Latest broken gun. Only one week old Went to reload it and the whole plastic back section has disintegrated.
I should be able to get a replacement as its very new. But I also spoke to Maxtact who apparently have replaced that part with a stronger polymer one as this is not a one off. They are hoping to push the new part out to retailers shortly. So the question is... Do I get a new one, but run the risk of getting an older one with the same soft part. Or get the newer part in and put in this one?

Decided on what rifle to get next, but the pound is doing terribly against the Euro. Going to have to hold off for now and hope the exchange rate gets a little better... But there are only 2 left in the entire EU!

Well, since you went there, Sterling has been over-valued for decades.
Here's our 10 year balance of trade. Note that in February this year it was over £7 billion, just in one month - the wrong way.That reflects money leaving our economy, and ultimately it only comes back in when DeM MusLaMiCs (or the Russians and Chinese) purchase up our infrastructure for rent-seeking purposes, which just leads to even more money flowing out.
Those of us who work in exports (you're welcome) would like to see Sterling come down a fair bit yet to make us more competitive in a global consumer market that values low price over high quality.
It doesn't have to be that way: historically we've had period of trade surplus.
I'm sorry if the long overdue correction to Sterling makes toy gun purchases or booze cruises in Shagaluf more expensive, but it's an inevitable result of living in a high cost, high tax economy with an inflated currency.
Also, send 'em all back, mine the channel, mandatory gammon three meals a day, and so on.

@Rogerborg I am aware of that. Interest rates have been artificially low for a very long time to try and increase growth, but it's just not effective anymore and we are trapped as an economy.
In terms of buying a toy gun, this is still a good time to buy... so we'll see.

Put over a thousand rounds in my LMG at home since I upgraded it. First pull of the trigger on its first game day and sounds like the gears/piston is gone. Bloody hell!

I ordered a new ZCI 6.02 363mm for my XM8 Recently. Went to put all the project parts together and realised I had already bought a ZCI barrel in anticipation for the XM8 a month previously...
...I guess i'll need to buy another gun to put it in unless of course I put it in my new Tavor whenever it arrives, would be fairly over volumed though.
