  1. anybody else starting to think there is weight to the rumors that WE make the guns with pure *suitcase* for internals just so RATECH can skim the profits off the aftermarket bits?

     

    Why doesent WE just spend that extra $50-60 ontop of the price of the gun and put decent *suitcase* inside it so you dont get these kind of breakages

     

    I would believe it if this would be the case throughout the entire range but some models work pretty well ootb ( WE M4/M16 OB, G36 ), others need just a few pieces ( one piece trigger cage/M14, extra buffers/hingle plate|SCAR ) and others are almost complete failure ( AK, PDW ) ...

  2. I would say that if you're a conservative player using co2 might be beneficial but if you play use other very short and spaced bursts, imho its not worth it.

     

    Last year or so I went to a game in the Czech Republic and took my CB WE M4 with me, since it was cold there ( -5 at one point ) I tried to use my co2 mags but after a few hours I had to switch to propane cause the low temps and high humidity kept freezing everything, at one point I had to hammer down the carrier forward since the water froze from the co2 and the carrier got stuck.

     

    The co2 mags are more maintenance free but if you live in a cold and wet area, the co2 might create more problems than fix things. I sold all my co2 mags and bought VN mags instead.

  3. There's no difference in terms of blowback/recoil/cycling, the VN mags do behave better in terms of showing cooldown though and even when completely frozen they still function without spilling all the gas they have. The downsides are gas capacity and they will get too cold if you reload them more than 2/3 times.

     

    Regarding the pouches i just use regular pouches and stuff something in the bottom to make some height.

  4. A bit late but for future reference.

     

    If you carefully stick a screwdriver in there and push down the hammer, you can wiggle out the carrier and push it forward. I've done this a couple of times when people removed the buffer/spring/spacer to clean things out or change the buffer tube and then forget to put the spacer back in. Pretty easy if your patient enough ;)
