sonofsammo Posted July 8, 2018 Posted July 8, 2018 That's me! There isn't a gun I can't break, it seems. Today, my Vector died. She screamed a horrific high pitched cry..... Then fell silent (well, I stopped pulling the trigger). We'd been a fantastic team and had been rather successful. Until whhheeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! Nothing but noise. No BBs. Something was wrong. From what I have learned, it is likely that the bevel gear has stripped. This seems to have happened to others at around the 1000-1500 round mark. Which is nice. It's annoying, but at least it sounds fixable. Will see what the shop says tomorrow. And then we'll see how long it lasts.

To be fair other airsoft priorities have taken over
Supporters Adolf Hamster Posted July 8, 2018 Supporters Posted July 8, 2018 I did that twice in the space of half an hour last week.... My normal average is to break 1 gun per skirmish day....

MILITATED Posted July 8, 2018 Posted July 8, 2018 Note to self: Do not buy second hand guns from @sonofsammo ? Edit: The emojis can be put in italics as well?!
Supporters Druid799 Posted July 8, 2018 Supporters Posted July 8, 2018 After 18yrs of playing I’m STILL a total mong when it comes to tech work , hence I stick with my TM recoils ! ?
Wo1f Posted July 8, 2018 Posted July 8, 2018 Out of the 20+ I’ve owned, I’ve broke a couple of nozzle return springs in the space of 2 years. Oh and I lost a detent once..
lukeB Posted July 8, 2018 Posted July 8, 2018 I remember the first time I took my CA m4 apart and watched half the gearbox fly in different directions. I have no intention of opening my krytacs, but I'm tempted to get something cheap just to practice on.
ghostwalker Posted July 9, 2018 Posted July 9, 2018 Sounds like my mate rob last Sunday goes out to chrono. One of his 2 1911’s vents all over the place gets into the field using his Bolt Recoil m4. At some point it just gives up. It had been iffy all morning. Swaps to his mp5 at lunch. Running it on 11.1s with a burst wizard mosfet. Suddenly just eats it’s gearbox. Finishes the day with his spare 1911 and his reliable old tm recoil m4.
