"At the inception of SYSTEMA, it was our utmost priority to create parts that were strong and durable. On the other hand, with an increase in the strength of each component so too did the individual weight, which at one point exceeded over 600g for a completed Mecha Box weight in comparison to an OEM version; after installation this caused a hindrance in the handling of the AEG. At one point in time when resin based outer AEG components were popular, the nucleus of the AEG (Mecha Box) complimented the overall weight and feel, however when the focus shifted to a more “Real-Steel” replicated external receivers’ the overall weight became a obstruction to the active gamer. Therefore, after 12 years have passed we decided to completely revamp our SYSTEMA parts with our most important development theme to be the lightening of the weight for each component. In order to realize our theme, we not only changed the materials used to create the parts, but also applied the knowledge and wisdom of various techniques that we have accumulated throughout these years to make this concept a reality.
It was known to us that certain issues existed yet we were not able to find an effective solution in the past; problems such as the dragging feel of the trigger after the trigger switch is off due to the residual inertia stemming from the gear set, as well as a loss of durability on the Piston caused by the heavy Sector Gear. We decided to approach and carefully inspect each of these issues stemming from weight one by one and the fruits of our labor have brought forth our newest design ENERGY."
So Systema has yet again re-worked the Version 2 gearbox. Now it is super light. The question is: Is weight really that important to justify spending on what is possibly a pricey gearbox?
