not to jack the tread but, i found in wet and moist conditions, the barrel quick detach lock gets corroded easily so i started to lube it with anti-corrosive lubricant, and well pretty much silver in the gun and buttsock.

Could you explain, please?

this part started to form white corrosion possibly due to being zinc plated.I just cleaned it off and lubed it with anti corrosive spray. Another problem is the wet box mag lol sagging and all plan to get the m60 boxmag and mod it to work for our 240b

Ok, I see.
Well, I waterproofed my mag box with 1000mph tape ( green duct tape), works really well.

Yeah this seems to be the way to go. Its pretty decent cardboard... seems to have some sort of coating on it already to help prevent it from melting in the rain haha.

Havent gotten out to any games since the last one so no news to report. I hope to get some action shots from the next game to show it off tearing up the opfor!
