Well you will see that it looks ugly and worn down, you might find metal shavings in the hand guard or in the gearbox next to where that gear contacts. The only way to tell FOR SURE thats the problem is to try another motor/ pinion gear or you are able to rule out electrical problems. If you had some kind of electrical testing equipment (multimeter) you could get your hands on it would help alot and save a lot of headaches. But due to the "buzzing noise" i believe its the pinion gear(on motor). It will get chewed up VERY quickly if you keep pulling the trigger. And will do exactly what you are saying if worn.

When the gun "clicks", Does it sound like the motor is moving at all ? even a little bit?

Also look up youtube videos on motor height adjustment, you could be making it too tight and that will cause things to jam back up after a few rounds.
