Stephen has had some bad luck with PTWs over his airsoft career and brought over his FCC 7.5″ Diplomat FTW for me to give a once over and well after around 2k rounds of dry firing it seems to be alright. The Achilles’ heel of FCC guns and parts has mainly been the lousy pinion gear, for some reason they made a batch out of really soft metals that strip easily. I know myself and the guys on the team have gone through enough of them but hey no one’s perfect I guess I mean Systema has had crappy motors for years.

I had an extra replica Aimpoint T1 micro so I gave it to Stephen and I think it looks pretty good on the Diplomat. Man is this thing super light, then again it doesn’t have a lot of crap on it I guess but yeah I can one hand the gun like a pistol! It’s the perfect size and weight for Maggie, if she ever decides to return to airsoft maybe I’ll get her one. Or at least a small 7.5″ upper as I have enough PTWs already. 🙂

I’ll give it more of a torture test over the weekend and see how it stands up.
