Just picked up a boneyard TM Famas SV from firesupport. I have got it running but the anti reversal latch was not included. Not been able
To find a specific latch anyone know if a different version will work?
 
I've got similar issues (mine seems to be worn enough to cause issues on full auto).

It's its own design unfortunately, so highly unlikely another version will work.
The closest I've seen is the G&G L85 one, but even that isn't correct.
 
1000iq play:
get a solink advanced motor with uni bearing and tell the arl to fuck off :)
 
If its the TM version then the motor wont fit. Its smaller than the standard 580 motor that everyone in the universe uses.
I have the same "nearly but not quite working" version of a TM Famas.
So bored with trying to fix it and get it running.

I was dithering over that one - thanks for saving me from another shouldn't have! 😁
 
I have the PDF manuals for it if you want them.
Might get shot of mine for beer money if you want a parts gnu? Its one that i'm not gonna finish.

I am happy with it was in immaculate external condition. shoots great, just a lack of an anti reverse latch is a concern
 
Do they make solinks motors in V1 Style though?
I know for certain they make reversed polarity motors for SVD users, I guess if one asks nicely they can make whatever the V1 uses, of course it won't be cheap but worth asking nonetheless

The SVDs are just the standard short one you'd use in a V3, so at least they've already got the physical size pre-made; even if they have to do some extra stuff with it.

The V1 motor is just it's own beast. Would likely cost more than the gun itself at this point!
