I bought a Broxa

[Blindside]

Ok, so I've read all of the other threads pertaining to this gun. I get it, most of you don't like it and think I should have picked up the Kraken. I agree, in hindsight I really should have, hell I like AK's.

The reason I went for the broxa is because I like mp5's, quite simply. I could have spent 10 bucks less and went for the kraken, but end of the day I wanted what I wanted. I also bought one because I borrowed a gun the last time out and personally I don't want to do that again. I fell in the mud and felt bad that I got some on the gun, and hell I wouldn't want to break one either. Also I didn't want to wait til I got AV'd to look thru the classified because I was hooked within the first 30 mins of gameplay.

So, I have some questions and I hope you guys can help me out.

1. How do I clean out the green goop and lube the gun?
2. Has anyone replaced parts on their broxas and what would you recommend?
3. Is a can of Krylon really a bad idea?

1: you need to disassemble everything (not advised if you don't know what your doing
2:shimming, probably new bearings don't waste any more $ upgrading it though, it'll last you till you can get a better gun
3: as long as you disassemble it first as to not get paint on the airsoft internal bits (inside inner barrel and the like)

I've had mine for over a year now. I just put BBs in it through the little boxes that clip into the bottom. No problems yet.

my broxa held up really well for along time, in 8 months all I had to do was buy new mags because A I hate hi caps and B my hi cap broke. I took it to XT and it always shot 330-340 which was perfect. I wouldnt replace anything, and if a couple months from now you still really like airsoft (who wouldnt) buy a TM or CA ect ect. And I Krylon'd mine, Just the clear bit anyway, I just taped EVERY THING up nicely.
