classic army is not as good as they used to be... I opened up one of their m4s recently and the grip screws were mismatched, 1 was imperial, 1 was metric threading or maybe 1 just had deeper threads than the other... not sure what... I didn't know this until AFTER the larger screw stripped out all 4 of the grip screw holes in the bottom of the gearbox by cutting them larger so the other screw wouldn't fit (and none of my other spare screws fit because they were all of the smaller size).

Also CA sometimes has issues with being a tiny bit offspec. Once you figure out how and where, you can work around it, but I found I couldn't use lonex nozzles on both CA aks and m4s.

I could be wrong... but probably, most likely not, as far as I know.
