Im curious. Aren't the magazine catches different? I'm thinking i'll have to modify them. Also, is there anything I should be careful of/watch out for when replacing the parts?
Thanks.
Also, I'm looking to have the thing properly repainted, duracoat or whatever. Are there kits available, or similar to in canada? Thanks!

As far as I know, The tabs on the Open Chamber conversion kit allows the hop-up to seat properly inside the upper reciever. If your kit is tab-less then your hop-up could end up sitting too far back.
I didn't have to change out my magazine catch, should be fine.
This may not apply to you, but I seemed to have a hard time with the trigger kit, more specifically, the fire selector. Albeit I was a noob back then, I still have much to learn, which might also explain how I ended up losing the safety detent for about an hour. Good luck! I fell in love with my WE M4 tenfold once I installed the OB kit.
