ive never had torx bits on a customers gun, hence i havent bought them, and I dont mind using flatheads on my one mechbox that needs torx

i dont fuck with customers guns, only my own
some of my personal guns are the best guns you'll ever fire, and others are held together with duct tape and JBweld

YA!!!! I finally manage to take the screw off! It was a pain in the butt, but I manage!

Turn out the tappet place broke... Now I need a new one

I wonder, why don't they reinforce the plastic tappet plate with metal... Specially the skinny part

Thanks guys!

because then other parts on the gear box would have more stress on them. why wreck a more expensive part if u can replace something a whole lot cheaper more times

Was that a "build-off" challenge I just heard?

If your talking about me, it was a v3 G36's gearbox I'm working on. The once I've seen where alen key. So I just assumes it was my alen key's fault for striping/messing up the screw.

Wierd, all my boxes are phillips and and an old agm i have sitting around Is the only one ive had with torx

my best build is a hicappa 5.1 that can hit an arm or knee poking from cover at 120+ feet ;p
next id have to say my AGM MP40 build but I think it needs reshimming a bit and a better barrel, so i cant enter it into any build offs ;p

Really?
I hope its nothing like your previous customer's guns.

Ive gotten enough crap that went through your hands that was repaired in disgustingly shoddy methods that I now refuse any work that has passed through your hands.

Im officially retired as a Gundoc for the last year or two and I refuse pretty much all clones, but I still get piled on and backed up with work because my previous clients keep sending their buddies my way.
Workmanship shows, and after seeing your work, as well as your "repair suggestions," (See prime example below) I cant even imagine how you can even call yourself a gundoc.

Thats the problem these days, anyone can call themselves anything without any sort of controls, and sadly ive seen alot of airsofters who got screwed from supposed "gun docs"

please give me an example
I can say that this isnt true because i really dont work on many customers guns, I've replaced a few pistons and resoldered a wire here and there, nothing much else, so either you're full of shit or you're mistaken
