Airsoft Canada - View Single Post - Piston Teeth (14 vs 15) and Sector Gears (9 vs 10)

Hi gang,

I'm having an issue with an SHS piston matching my SHS 1:16 gearset. My piston is the lightened speed piston with the rear pick up tooth removed from factory, however, the sector gear doesn't seem to want to mesh properly until it hits the 4th tooth on the piston.

I've tried another ZCI piston and a stock DBoys and the stock DBoys is the only one that meshes fine. I've seen that SHS has 14 and 15 tooth pistons and 9 and 10 tooth sector gears. Does this sound more like a QC issue (cause they're SHS) or could it be because I have the wrong gearset matched to the piston?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Take care all!
