Titanium or silver.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eA cast shell is the quiet limit on a heavily tuned AEG. It flexes where it should not, the critical cross-sections are thinner than you would like, and the first thing a strong spring does is start opening it up around the cylinder window. Everything downstream of that — shimming, angle of engagement, air seal — is being set against a shell that moves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGATE machine this one in their own factory from 7075 T6, quoting a tensile strength of 570 MPa, and put the metal back where a cast shell is thin. The result is a shell that will take extreme spring rates without complaint, which is the reason to buy one; everything else it does is about making the build easier.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd it does plenty. There is an inspection window for setting pre-cocking by hand and looking at the piston, another for bevel-to-pinion mesh, and a window per gear for shimming, so the whole tedious part of a build becomes something you can see rather than something you infer. Spring changes run off a hex key or a flat blade. The anti-reversal latch releases easily, the angle of engagement can be eyeballed, and the wiring no longer runs anywhere the pinion can chew it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatibility is broad: most standard V2 internals, most bodies, VFC dual selectors, the Specna Arms ESA-2 quick spring change system, and it is ready for 8 mm bearings. GATE also offer a lifetime warranty on it to anyone running one of their control units, and the kit ships with a scratch card worth one firmware level-up on a TITAN or ASTER.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2
