Starting to repair a boneyard AK-47, wires soldered to motor tabs, WTF! ?

Hmm, I guess an argument can be made that 2.8mm spade connectors that were fine for 8.4v nimh driving a 1990s motor at 10rps might be the resistory part of an 11.1V 30rps wankergun setup.

[Looks at G36 with intent]

is it a 74U? worried this may be my doing... I know very little about AEG repairs and knew even less back then, but when trying to repair a krink (that i later sold on) i snapped the motor tabs with relatively little force, soldering them back on seemed like the simplest solution? what should i have done instead?

@ruben0 You're fine, it's actually an AKM :)  (I'm slowly learning more about AK's)

Is there a what have you made thread? Can't find one but want to share a pic of my rifle stand. ?

New PKP box mag turned up, arrived broken. Don’t think I’m meant to have this replica ?

Airsoft world seems to be really slow at responding to return requests, how long does it normally take for those that know ?

Sent it back to them today for a refund, two Raptor box mags being fooked in the same way is a concern. Going to wait for fire support to restock the bullgear insert ?

Gave the mk18 a new eagle 6 m95 spring along with upgraded recoil spring, and a dca trigger. Seals are pretty poop so will have to do some upgrades. Maple leaf 60 degree rubber and omega nub fitted, also a black moe grip .Also fixed a sticky bolt, Poor thing shooting 0.9j on .25
