Mike_West Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Well, it's A&K, so I doubt they'll screw it up (they're not Boyi or Cyma, to name a few manufacturers who seem to have a problem with making a working hop-up). Link to post Share on other sites

My CYMA AK has a TM compatible hop-up which works like a charm. Link to post Share on other sites

sekiryu Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 Just saw pictures of the gearbox, and couldn't tell if the bushings were plastic or metal.... Link to post Share on other sites
rwham Posted May 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 I'm pretty sure that Mike Wests mysterious "source" said metal.. Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 They're metal. Solid bushings though, not the 8mm bearings that CA uses. Ah well, an entire CA gearbox is $330HKD over here. Link to post Share on other sites
Bravo117TR Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 That's the question now isn't it.. If there aren't any reviews a few days after release, I may just have to write one myself, so either way you will know. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> indeed it is. after you write your review, why dont you send me the gun and ill write my own on it...just hope the gun doesnt get lost in the post on the way back Link to post Share on other sites

lineman66 Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 holy jebus! those look like plastic bushings! man the ChiMan companies are hardcore! Link to post Share on other sites
rwham Posted May 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 Plastic bushings. M150. What could go wrong? They better do something about that... EDIT: LOTTA plastic in there. Sure that's the M249 GB? Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 They're metal. Solid bushings though, not the 8mm bearings that CA uses. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> METAL SOLID BUSHINGS. NOT PLASTIC. Link to post Share on other sites
MDK_Marshal Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 I gota admit, Darklite, they do kinda look like plastic to me. However, I'm not one to add to the rumor mill, so if you say metal, I'll trust your word. You've yet to lie to us, so... yeah! Link to post Share on other sites
sekiryu Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 There are such things as non-solid bushings? What, like liquid bushings? Link to post Share on other sites
Munitions Man Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 So does anyone have an expected price on this thing? As long as it's cheap even if the internals are crappy you could just swap them for the G&P or CA. Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 There are such things as non-solid bushings? What, like liquid bushings? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Or bearings. Link to post Share on other sites
sekiryu Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 Bearings are still solid Link to post Share on other sites
Rapier Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 Nope, Bearing Bushings are not solid, they are many small, moving parts, not one solid part. Link to post Share on other sites
