knowing how to take care of a gun and knowing that the plastic TM reciever on the armalites is stupidly weak are two different things.
Regardless of how long you have been in airsoft, it doesnt chage the fact that TM armalite body tabs are known to break.
Doesnt take 5 years experience to know the flaws of plastic bodies.

Hahaha, don't worry it takes a lot more than a couple words typed by you to get me worked up. And now for something completely different:
My point in all of this is that saying that all Armalite tabs will break right away or that all Armalites have extreme amounts of barrel wobble is simply not true and making these false claims to noobs just isn't right, why spread such information?
I do agree 100% with you that the tabs are one of the many weak points of the Armalite series but with proper handling and care a plastic body is perfectly fine.

Okay so you've never fielded the gun but you broke a tab, do tell how you managed to do that? Was it per chance when you were closing the 2 halves of the gun you forgot to basically "tuck" the tabs into the lower receiver before snapping the 2 halves together? |
I got my gun used, And it had trouble with the black gunk all over the connectors, An when me and my buddy pulled apart the gun, one of the tabs was already broken off, We still have the tab, and we're going to try securing it back on with a very high strength plastic glue that I've got, Then we're going to reinforce it with a small peice of aluminum.. Hopefully that'll work.
