Alright, so my primary gun is a hexagon productions ppsh 41. After a while it stopped shooting and there was a few problems with it, including a stripped gear. Okay, I figure the parts it comes with are crap so I upgrade half my gearbox. I start shooting it again after its been fixed just to have that same gear stripped less than 100 rounds later. The gun had jammed
that time around so I thought the jam caused it to strip so I ordered a new one. I just got the gun back a few days ago and tested it out today....40 or so rounds later I hear that same screeching sound and the gun stops shooting.
Can someone please tell me wtf is going on?!?!
Are maybe the other parts too high quality for the gear and causing it to strip? Or is it just a bad piece I'm buying? I'll be happy to provide links of the parts I bought...once evike is back up. the site is currently down.
edit: PROBLEM FIXED. Bushings were out of whack.
