The Poly. piston may be better for your gears, but that Aluminum Piston Head is bad for the gearbox. It will eventually crack your gearbox, just like the Aluminum Piston would eventually crack the gearbox and/or damage the sector gear.
In over 5 years of working on airsoft guns, whenever I have encountered a cracked V2 gearbox, no matter what else was wrong with it, the AEG either had a metal piston and/or a metal piston head in it (most often one of the two, not both). That lead me to believe exactly what I have read time and time again on airsoft forums: it's not a good idea to have a metal piston or metal piston head in a V2 gearbox!
Next time you upgrade/repair/service your airsoft gun, I recommend replacing the aluminum piston head with a plastic one.

Re: Echo 1 USA
You should get the polycarb is the way to go, aluminum parts are just too tough, especially the piston head, since it will keep slamming into the end of your gearbox. Not good stuff.

The M-60 TOP is pretty cool i might get a m-60 instead of a SAW...... Maybe.....the only problem is it goes only 280 FPS.

NO! TOP M60's are extremely unreliable. They use a crappy feeding system, the only M60's that are good are Inokatsu and STAR. Get a VN model if you can, they are coolest.

Re: Echo 1 USA
STAR has a iffy reputation with their AEGs. CA is probably your best bet. Don't settle for anything that doesn't have a V3 gearbox. V2 gearboxes are not made as strong to handle the constant strain of a SAW role.

CA doesn't make an M60 though.
