not exactly that no semi mofo is the dsg hc05 version
the FireHawk started to appear last April '14 - GiantKiwi got one of the first ones on here
they soon went straight out of stock but a new shipment came in July '14 - my ukara time
the very first ones had a different tactical grip and later ones August/September onwards a plain CM grip
turns out the first ones with Tactical grip had a TopTech sticker on box and fired fairly quick - not amazing but quite good for stock
later ones didn't seem to perform quite as good - yup close inspection revealed a normal regular sticker on gearbox as seen in magwell
on top of that these later std FH's had a 21:1 gear ratio so it was obvious they were firing slower than the first TT FH's
seems like G&G made the first lot to perform really well so it got great reviews maybe
or they thought best tone it down a bit to last but the TopTech one I still haven't busted open yet to check what is so Top Tech inside
both the regular FireHawk's work great on semi & full auto - nice cqb gun
it was when they launched the DSG version in April (was due to launch around Nov '14)
it said in manual no semi - which is daft as most cqb is semi only close up
think they deliberately avoided or changed the dsg gear with no semi cut off cams x 2 to avoid patent/copyright trouble with Riot
who originally created the DSG. SHS & Modify have made their clones of dsg's but they have semi cams on theirs but a slight different gear design
(avoiding direct infringement of copyright/patents)
G&G should of approached Riot - not cheap gears
or at very least got into partnership with SHS maybe - but they didn't and made their own
the first dsg's were very badly finished and I will not be buying another for sure
Only the HC05 DSG doesn't have semi-auto
other std FireHawks work fine in semi - just like a normal G&G Combat Machine
They are ok but also battery location in stock tube is a pain - nice stock on FH & GC16
often people install a black crane nunchuck stock on FH's or like most of out stuff a fixed stubby M4 to chuck in block batteries
