"You can get it upgraded at evike.com but the gearbox that come with the Echo1 or A&K M249 is already reinforced. Use it until it breaks, evike sells the reinforced complete gearbox if you ever break your gearbox. The gearbox is really strong already.

"how do i get a special order from evike to reenforce the gearbox?

"The gearbox isn't reinforced but if you ask them to reinforce them for you then they will. You just gotta pay for the labor. Still.. it's a pretty good deal =D

"great gun, heavy, accurate, good ROF, very powerful.
ranger grip on this is pointless cuz it sits so far forword that unless u have arms like a monkey u cant really hold the grip with a full stock to yr shoulder... RIS is a much better idea... mine looks fantastic with the RIS on it and the upgrade options range from grenade launchers to lasers and grips(note: if u want a grenade launcher u need a riser mount)

"Gun is amazing.
Box mag that comes with it is awful.
All in all, 4/5 for mag issues.

"Had this gun for about 5 months. I got the mk46 variant. Surprisingly one thing I will say is that I fit a 363mm inner barrel in it quite easily compared to the stock 320mm. Not sure if it’s just a typo but 363 is the correct inner barrel length as far as I can tell. One thing I recommend is to immediately throw the hopup out and get a bullgear and replace the nozzle too. Other than that it’s a solid gun.

"This is a good gun. I first got it and it ran like absolute trash because my boxmag wasnt working and I was using 9.6V Batteries. but then I upgraded to a 11.1V and it shoots FAST then I realized I cant get people far so I upgraded my hopup for 50$ and it doesnt require too many upgrades at all. One minus you cant get spare parts ever!

"This thing is a beast, by far one of the most sturdy guns I have and it’s gearbox can take some punishment. If you’re getting the middleweight you’re going to get weight, it certainly is a lot to lug around sometimes. But be ready to have out of the box issues, particularly with magazines. The box magazines that it comes with are junk and can’t feed. The only solid fit for m4 mags that I have found are majority polymer mag hi caps, be prepared to buy a couple of those.

"I bought this about 6 months ago and had very few things break on it the two things that broke were the carry handle and the motors gear teeth. The handle was a simple fix and the motor was too if you know what you're doing when it comes to internal work. If you are new to mod work don't try and fix it it's very hard to find guides online. however, the whole gearbox comes out very easy and changing the motor was not too bad. on this, the battery is wired to the stock off the gun it uses Tamiya for the plugs. I would not recommend this being your first airsoft gun as the mid-weight can get heavy if you play long games and if something breaks it is harder to find parts but not impossible. Also, do relly on the Facebook comments for info about the airsoft gun they can be dated and some comments are not correct or they are talking about a different model of firearm.
