1) Manufacturer, Model Name (name of weapon on box, and weapon replicated if different from model name)
KSC Glock 26c (compact full auto with selector)
2) Date Obtained
2004
3) Initial Cost
$250 + $50 for 50rnd magazine
4) New or Used
New from then Airsoft Atlanta
Was scared it wouldn't cross the border. But it did.
5) Mechanical Problems (Gearbox issues, hopup issues.. basically functional performance related -- supply date of issue)
About 2000 rounds, gun started to deteriorate in performance. Mostly due to gap that was increasing between mag and gas chamber. This is because of wear on the plastic mag catch and the heavy 50 rnd magazine. I ordered a steel catch, but APEC got it wrong and gave me a TM glock 26 one instead. After a litle modification got it in. Worked well in reducing the problem significantly. Some more thousand rounds after that, and the seal inside the gas chamber started to go. Didn't do anything for that.
6) Esthetic Problems (Paint damage, cracks in body, loose parts.. physical construction related -- supply date of issue)
None. when I got it new. Though, because this is the US version, all trade marks were erased or missing.
7) Rounds fired between failures (think how many bags of BB's used before it failed. If no failure, list rounds fired up to this point)
Started to notice at 1000 and at 2000 replaced mag catch. 2000-4000 slow deterioration due to gas chamber seal.
8) Changes to Internals and Externals (upgrades, mods, dates)
Steel mag catch.
9) Resale Date and Value if applicable.
Sold it for about $200.
10)Notes and Comments (Optional)
Very nice little gun. Liked doing bursts on full auto. Propane used after 2000 rounds. Highly possible it contributed to the seal wear.
