Reccomend me a good piston under $25 besides systema

Well, my stock piston gave way after I got my 8.4v 2500mah battery for my TM G36C.

The reason I say besides systema is because I actually bought a black Area 1000 poly piston and the reinforced tooth broke. I don't trust systema products. So if anyone can help, i'd appreciate it!

Well if you're in the US, we can suggest pistons to go with, but they may not be in your price range. Canadian site, Canadian prices. Just something to keep in mind. As for pistons, I have nothing against Systema so I'd suggest them again. *shrugs*

Even the best had bad days... I'd give Systema a try again

The stock TM pistons are the absolute best. Upgraded spring or not.

hello there fellow pinoy. I would recommend DeepFire full teeth piston(titanium nitride coated) one of the best piston there is.

UPDATE: OK, So, lets see, I'm gonna have to include now that i'm using G&G stock torque gears, and I'm guessing their sector gear is just way too strong in hardness, ripping anything I throw at it. So I guess I will try using the stock TM sector gear in conjunction with the Deep Fire full titanium teeth.

However, that won't be for a while, I'm gonna take extreme care to make sure everything is in perfect condition

DEEP FIRE TITANIUM SINGLE TOOTH: Installed 10/07/05, lasted around 1000 rounds

By the way, I think the G&G gears are okay, excluding their spur gear, which is the broken one in the pic. I'm pretty angry about all these things breaking and having problems, but I'm learning and also glad modding an AEG is cheaper than modding my car.

nevermind, G&G isn't a great buy. It doesn't help it wasn't shim that well, but it wasn't that bad.

So, both the sector and spur gear are useless now I only bought them because I was $15 short for the systema original torque gears. And I also went through an area 1000($20) and a DF titanium tooth($22) piston.

Oh well, still learning! Since the gearbox was already apart, I went and took everything out, cleaned it, and I polished the cylinder and piston rails. Reshimmed it and it looks like its shimmed just right. Now, I just have to wait to buy a DF full titanium tooth piston. By the way, johnyew, I pmed you about the ones your selling.
