Gear boxs
« on: May 26, 2006, 05:45:08 PM »
Would a version 3 gear box work in a gun designed for a verson 2 gear box without  much modification? Because JT is selling a version 3 gear box http://www.airsoft128.com/xcart/catalog/VER309GB_Version_3_Completed_Metallic_Gear_Box_Assembly_TM_Com-p-34255.html and  I was wondering if I could put it in a cheap MP5http://www.airsoft128.com/xcart/catalog/VER314A_CFB_Tactical_MP5_Style_A5_Electric_Rifle-p-34159.html?And what kind of gear boxs do P90s use?

I don't know an answer to that, but I would think it would be no.  However, $30 + $50 is $80, and that's not including all the time you're going to spend trying to modify everything.  For $10 more, $90, you could get the Well R5, or for $99, you could get the CYMA MP5-J (http://www.airsoft128.com/xcart/catalog ... 34173.html).  I would recommend buying a gun with a metal gearbox over buying an LPEG and trying to put a metal gearbox in it.

TM mp5's arent that expensive either....


I reccomend saving up for a TM/CA/ICS... that way you will have somthing that will last a little longer/ is a little better made...

Remeber, you get what you pay for....

thats true but it's the summer and I've got three months full of nothing to do, might as well do something fun like puting together a airsoft gun and trying my first modification. After all it's better to screw up a 30$ LPEG than a 250$+ AEG.

True and it is your money after all. But I still think you should invest in better components, a trip over to the For Sale board might net you a good deal on quality parts.

Yeah... don't get something cheap.  I made that mistake... thought about modifying it.. and realized that it would be cheaper to just buy a better one.  So i did.  I do not regret it either... what i do regret is rushing into airsoft and buying a cheapo.  I still got some kills with it, tho...  :lol:
