Hands-on help from real airsoft techs

The Tech Bench Fee covers workshop labour from the Platoon Stores in-house technical team. It is not a physical product but the mechanism we use to bill the time our techs spend working on your replica, whether that is a quick diagnosis or a full gearbox rebuild.

What we work on

Our workshop handles the full spread of airsoft technical work: gearbox repairs and rebuilds, motor and wiring faults, hop-up tuning, spring and FPS changes for site limits, and the fitting and programming of MOSFET and ETU units such as the GATE TITAN and ASTER. We work across AEG, gas and HPA platforms.

Local expertise since 2006

Based at our store in Rochester, Kent, we have been an airsoft specialist since 2006. Keeping servicing in-house means faster turnaround and direct advice, rather than shipping your gun off to a third party and waiting weeks.

How to book

If you are not sure what your job needs, talk to us first. We will assess the replica, explain the work and confirm the cost before we start, so there are no surprises. Learn more about what we offer on our airsoft repair service page.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Tech Bench Fee cover?

It covers the labour for hands-on workshop time from our technicians, such as diagnostics, repairs, upgrades and servicing. Parts are charged separately. If you are unsure what your job needs, contact us first and we will advise before any work begins.

What kind of work can your techs do?

Our in-house team handles gearbox repairs and rebuilds, MOSFET and ETU fitting such as GATE units, motor and wiring issues, hop-up tuning, spring and FPS changes, and general servicing across AEG, gas and HPA replicas.

Do I pay this before or after the work?

The Tech Bench Fee is how we bill workshop labour. For most jobs we will confirm the expected work and cost with you first. Please get in touch or bring your replica in so we can assess it before charging.

Where is the workshop based?

Our workshop is at our store in Rochester, Kent. As a specialist established in 2006, we work on airsoft replicas locally rather than sending them away, which keeps turnaround quick.

Can you fit parts I bought elsewhere?

In most cases yes, though we will always advise on compatibility and quality first. Fitting is exactly the kind of job the Tech Bench Fee covers. Contact us to discuss your build and we will let you know what is involved.
