Great, mystery solved!

It must be the CYMA CM.03 mechbox then? or at least an improved .028... reinforced gears etc., even better than the original CM.028 (which was still a V3 TM clone - Kalnaren - Azaroth meant the CYMA CM.02, I am sure, which is a V3.)

I guess that cheap and nasty looking plastic has some surprising properties. This just leaves the question, how on earth is it so reliable with cheap materials???

And the other problem... I have just wasted around $100 on upgrades I didn't need. Great. and the one I potentially needed to match my new piston head, a cylinder head, I neglected to get. I hope the stock cylinder head maintains its seal better than the stock piston head. Perhaps with good greasing...

Consolation is I suppose I get even more certain reliability and an fps/rof boost? I am getting steel bearing spring guide, polycarbonate bearing piston head, shims, double oil channel bushings, air nozzle, guarder hop-up, 16 gauge wiring, deans connectors, new battery, some superlube, and a king arms 70 rnd magazine. I guess it can't hurt reliability.

Can anyone tell me how to de-grease the original mechbox without using petroleum based solvents? I can't think of any solvents that would not damage the rubber O-rings etc.
