Ive got a stock ics mp5 with a broken piston that ive been meaning to fix for months now and i was thinking it would make sense to upgrade to a piston that wont break quite as easily. I guess ive been procrastinating because of the huge number of different kinds of pistons that are available.

After doing a quick search of this forum im seeing posts about possible damage to gear boxes and other parts when using metal tooth pistons. Would this be true in most cases when using full aluminum or full metal tooth pistons?

is it generally better just to stick with plastic pistons?
any recommendations?
