Had my first major break today, and yes, it's major. During a game, the piston wouldn't lock back. Opened up the gun today and a couple broken BBs, some black plastic pieces, and O-ring bits fell out. I knew it wouldn't be pretty. Turns out the very front O-ring on the PDI piston set decided it would detach and disintegrate It got blown out the nozzle and got stuck at the very end of the feed ramp where it promptly blocked the BBs from entering the loading area of the hop up, causing the BBs to jam and break the feed ramp. So the question still remains, How did the O ring come detached, It clearly was glued on as there was no recess for it to fit into so I'm guessing bad glue? So far not really too impressed with TM and PDI's "legendary internals". Now the sears won't engage because the extra half a millimeter the O ring provided is enough to cause the piston to be too far forward to engage the sear. This is going to get time consuming, and expensive.
