Can you elaborate? I was thinking of buying from tmg, but this sort of thing is a bit unnerving.

the way i understand it.

gun wasnt posted for sale on the site but he asked if they had one. they said something to the effect as "yeah but i cant get it to cycle, yours for cheap no warenty" he got the gun and blah balh balh i bought it and fixed it up pretty well. small leak i thought was coming from the cupseal, checked under the eye cover and found a bunch of jb weld covering up the hole. TMG was the last known "owner" of the gun when it was "worknig" but they go through the gear and they darn well knew there was jb weld covering something or else they put the jb on it themselves.

If the gun was not posted, then nothing to worry about.

Trade My Gun has always been good to my teammates. The guns we have gotten from them have yet to ever go down or have any issues.

[MstrKey]

Well they did admit it had issues......and wouldn't be covered. That would have scared me off. I guess the OP took a gamble and lost. Oh well. It may still turn out ok in the end.......I hope.

[griffan2]

yeah, fixable but any fix is a gamble :/ i just think its irresponsible to sell it at all. they KNEW it had jb weld there, MENTION IT when you sell it. "oh it has issues but can be fixed" is a liars way of saying "it has jb weld covering a hole in the body to the lpr line" big big diference

Bring it to a welder and have it done right

Good point. The devil is in the details.

[l1ryan1l]

so did you fix it yet or not?

[griffan2]

nope, just laying on my floor staring at me lol. gotta wait till my welder buddy gets back from his vacation to take a look at it, i have another indy so im not worried lol

[l1ryan1l]

i really want it to be fixed with mighty putty.. because it'd be a nice story to tell people

Hahah plus if it actually works I'm sure there would be hope for a lot of other guys who have broken guns of various kinds.

[griffan2]

if any "putty" or glue or anything chips off and gets inside the gun body, it will clog my noid. too risky

TMG has great service, but in all honesty it makes no sense that they could've missed something like that

eeeexactly

[RedAkuma]

how they put a hole like that in the body, i have no idea. suggestion though is contact cs900 he's a great guy and has helped me with damaged guns in the past. Boss at bosspb maybe another source since I know he does welded up his axes for his eye pipe mod. GL with this repair

mighty putty doesnt chip....

[griffan2]

it chipped off pretty quick when i took it off of the eye slot O.o well it was a grey hard substance that looked almost like clay, im about 99 percent sure it was jb weld.

oh hmm... idk... the stuff is pretty resilient if used right, like i said, spend the $5-$10 it costs for like 3 tubes of it, and test it out.

From what I saw in the telemarketing ads.........the most important thing is to sort of kneed it well enough to mix the two components properly before you stick it on. Don't forget to use proper form when doing this .
