Cas g&g cqb

[Skladfin]

I got to work on one of these a week ago. And yes, THE UPPER IS FULL METAL.

The internals weren't bad either. Bearing spring guide, nice poly carb piston, ported piston head, and nicely shimmed gears.

My only complaint is that the Piston head O-ring is way off dimension(as in too small) and does not make a good air seal at all. In fact, they compensate for the air loss by using extreme amount of grease around the piston head to stop the air loss. You are losing about 30~40ish FPS just from this air seal problem. This does not mean that you gain 30~40FPS from using a better O-ring, because they already stopped the airseal problem by using grease.

The one I worked on consistently chronoed aroudn 360ish FPS.

Ansarm's gun probably suffers from the air seal problem as well(They probably didn't use so much grease on your gun), that's maybe why it's shooting 300~310 FPS.

other than that, the review is very accurate and I like it. Thanks for sharing.

hope that helps.

That review is a joke (no offense)... misqoutes about parts, materials and specs throughout the review. Please remove it 90-100 fps? meters per sec maybe....

Wow, i gotta say, it really looks like the CAS G&Gs are really not far behind the Mach1 and 007 versions, and at a much cheaper price

Only problem that I've found out about with the m4/16 series is the selector switch. It feels like its ready to break. If it does its a $20 fix. Great value in the CAS G&Gs.

You are right. He really misquoted a bunch of stuff. But I thought it would be good to include it as you get to see the gun in action. I will edit the review.

Easy way to test - pull out the rear body pin and crack the reciever open. Use a tool to lightly scratch the finish inside the upper receiver. You'll be able to tell if it's paint on metal, or nylon.

I have one of the first run Combat Machine M16A3's and my upper is metal. Maybe it was only the M4's?
