Another thing, would you say it's easy and quick to replace the cutoff lever? I am asking because I don't want the shop to tell me it's going to take a week when it can actually be done within a few minutes/hours.

EDIT

Would this be an explanation for the problem I described earlier in this topic?

I can remember this has happened around 2 times during the 6 hours I played.
The time it takes just depends how good the person fixing it is or how much attention they put into it or how much free time they have or how much you pay them. It's the same as every other job of taking the gun apart and disassembling and closing the mechbox. You can do it in 30 minutes or it can take you 3 hours. If the shop is busy, he might not get to your gun for a week unless you pay him more. Who knows.

The link you included is completely different, that is just poor trigger pulling and weak batteries leading to the motor not turning over completely on every cycle because not enough current goes through since the trigger is only making partial contact or even shorting out or the battery is simply not providing enough juice per cycle. If you think that is the issue, just buy a 7.4v or 11.1v lipo battery which are plentiful in HK. It will also reduce trigger lag.
