Thank you very much. I very much apreciate your help. I have solved all my problems and have listed what I think was the cause of those problems.

I think the issue with the Mechbox not fitting in the lower was due to the Mechbox halves not being pressed securley together.
My original issue with the gun not firing I think was due to a very loose motor wire.

When I encounter one of these gearboxes I sometimes have to take apart and reassemble the box several times before the piston will stay where it belongs.
Yes! I had this issue when I was trying to get it all back together. Motor was spinning fine but not moving the piston back against the spring.

I opened the Mechbox again. Made sure everything looked ok. Reassembled and tried again and it worked.

very odd.
