Chances are the paint they use on the bolt isn't the highest grade..

it would probably be beneficial to remove the paint from the bolt and polish it.

The gouges are on the bolt catch side right? If so they are from the bolt catch as it is stamped steel and has sharp edges. I ground the sharp edges off and that stopped happening .. I also have a cracked cylinder and have a replacement coming (thanks for your help george!) but fuck i can't for the life of me remove the roll pins and the regular pin at the back of the bolt to remove the gas chamber assembly ... Amos any tips? Another problem with the MP9's is that the part 153 is attached to a spring that is a tad to strong and prevents the bolt from completely returning to battery Which in turn doesn't allow the hammer to function. Simply stretching the spring will fix this.

Are you replacing the stock cylinder with a stock replacement or is something better available? Any upgrade parts that are recommended?

unfortunately, there is not an upgraded cylinder. I spoke with the KWA guy on the phone and they only have the stock part. I had to pay $10 for the part and $17 for shipping with tracking number.

Funny thing is, is that he said they never heard of the cylinder breaking... but i know thats BS considering there are many reports of this failure....

ALSO, I am aware of what is cause the bolt scraping issue.. remember.. im the one who's doing the review on this gun :P I spent hours researching it.... I really with i did that BEFORE spending the money on this expensive paperweight lol

Like i said, the review will be done in a few weeks.. i have 2 guns schedualed ahead of this one

I have both KWA MP9 versions and I have NOT experienced any failures or premature wear on either gun! Don't let other peoples failures dissuade you from purchasing one...they are pretty damn reliable out of the box, but that's just my two cents!

The gun is very reliable and a blast to use! There are a few small mods that make it run way better and I wouldn't dry fire to much as with all guns that's when the cylinder takes the most pounding because there is no buffer for the cylinder which the bb provides buy because of the stupid high rate of fire inwouldbt recommend dry firing it at all.

I'm just having a really hard time tearing down the bolt te pins are really in there... KEVORKIAN is absolutely right dont let these malfunctions dissuade it really is a very skirmishable gun out of the box!
