Broken Gearbox

HarDcoreChronie · June 26th, 2006, 13:23

Hey guys

Im an avid player but a rookie when it comes to AEG repairs.

My friend had a nice fall with my 'TM 51 Carbine' pounding the mag into the reciever of the gun. The gun would cycle but no longer fire bbs. I took out the gear box to find that the whole front end of the gearbox by the piston head is cracked and has Broken off leaving it free floating inside the gun. The Gearbox needs to be replaced, who knows what else may be damaged. Im just trying to get an adverage price on stock TM metal gearboxes so the gentleman who broke it can throw me the money and ill send her out to get fixed, and tuned up again.

thanks
guys

Buy a reinforced mechbox, I'd recommend Hurricane. Buying another stock mechbox isn't always a great idea, as it'll eventually break as well (Version 2 tend to suck for that). They tend to run between $60 and $100. If you are very much set on getting a stock mechbox shell (like the gun will remain stock always), am sure there are enough used ones around on here. Some guys will buy a bunch of upgrade parts for their new gun, and cut to the chase and buy a reinforced mechbox as well.
