RE: Resaonably priced 60 size corsair retracts
I have, or have had, several .60-.90 size warbirds that use rotating gear and from that experience, plus what I've read here in these forums, the Sierra Precision gear would be my first choice. I have a set of those which will be going in my current Hellcat build. I've also had good luck with the Robart gear but others have reported issues with them and I can certainly see where the Robarts may be found lacking. When comparing the two there is no comparison really. Regarding electric retracts I'm still very much unimpressed with what I've seen although the Lado rotaters seem to have had at least a modicum of trouble free installations. I like my pneumatics and have no problems with them so will stick with them for the time being. Yes the Sierras are probably the most expensive option initially but I believe are more than worth it unless you enjoy making repairs and/or being grounded due to gear that are not dependable. My .02 cents anyway.
