BE XM8 gearbox upgrades?
I have a BE(both Elephant) XM8 AEG airsoft gun and i want to put a new gearbox in it. I have heard that the wiring in this gun is opposite to all other guns. So i am afraid to buy a like say a g36 gearbox for this gun. Will it work, or will i have to rewire it. If thats the case, how would i go about doing that?
Thanks

Your gun has a version 2 gear box, as i understand the G36 series have version 3 boxes. This presents a problem as the gearboxes need to be identical, or else it wont fit. So you will need to get a version 2 gear box. Guarder sells this one: http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products...
for 40 dollars. on airsoftGI you get free shipping over orders of 100 dollars. So add some bbs and goggles, etc. if you have the spare cash.
Personally I dont find BE to be very reliable, for 100 dollars you can get the Galaxy MP5K PDW, its a bit of a cut in FPS but it is very reliable, especially given the price.
But as for the wiring, i reccomend going on www.airsoftforum.com and asking around there, there is a ton of information available on that website, and people who can help with any problem.
Good luck with the gun!
