1) Manufacturer
KWA KG36C CAS version

2) Date Obtained
Around December 15th

3) Initial Cost
$380

4) New or Used
New

5) Mechanical Problems
1. Broken tappet plate and cylinder head around 2000 rounds
2. Broken Saftey selector around 4000 rounds
3. Broken cylinder head again (identical to the first time) and torn hop rubber around 7000 rounds

6) Esthetic Problems
I cracked the clear magwell and snapped the body screw/pin that goes through it due to over tightening.
Clear lower receiver has some cracks, nothing serious.

7) Rounds fired between failures
Listed above

8) Changes to Internals and Externals
Painted the Lower Receiver, new stock KWA tappet plate, new stock KWA selector plate, new (don't know brand, Darklen replaced it for me) hop rubber and some Systema aluminum cylinder head. Again, Bob (Darklen) replaced it for me and I can't remember the name. A200 or something like that I think.

10)Notes and Comments
I think that me shooting my gun in -30 weather may have been the cause of the broken tappet plate and selector switch. Not very happy with the cracks in the receiver.
