DON'T FUCKING OPEN YOUR GUN.
You risk losing parts.
You risk breaking perfectly good parts.
You will waste money buying the WRONG parts thinking you know something you don't.
After totally fucking up your AEG please for the love of fucking god, don't bring it to a tech in a fucking plastic baggie.
We will charge you more.
You will be charged for missing screws, springs, adjusters, shims, broken pinion parts from attempted reassembly, and time it takes to find out how the fuck to put your gun back together especially if it's a proprietary one of a kind gun with a pain in the ass proprietary gearbox with no replacement parts available on the market.
Save your money and bring it to a tech to have it done right the first time.
end of rant.

I was this client at one point.
The risk was calculated but man am I bad at math.
Funny thing is that pesto was the one who fixed my gun in parts when I messed up.
Great post btw Pesto. Just want to let you know this post has made its way in .doc form and is now circulating Facebook as well.
Well done.
