Soon till Black Dragun

[JackRB]

I am about to get a new black dragun basic. My question is, i have been reading alot of posts about problems people have been having and that they had to send their guns back to m3. Has this happened to everyone that has purchased a black dragun and are there any rechargeable batteries that work with the black dragun and ricochet ak loader?

This won't answer your ?'s but I thought it worth bringing up especially since I encountered this problem while playing today and was looking for a place to post it.

I have a BD and a Richochet AK. The hopper is hard plastic. When you receive it you must sand it down to fit your feed. The BD has a metal vert. feed with no tighting mechanisim. Although I have a tight fit (please don't tell me my hopper is simply too loose) the hopper vibrates out of the feed when shooting. whether it is due to the vibration of the hopper agitator or the gun while firing I don't know yet. But since you said you were considing these to pieces I suggest we get some ideas on a fix( for both of us) before moving forward.

On the battery issue: I use a multitude of 9 volts for wireless
microphones. I don't think it neccessary to consider recharghables for the BD. You can get 5000 trigger pulls of a standard alkaline.

everyone i know has had every problem u could think of with black draguns......chips frying,and other electronic problems. I think u are better of getting one a taking the chance because i got mine fixed when it was 4 months over the warranty date.

I don't know anyone thats had to send theirs back and I know like 15 people that have them. So I guess all the bugs got worked out in the newer models.

I've had mine for like 7 months no problem. I think the earlier version were pretty screwed up though. You should be fine with a newer model. You can send it back anyway if their is a glitch.
