The gears are okay (and the most expensive to replace). Another $30 and an hour of your time to get a decent mechbox isnt that bad if you have a good exterior going. Given the ~$250 NIB pricetag, I think its a decent deal for a wood+metal AK.

Cybergun really seems to have some horrible corporate practices. Squatting on models instead of collaborating to bring them to market like a gas P90 by crushing the manufacturer with a mountain of red tape, trademarking generic terms like hopup or company names like Marui, and KSC.

Quick recap; what do they do that's good?

Sidebar rant now.

I have no objection to paying "extra" for trades or making sure an innovator or brand holder doesn't get swamped by a flood of China clones. That seems to be a fair deal.

I do strongly object and will vote with my wallet when the trades come in a Coca Cola font and NASCAR sized letters. I'm not some screaming Heckler and Coke or FN fanboy and don't get a boner just from seeing those words across a receiver.

If they aren't right I'd rather have none.
