Never in my life have I wanted to throw something up against a wall so badly.
The base plate of my pistol grip won't line up with the screw holes. Help?

VERY dissappointed in KWA right now. In the process of tearing down my gun to clean and lube the gearbox, one of the screw holes holding the pistol grip base plate on stripped and one of the holes in the gearbox shell stripped too.

Sort of a joke, but actually a very common practice, replacing KWA gearboxes with JG gearboxes. It's an option if you strip the other pistol grip hole.

Oh no not the hole in the gearbox, the hole inside the pistol grip which attaches the base plate of the pistol grip (the part that touches the bottom of the motor) to the inside of the pistol grip

Sounds like a good time to upgrade to a more tacticool ergonomic grip.
