Do You Have a Tokyo Marui M1911A1 parts diagram?

[chriswaugh]

This is a question to anyone out there who would be kind enuph to send me a copy of the Tokyo Marui M1911A1 parts diagrams? Or maybe atleast some sort of detailed description, or a kind of walk through of the gun and how to disassemble it properly to check for the problem. I have moved home and I can't seem to find any of my original information anywhere, and my gun has stopped firing... If you could help that would be great!

First of all, welcome to the forum!

No diagram, but try this:

It refers to the WE airsoft 1911s, but these are near-exact copies of the TM 1911s, so everything you read should be applicable to yours.

Good luck!

Thanks Rekladan!
This looks like just what I was looking for!
Thanks for the help!

No thanks necessary!

Do let us know what you find!

A (probably redundant) tip: since you simply wrote "My gun has stopped firing" it's not easy to pinpoint where your problem might be. Depending where the problem is, chances are you will have to detail strip the frame or the slide, not both!

Good luck mate

Sorry to link to another website, but here is a complete pictorial guide to completely strip a Marui M1911. The WE guide will not help in terms of the lower since they use very different set-ups:

That's pretty good - I don't see a need to go that far with my hi-capa, but at least now I know that I need to be a bit less gentle when removing the inner barrel from the outer sleeve, thanks!

A small word of warning - at the moment, I have a wound (healing nicely) from trying to remove the reverse plug from my Hi-Capa's aftermarket alloy slide. I was pushing against that inner tab of the plug, and when it gave, I scraped one side of my finger against the SHARP lower front corner of the slide...

I don't mean to be graphic, but it is a big enough wound that the scar will stay in place for a few years... but it won't happen again, because I dremelled the slide's channel a bit, to make things a bit more comfy...

Of course the single-stack 1911s from TM have a GI-style guide rod and plug, so sorry for the short hi-jack. But since the article shows a pistol with plenty of aftermarket parts, I think it is at least a bit relevant...

I know that the Guarder slides have too tight a fit with the guide plug. I prefer some other brands of slides that have better tolerances (Shooters Design and PGC/Pro-Win).

I have found that an everyday wooden chopstick is an indispensable airsoft tool.

LOL Am I right in assuming that you push the plug from the front with it? :D

I found a thin, handy plastic rod, that works nicely..
