Its happened to me on the field and took hours to find the spring guide.:hammer:
Edit
Which Version 2 mechbox is easiet to work with?

If it comes to regular maintenance, one of the easiest ones I've had a chance to work with is the Pro-Win gearboxes...
They cost a pretty penny and require modifications to your receiver, but once installed, are a dream to work with. Super fast spring changes, zero preload on the lower half of the gearbox for easy opening/closing, spring decocking features, integrated hop up chambers for maximum air seal... all those features make the extra effort and money worthwhile.
PS - you *SHOULDN'T* have to open and close your gearbox weekly for cleaning and lubing... if it requires it, then there's something seriously wrong with your setup and/or the lube you're using. It would be akin to bringing your car in for an oil change on a daily basis.
Besides being unnecessary, you cause excessive wear to all your screw holes - your threads WILL strip very soon if you keep up your current maintenance schedule.
