[@daphar1]

I’ve been planning on getting one but have been holding off to see as many opinions as I could. I might just get one now.

[@jinkxjinkx7123]

Love the vid bro keep up the good work

[@atus]

Really nice gun, but my microswitch stopped clicking too. Replaced it with a Krytac mosfet and trigger contacts and all works perfectly. Still a very nice gun imo, but you just need to be ready to replace the included microswitch since it will most likely fail.

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

Yeah for a beginner tho I would not recommend. And it’s kinda ridiculous paying over $200 dollars for a gun just to break second time out. Airsoft Players need to start demanding higher quality for what we pay for

[@TheHumanParaquat]

Exact same thing happened to me on the 97b...just changed the switch for now...but the stock mosfet has been confirmed as very bad...

[@atus]

@@TheHumanParaquat Sad that the microswitch is so bad. The gun itself is amazing for the price.

[@albertkropp]

Is this what you used? www.evike.com/products/55969/

[@FAWX]

@@DevinGhillieAirsoft well yeah, they're the same dipshits who pay 350 for a gun that shoots 10 rps at 380 fps with a poo ass motor, gearbox and no quick change spring guide. Id much rather spend 200 on this and have to replace the mosfet with a gate titan and be done with it, than to get a gun thats performs like trash for twice the money.

[@robertbullard8570]

Nice video, after watch this, I believe my Dytac is from this same factory. btw, that motor is really strong

[@llgarboll3570]

Ay bro what Tracer unit is that? Looks sick on their I might want to get one myself

[@cfmele123]

How did you remove the stock suppressor set screw/ roll pin? What tools/methods did you use? Thanks.

[@jthampy5943]

How did you take off the flash hider because I’ve been struggling

[@walid4572]

how did you remove the flash hider from the cm097 and put a silencer

[@jacobr.hamilton2253]

Im looking for a good dmr for my first one, is this one a good pick?

[@tylera8297]

How did you take the flash hider off, and what tool, I’ve been trying to figure out how to take it off

[@insertname9214]

how did you get the orange tip of on mine it is really tuff

[@charlietbone7958]

Awesome video! The mosfet on mine stopped clicking so I'm in the process of upgrading it now. How good is the gearbox shell itself on the platinum, how much power in joules do you think it can reliably handle?

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

Im pretty sure I’ve seen m140 to m150 springs being used

[@brendanrogerio3536]

Thank you so much, I've been looking for this kind of video. Overall, would you recommend buying this as my first gun? Also, what battery would you recommend using?

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

Not necessarily as your first gun because it can break quickly. Unless your field has a good tech that can switch out your mosfet.

[@JackTopinka]

What new mosfet would you recommend?

[@juliopmiller5444]

Nice video man! I have a question. Would you say this rifle is compatible with other m4 magazines like eliteforce, valken or g and g and kwa?

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

Yes all m4 mags

[@TascoDayZ]

That sound like the song I use for intros

[@sweshy5877]

what tracer unit are you using

[@whatthe776]

Awesome vid What optic r u using on this gun? Edit: What riser r u using too

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

Replica T1 from evike. Around $40

[@neshess]

I’m going to make a rap sample out of Devin sounds

[@Mark_B544]

Why replace mosfet, it’s under warrant for a year so let THEM replace it

[@dsolo2390]

Please tell me which tracer unit you are using? I just noticed that it fits perfectly into the original forend and the fact that when the original silencer is removed, there is still 10 cm of the barrel that does not interfere with its operation.

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

I put an ace tech lighter s inside a hollow suppressor with foam and I think i used a 2 or 3 inch barrel extension

[@dsolo2390]

@@DevinGhillieAirsoftthank you!

[@hayfry9352]

boutta but a Perun v2 in mine for my first actually good rifle

[@garretrasmussen5253]

How good would you say the external quality of this gun is ??? Ive seen another video of this aeg and the barrel was built of center

[@larrythecucumber1919]

Very good quality

[@logancristoforo8922]

How did you get the flash hider off? I’ve been hearing it up and it won’t budge, I took the grub screw out

[@shirleyproductions]

it's 14mm negative, so it's left to tight, right to loose. just make sure you are twisting it the right way, and maybe try using a vise (if you have one). be sure to buy a replacement flash hider before you take it off. that way if it breaks when you take it off, you don't look like a doofus on the field with no flash hider.

[@josephagarwal9037]

If I wanted to go for the nato type guns (M4) would you recommend Cyma ?

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

Check out, G&G and Classic army,

[@skidhvh]

Is Perun V2 Hybrid or Gate Aster a good replacement?

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

Yes

[@mikeymaltz6012]

do you think putting a GATE titan in this would make it worth the purchase? i just bought this and am now seeing that everyones microswitch breaks :(

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

Yeah there’s a video on how to do it

[@atus]

Yep. Replaced my microswitch with a Krytac mosfet and Krytac trigger contacts. Otherwise very nice gun.

[@Prisutni]

gate titan is $170 and gun is $250, hahaha

[@juanmkinsley4471]

Would this be good for outdoors or is it more of a cqb gun

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

Both, just maybe change the hop up bucking

[@aserrano1164]

what's the whole setup including sights and tracer, beginner and this build looks amazing!

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

xOF Prospect is look at the G&G combat machine 2.0 or ARP9. This just broke on me. But the red dot is a cheap T1 replica. Ace tech makes really good tracer units

[@aserrano1164]

@@DevinGhillieAirsoft Thanks for the help, might be a stupid question but on top of the barrel that little device that's flashing, is it part of the tracer unit ?

[@smiggieballs8936]

xOF Prospect that’s a Gun Camera that mounts to Your gun

[@smiggieballs8936]

Same setup as Storm

[@SassySardine]

How did you remove the supressor and add a tracer unit?

[@SassySardine]

Im trying to remove it but I cant remove the handguard to get to the grub screw holding the suppressor in.

[@thomasfernandez1139]

How reliable is this? Can this be a good plinker? Can it take nimh batteries?

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

Go with the combat machine 2.0 for plinking and Nimh batteries. Very reliable

[@hotpocket907]

what battery did you use for this? Im planning on using 11.1 lipos

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

11.1 but my micro switch broke

[@makingmumscry3012]

Apparently these microswitches can't handle the 11.1. best is 7.4 lipo with the micro switch trigger

[@TheHumanParaquat]

@@makingmumscry3012 mine still broke with a 7.4

[@robertleckie9697]

Did the microswitch break because of 11.1v Lipo? Will it be ok if I use 9.6v nimh? Will Nimh break the microswitch?

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

It’s a physical break from pulling the trigger. Nothing to do with the battery. The trigger smashing against the microswitch breaks it.

[@robertleckie9697]

@@DevinGhillieAirsoft if I plan to get this gun should I be concerned with this?

[@atus]

I used a 7.4v lipo the whole time and my microswitch stopped clicking. Replaced it with a Krytac mosfet and trigger contacts and everything works perfectly now. If you get the gun I'd also buy a new mosfet or trigger contacts for it. The stock mosfet lasted only 5 or 6 games I think.

[@TheHumanParaquat]

@@atus lol same, I got 6 games out of it

[@StorMRagE4EVA]

So where in the video does it show the gun broke, it sounded noisy but the gun looks like it worked, and it's likely the hopup had issues which that's 1 part if the gearbox didn't have any structural failures than you're Golden

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

Nope broke the next weekend, microswitch snapped off

[@uncleruckus7492]

Just gotta ask what the fuck is a micro switch

[@shirleyproductions]

you gotta get the cyma platinum sr47. exactly the same, but it takes ak mags. same gearbox, motor, everything. it just means you get beefier mags with more ammo.

[@DevinGhillieAirsoft]

PTS EPM1s hold 250 BBs

[@shirleyproductions]

@@DevinGhillieAirsoft yeah, but those are what? $30 bucks apiece? a 200 rd ak mag costs $10. I also just like the unique aesthetic of an m4 with ak mags. that might just be me, though.

@@supremeprime660 it might, I’ve heard rumors they updated it. Just don’t pull the trigger hard, or even put something to sorta stop you from pressing it down all the way, just until it fires the gun.

Ofcourse it broke. You stuck a big battery and you flip that trigger like a kid flipping the light switch on and off. Your gonna short something out. Same concept
