I'm just saying there seems to be quite a few basement metallurgists on ASC recently lol

I agree 100%, not one person has actually tested/emailed to find out the contents (myself included). Merely whacked it on something as a "test" (Or in my case, smashed it on MANY things). You could be right though and I now have lead poisoning from my old Kalash...

Let me know here or PM me with what you find, I'm curious as to what a veteran player thinks of the internals/exterior. I'm thinking of getting another and actually doing some preventative maintenance on it this time for a loaner/backup.

So does anyone know if lead is used in CYMA, Kalash, JG guns? I realize low-cost airsoft and shortcuts are hand in hand but I don't want to get brain damage for a little fun.

they use zinc, not lead (i hope)

Who knows what the actual allow contains (without testing); as with many white metal allows it may contain a small amount of lead (including pewter, which is used in jewelry etc).

It's a low concentration and the the gun is painted. Don't put it in your mouth. Use a dusk mask if you have to dremel/sand the body. There's a much stronger chance you'll be exposed to lead via your tap water (both city pipes and older homes may still have lead pipes: a major problem in older large cities like Montreal and Toronto, among others).

Point in case, don't do anything stupid and it wont be an issue.
