I'd like to clear a little thing up. The reason the switch broke on Apoc's gun was because when we were first replacing the piston we managed to mangle the little metal lever then bend it back into place. This was BEFORE Stalker ever got a chance to look at it so when it broke easily for him, it had allready taken a huge beating beforehand.

What happened to the switch is really simple and stupid. The little metal leaf that hangs off the switch sits out over the mechbox gears that are exposed on the bottom. While handeling the mechbox to test fire it I pushed the metal bit too far and it got caught on the gears bending the fuck out of it... Normally the trigger can't push the switch that far but when pushing it with your fingers be VERY CAREFUL and you shouldn't have any problems...

G'luck all you M249'ers. It's an awseome gun with one of the simplest and strongest mechbox designes I have ever seen...
