selector switch problem.
7 January, 2012, 16:24
Hi Guys,
I have purchsed a KAC PDW from an asian airsoft shop. Due to it shooting 390, I tried to downgrade it today, but the screws on the dual selector switches are so friggin tight, I threaded them quite easely. These are very poor quality alan key screws and I have notified the retailer of this, but is there maybe a little trick I havent thought of you guys might know to get them off?
regards,
Arco

Re: selector switch problem.
I tend to use Torx (6-pointed star) wrenches instead of allen keys as they dig into the metal a lot better and if you get the right size, barely damaged even the worst screws out there. Also, bare in mind it will probably be thread-locked, so applying heat to the screw may help as well, just to break the glue down a bit.

Re: selector switch problem.
I tried it with the torx, alan key, imperial alan key, nothing works....my only help would be using a flat screwdriver that makes it to both opposite sides and then turn very slowly, but I will definately give the heating a try m8
