[Genuine PEQ-2a repair possibilities.]

Hi all,

 

Tried searching and dint find anything regarding this.

 

TL/DR: anyone have any experience with repairing battery connections with an idea on what I can do to get this thing working again?

 

Full Story:

 

I managed to get a hold of a real PEQ-2A a while back, tested it and it worked no worries. Fast forward a short while after and I've gone to have a muck around with it and a mate's nv, when to much horror I discovered the batteries had been left in by me and burst 😭

 

I got some white vinegar on the contacts ASAP and gave the contacts a gentle scrub with cotton buds and checked function, still worked so I breathed a sigh of relief and moved on. 

 

Fast forward again and now the unit appears to have issues again. With batteries inserted the indicator light will flash on for less than a second and no laser gets emitted. 

 

Looking at the battery caps, I'm wondering if the connectors could be replaced as they are fairly corroded whilst internal ones look alright. Anyone with some insight would be greatly appreciated. Pics attached for reference.

Much obliged guys 🙂 

 

I think the only modification is the removal of a fixed spring from the stock, so I don't know if that would stuff it for adding to a gbb g3. I know for a fact that for a JG aeg, you'd either have to shave a LOT off the receiver and barrel mount (ask me about snapped g3s) or irreparably modify the furniture to fit. Should drop onto an LCT but never having held one can't confirm.

 

Edit: also yes, they DO smell awesome. Like an old tobacconist mixed with a blacksmith 😆

Hey guys,

 

Not sure if this is the place for this as its not a full gun, but I have a stock and handguard with original pins for a G3. They were previously on a JG but the previous owner molded the gun rather than the furniture (aside from the stock recoil spring).

 

Any ideas how much these would be worth? Is there even much interest for the wood furniture?

 

All advice gratefully received 😀

 

Edit: Sling is also original, slightly dried out but still pretty flexible.

This is now 99% done. Not exactly clone correct but passable at 15m 723 alike. Had to get the mock flashlight 3d printed and then screw the pistol grip in in possibly the most cack handed way, but at least its solid. Just need a butler creek flip cover to hide the front of the "flashlight" XD
