If this is the dpms 1 ther is a switch on the back of the grip where it makes the loop (between the thumb and index finger) you need to puch it up like 4 times till it is easy to do.

If it's a clicking - it could be a number of things. Need more info.

High pitched whine - gears, if so, you are fucked.

Quiet like, rapid whizzing - motor engagement, look at the bottom of the grip, there's a 1mm hex screw. Get an allen wrench and turn the screw in until the gun starts firing, and then  continue to turn it until the whining noise goes away and it sounds fluid.

If it's something else, I dunno.

Battery charged?
