For starters no airsoft battery is 16 volts. They come in increments of 1.2 volts. Or it was on a bench power supply, and in that case it wasn't hooked up to a battery.
Second, 2,500 rounds with any combination of parts is in no way, whatsoever, any test of longevity. I've run a stock TM at 450 FPS with only metal bushings for longer than that.
Third, high ROF and breaking the gearbox don't necessarily go hand in hand. It's usually high FPS that breaks gearboxes sooner than high ROF (although I will say that a gearbox only lasts for so many rounds, and high ROF reaches that number faster).
Last, there's enough posts just on this forum (not to mention world wide) about plenty of people cracking the front off a KWA V2 gearbox, just like the other V2 gearboxes made by other companies.
