops two feet away . it doesnt matter if single or burst fire.
Everybody here talks about faulty bb. Mostly. Is there more solutions?
Let me say that this problem is NOT present from begining...it just happen about half a year ago. Just from scratch...:roll:

Ive heard that guarder bbs are slightly bigger than the other bbs and that they work fine in guns without tightbore barrel upgrades. Maybe that is it.

I thought Guarders were slightly smaller.... Cause they seem to feed fine in my Glock which is really picky with brands/tolerances of BB's (I have a standard barrel but the feed ramp is picky with size of BB's that are run through it).

@OP: Have you tried another brand like Airsoft Elite or Excel? See what kind of results you get with those BB's and if they feed fine then it's your BB's otherwise I would suspect it's a hop up issue of some sort, maybe you need to take it down and reseat all of the hop up components and try again or something got broken while installing the hop up unit.

that would jam the barrel.
ngc2392 needs to specify if the problem is a jammed barrel or the mag not feeding BBs into the hop up chamber.

another cause of misfeeding are upgrade hop up units. mostly they suck. keep it stock.

Try different BBs
Guarder BB's are larger than normal, don't work so well in tightbores

Yes, jimski is right, i didn't specify exactly...it's the mag not feeding bbs into the hopup. I've upgraded my hopup last year (friend just amonth ago), i think we both have guarder hopup rubbers. But, we both gave guns to "experienced" guys to do "dirty work" for us. only solution is wrong BBs. we do live on another side of world and here they say that guarder has a lot of fakes BB's in the market.

Sounds like a lube issue, either your hop up rubber needs a bit, or your mags do. You can do both by putting some BBs into a small container, pour silicon oil on them to coat, then load into you mag, then shoot them out (just for the first mag, the rest of the mags load with oily BBs, then unload and move to the next mag). After all this, you'll need to shoot a few mags worth of 'dry' ammo to get your hop up working properly again.
