Took my GSG-5 down today to clean everything out. When cleaning the barrel I found a crack running down the chamber inline with the extractor notch. Pulled the barrel and breech from the gun and both of the tabs on the side of the breech were broken off. Is this common?

Update, seems there are at least 2 other cases of this occuring,

Should have looked here

Look carefull when you clean these.

Wow, after seeing that thread, I looked at mine and thank goodness it is okay. Sorry to hear about yours getting cracked. Maybe the people at ATI will make it right.
