Reinforced mechbox, yes, and all parts are heavy duty upgraded as well. Add in the fact the weakest link is the tappet plate used, pretty much MOST issues concerning the G&P Armalites I've read on here (and my own experience) is the tappet plate breaks/snaps in half within a few thousand cycles of the gun. Cause being quality of tappet plate used, or a combination of that and an overly heavy tappet plate spring used.
Also found the G&P gears to not be that great, but can only comment on the one SPR I've worked on. At one point a gear tooth snapped off the bevel gear where it meshes with the spur gear, wedged in the spur gear teeth, proceded to shear off every tooth on the bevel gear and fragged the mechbox with shrapnel. Luckily nothing else broke because of it (because after the teeth sheared, the motor spun only the bevel gear, nothing else.)
