new systema revolution gearboxes for sale at airsoftatlanta. its pretty darn expensive, the price of a good AEG. I may have a go at this... http://airsoftatlanta.com/parts_aeg.htm#mechbox -------------------- "The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

Looks to be pretty spiffy if its all its cracked up to be. Though I know I won't be the first. My hats off to the first one that takes the plunge on this thing.

QUOTE (Horsem4n @ Jan 1 2009, 11:57 PM)  it may be expensive, but remember? redwolf said they are supposed to be 500... in HK... That was the MSRP i believe. We were all expecting it to be just a bit cheaper. I dunno, with the release of the new TM m4 im holding back on this. My conventional AEG's are fine enough for me. I was really and i mean really excited about this product up until the date that i found out about the new marui m4. Hope to read review of this fairly soon although ive already owned ptw's so im pretty sure i know how this one is going to pan out. -------------------- Wasted__youf: "seriously, who *fruitcage* cares!

it'd be nice if AA actually wrote anything about WHY it's the best gearbox ever.

No thank you. I think the price is quite silly.
I wonder what the cost to manufacture it was. |

Too pricey for a GB, even more I you consider it costs as much as the new TM SOPMOD...

Research much...
As the chap said: Light gate mosfet of fancyness +1, Piston Of Indestructibilty +1, No Tappet Plate Perk and +1 Gear. Supposed to give you a PTW in a non PTW shell. So yeah, not really just another gearbox.

I (and almost everybody) Agree in thats not "just another gearbox", but I still think 500 bucks is still a bit of... "pricey" for "just" the gearbox.
Maybe someone should install it on a "Dboys" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) -------------------- Perk list: {Pack rat} {Dedicated} {Tail end Charlie} {Customizer} {Hippie} {Treasure hunter} {Engineering and demolitions} {Death or Glory}{Noble Sacrifice}{I Mean Business}{Wise Old Man}{First Do No Harm}{Fortunate Son} |

Ive seen a few strip but TheWarStore has sold a ridiculous number of PTW's, so some are bound to have a problem, but they were all with the "challenge kit" so you can write that off to personal failure. But the gearset is the awesome part, the gearbox is designed to allow the gears to be bigger and stronger, and they are actual machined hardened steel gears not this fake garbage, I haven't seen one with the slightest bit of wear beyond the finish scratching off a little, and that was after fielding it for a year with the red cylinder. -------------------- Shop at the WAR STORE! sponsor of Op: Irene and Eastern Coast WE Distributor!
