I just pulled my KJW M9 vertec from storage and after gassing up, it doesn't seem to be cycling properly. It will fire when the trigger is pulled but the slide will not blow back enough to rechamber another round. The slide only comes back enough to put the hammer back to half cock but will not cock it completely. All the usual suspects; low propane, bad mag, worn/damaged seals, lubrication, rocket valve and such have been checked and ruled out. I have tried dry-firing the gun but the slide still refuses to cycle completely. I don't feel any significant resistance when the slide is manually racked so I doubt there is any obstruction. Anyone have this problem before?

thanks
