here in mission b.c. my night games are in -1 -2 degrees of weather. keep your batteries charged up, and keep the full auto down to short bursts,,son of a $itch, son of a $itch, son of a $itch should be your rate of fire. avoid semi only in cold weather,semi is hard enough on aeg's as it is.

Why is semi harder on AEG's?

Semi is apparently harder on an AEG simply because the gear box does only one full revolution and suddenly stoped.

All the shock and force is dissipated into the gearbox that is not expelled via the spring / nozzle ---> projectile.

stock guns break down real easy in cold weather, upgraded guns (upgrade piston specifically and silent head set) work safely down to -5.
I saw a G&G catalogue and they stated their stock AEG's work in -40 degree celsius. A ridiculously wild statement, I know. I think it's because Canada is the only place cold enough to actually disprove this fact and very few people here like G&G guns lol
Anyway J.S.O.C. and AAsurplus have asked G&G to send us a few guns to test in ACTUAL -40 conditions. Still waiting to see if they accept, but seeing as their guns have enough trouble staying functional in summer, I seriously doubt any positive results will come out of this test lol

And the piston slamming into the cylinder head multiple times per second in full auto is somehow better than once? I'm just having trouble understanding the logic.

G&G guns barley work out of the box, never mind -40!!
