Mac Dev Cyborg 2006 Blue
Write up on 1-5-09
My last Cyborg, the Silver '06 just keeps on going and going.
So I kept an eye out on ebay for any other Cyborgs that pop
up for a good price. This gun sold at a good price, but I
still have yet to get it working perfectly.
Problem one: The feed neck has three o-rings in a stack,
that as you tighten down the neck, the o-rings clamp onto
the loader. This is a really bad design, as the o-rings kept
slipping and blocking the ball feeds. I ended up pulling the
feed neck off my older cyborg and replacing this one.
Problems two: The gun would never shoot a ball straight.
Even the best paint had crazy curves to it. After messing
around with the gun in the back yard for a while I found out
the ball detents were not set evenly. The right side was tightened
down too far, while the left was barely in. A change to this
and now the gun shoots striaght - or close to it.
Problem three: I continue to have a lsight air leak in the
gun. Normally on other Cyborgs, you just increase the LPR
and it seats the valve, or else fire the gun a few times.
This does not seem to help this gun. I have no idea on this
one.
