Can anyone tell me if the battery cap slides out of the lower half moon notch &amp; moves into the upper notch after firing? Is it supposed to do this?

While you are firing the cap should stay where it's suppose to but when you break down your gun it's very common for the rod to slip out of place. As long as there's no unusual wear marks and you install it back in the correct spot you will have no issues

Same here. Also keeps turning on laser, killing the battery. I reached out to Tagua but no support or response. I did do some research which led me to work a channel for the weapon. I removed and reholstered BG 380 several hundred times and now somewhat easier to remove.

No it's fixed. On the part top moves back to cock it and then it fires without any motion

Hmmm. It should just close when you do that. Try taking the top off and messing with it to see if it closes that way. If that doesn't work, you might have gotten a defective cap.

I can't remember if I ever took mine all the way out. But as I think/remember it, I thought it simply screws in. You need to turn it like a screw about 10 turns or so to get to the point that is clicks for the grind select. At least I think that is how I remember it...I unscrewed it to clean and then just screwed it back in. But it has been ages so I could be wrong. Sorry if that wasn't too helpful.

mine does the same thing after every 5 shots or so, then I got to release the slide to slide it again. I think it has something to do with the little latch on the side, hopefully someone will give us a definite answer.

Mine did the same thing, I had to keep grinding down the head until is wasn't rubbing anymore. I don't recommend working the action with it rubbing because it can damage your gun.

My vipertek is fully charged and it only fire off on one side. I don't think that it is a defect. I'll get my husband to look at it.

Yes i noticed that to. Mine does not do that. Its rock solid on the rail. I have been shooting 23/4, 3in shells and it has not moved at all and is still spot on. Hope that helps.

I don't have mine near me at the moment, but you can set it up to slide to the left side of the rifle. I would protect it and fire a mag and see if it clears it, if that's the side you want it on. It's not going to like getting hit by spent rounds.

Mine has a button on the trigger that sometimes gets out of place and stops it from shooting. Also if you don't have the tip seated on the work it will not shoot.

Its possible you may have stripped the threads , you could take it apart and check , I have about 50 rounds through mine without that issue.

I've never had any problems with mine. Only time where it didn't fire when I wanted it to would be after several shots in a row. It would just get too hot without my extended battery pack. But I'm happy with mine.

Hi! I'm with Blackfire: here's their official FAQ:Use 3 AAA batteries. Press the green tab found recessed inside the handle below the swivel head. It is pushed down towards the feet and in and may be a little hard the first few times you do it. The green battery cover comes off. Follow the polarity instructions printed inside the battery compartment. To close first insert the tab in at the bottom and then press the cover shut.~Sean

I've had that problem too. There are three "tabs" that make contact with the battery in the tag, one that wraps around the top and two (from one piece of metal) that contact the sides. For whatever reason I had to make sure these were all bent in further than they were, making a much tighter fit, then put the battery back in, smooth side up, rounded side down and it began working again. Finicky, I guess.

Pop off the front plastic cover. There might be one screw holding the batteries in behind a plate. Once removed, there is an electrical connector that needs to be disconnected. The batteries should slide out just by pulling on them. If they don't budge, they might be bulged. In that case, you would need to disassemble the chassis some more.

yes the the cap will unscrew and then you can place the battery in. be sure to tighten snug. you don't want any dust in there, that causes corrosion.
