The other possibility is that the commutator is damaged or not manufactured smooth or round. less likely the armature could be just slight off from being straight, or the bearing / bushing that it sits on isnt seated correctly.
Their was a post by KOS MOS on where to find replacement motor brushes. If it's a more sever manufacturing defect you are SOL unless you want to DIY a fix

I tried CA and Marui brushes on the motor and those burned out in a couple hundred rounds. Sounds like I got two crap motors in a row.
