Hey kenTsui!
Wanted to follow up,with you on my AGM (S&T which is the hub that distributes for AGM) MG42.
Worked with a pretty skilled tech who used to work for G&G who happens to be super OCD about making guns work perfectly. Anyways, I left it with him and here's the initial tweaks and upgrades he did.
Shimmed the gears - he says the gears are pretty solid for being Chinese...recommends running them until they give out
Shimmed the hop up slider so that it doesn't jerk around when trying to slide it..it glides much better and will hold the setting without vibrations moving it
Replaced piston and cylinder head, these he said weren't great and already showing wear even after 5k rounds cycling through it.
Greasing the gearbox (always a good thing)
Soldering the wires to the motor
Installing a mosfet on the trigger.
And for me, most importantly is rewiring the trigger so every time the gearbox fires, the box mag motor winds. Which, as the tech was telling me, was pretty stupid how they wired the trigger. The trigger contacts are copper, but the box mag is actually a pressure button that the trigger when pulled (with good force) pushes the button to make contact to wind the magazine. He says this was completely pointless, costs more money to manufacture, and isn't as effective as just wiring it with the trigger contact!
So anyways, needless to say, he wired the trigger to make it how it SHOULD have been (but better cause he's OCD and gave it much Love and Care)
I get the gun back Saturday and going to a game on Sunday. Can't wait to see how she does!!
