Why those guns in particular?

There are many better options out there.

Uhoh, backyard gun, not in newbie section. Put on that flame suit man, your going to need it here.

Anyhow i heard that the "Knight" is down right terrible, my brother has a Broxa and it preforms quite good for the price, not nearly as good as a CA, ICS, G&G, or TM but at least it works.

Aftermath, mmm. I charge double to work on those, they're such pieces of shit. The Kraken is ok, the rest is crap.

I have the Broxa and its been going strong for three years. Had the hopup upgraded and a tighter barrel put on it. But its still going strong! Lots of bbs put through it.

I find it's the selector switches that usually go. I've replaced a ton of them. And I can't find selector switch sets now either. Trigger switches as well. Shimming is atrocious. Pretty bad when you have to dig into a second pack of shims to shim the box from the factory.

As for those who say they've had one for x number of years and haven't had a problem, even the sun shines on a dogs ass some days.

I was under the impression that both the Kraken and Broxa used the CYMA gearbox?

Also @ OP: the Knight and other models from them suck. Only consider the Kraken and Broxa.

I initially purchased the Aftermath Knight CQB. Two months later, I purchased a full metal ICS-128 gun.

The Knight CQB shoots 0.2g BBs at about 290 fps. Full auto, it fires 12.1 rounds per second.

Of the two guns, the Knight CQB hasn't had any problems (well, my first Knight CQB had problems feeding BBs, so I went back to Cabellas and they swapped it for a new one).

My ICS-128 has had the following problems:
1. Gun shoots in full-auto when the selector is in semi-auto mode (fixed by spreading the electrical contacts in the trigger switch).
2. Battery in the crane stock can slide up about 1-2 mm, thereby loosing electrical contact (fixed with by taping on some electrical tape as a spacer).
3. Both high-cap magazines failed (one failed during the frozen sniper game - getting me killed three times).

However, I still love how the ICS-128 feels and looks......

They do. They're lower end CYMA guns.

I'm surprise there's gundoc that's willing to working on aftermath guns. I wouldn't touch the gearbox unless it's being completely ripped out and replaced.

Very low end and cranked up way hotter then the original material was designed to handle, with the cheapest shit parts thrown inside.

I keep trying to tell people, the cheap shit is cheap for a reason and it's not becase it's clear.

For having the Broxa Evolution, it's not a bad gun, but you can have a better one.. The only job you will need to do it's a shim and grease job and replacing your bushing by metal ones.
