TM Glock18C (Spring MOD)

[ronliang]

Few newb questions before I go hands on. (my first time)
1. What gear box is inside the *EBB* glock 18c? PGB, MGB
2. Without touching the gear and spring guide, which PDI spring can I use to replace the stock spring in exchange for better distance? I'm looking at the PDI 170%.
3. If I'm lost while I take everything down... will anyone here be nice enought to help me put the gun back together?

I assume you mean a Glock AEP, not the EBB.

1. Metal
2. AEG springs =/= AEP springs, AEG springs are like 4x the size and 2x the power of an AEP spring, so you can't actually use the PDI 170% inside an AEP. The only AEP upgrade spring I'm aware of is by Nine Ball.

The glock 18 is the one from 007airsoft,for $125. For the Nine Ball's spring, where can I purchase one? Online retail within Canada?

Thx for you help.

Sorry mate, you can't. That's not an AEP you've got there, that's an EBB.

AEPs are like AEG-goodness shrank to handgun size, EBBs are like kid's toys-safety-scissors-ness blown up to pistol size. You can't upgrade EBBs, much less with AEP parts, they're not compatible.

So.. I got a junk then...

Well, it's not really a gaming gun, per say. I used to have a TM Glock EBB, it was kinda fun. But if you purchased it with the intent of using it at a game... Get good at steathily getting really, really close? Unfortunately, that's about it.

[ILLusion]

No, it's not junk.

When all your other guns run out of ammo, you can throw the EBB at an opponent and hopefully score that kill. You could win a game that way!!
