The leaking mags are a POS...but quite easily fixable (takes me abour 20min to do up a half dozen).
Sorry to hear about your nozzle...what broke on it? Did it split, did the tip break, was it the feeding foot thing that picks up a BB? Did it break on a misfeed/double feed with a BB not making it into the chamber?
I have noticed that the WE rifles have "tightened up" a bit in tolerances...and I think it's a huge mistake. These things work best when there's a bit of slop to let the parts move freely. It's like a stock pistol vs. a CNC super tuned pistol...the really tight setups will perform better, but the fine tuning is just not practical on a mass scale.
With these things I'd take one with a bit of slop over a really tight fit anyday.
On a personal rant...I'm sick and f*cking tired of fixing/tweaking/tuning "upgraded" RATech parts. What a PITA. They're pretty, they're solid...but they're not to specs that f*cking work well in most setups. And I really dislike trying to fix something that someone else has already "fixed".
