As for replacement; VFC has some nice "auto shimming" gears with springs on them that will do all the shimming for you. Get this set if you want, it should be compatible but I can't guarantee 100% if fitment will be 100% right due to tolerances of different brands. http://airsoftgear.ca/index.php?main...roducts_id=957
Otherwise Element actually makes a pretty kickass "economy" gearset. I have a set of Element Torque gears in my gun and it shoots pretty well.
Modify also has a "modular" gearset that is a different take on the "auto shimming"/preshimming gears but the danger is that if you break one gear the whole unit is toast or something. http://www.airsoftparts.ca/store2/in...oducts_id=1226 |
If you hold the bolt open, you are also enabling the spring tension release which basically disables the anti reversal latch. So if you fire and release the gears will spin "backwards" as the spring tension is relieved. If you fire again while the gears are spinning backwards you will put a lot of stress on the gears.
