Evening all, I purchased what was meant to be a working JG MP5K, only to find the guy had lied and the piston wasn't moving, looking further, the gearbox has cracked and it has broken in its entirety, the piston has also broken, I am looking at just buying a new gear box, and slotting it straight in, any ideas as to where I can find one, it's a V2 box... Thanks in advance

 
Also, where was it purchased,  on here ?, if not, where ?

No mate, airsoft hun unfortunately, he seemed sound as well which was the sad thing

MP5K? It has to be V3 not V2. Regular sized MP5's use V2 gearboxes.
I thought they were V2 mate? 

Not what your asking but did you not throw it back at him and get a refund? 

EDIT:  This one? - https://e-tactical.store/en/gearbox/9787-jg-works-metal-gearbox-for-mp5-series-a-x102.html
Cheers mate, but they don't ship to the UK which is the annoying thing

That's a pisser! Could you, at least, charge back on your card or file a dispute on paypal? Hate seeing people get ripped off!

Tempted to try and speak to my bank about it, see if they can do anything as it's not fair, it was advertised as working, then it wouldn't feed when tested, he then started ignoring me, claimed he was busy blah blah blah, said he will "pass me some money Thursday" made me quite sad tbh, was looking forward to using it.

Do it mate. The scamming B'stard deserves no chances. He knew what he was selling you.

 
If you used a credit card you have extra protection compared to a debit card.

 
@Jmason98 That's shit isn't it :(

If it turns out you're stuck with it then Negative Airsoft has a very long CYMA MP5K video on his Patreon channel that shown pretty much a complete disassembly and rebuild, so really useful for the v3 gearbox MP5K's

(I've finally bought a GATE Titan v3 so started to work on my "boneyard" CYMA MP5K at the weekend that I bough almost a year ago, but I'm a bit stuck as the ball bearing cage on the spring guide is knackered so waiting for AK2M4 to open his web shop again to get one)

So is a V3 gearbox all I need late? To get this running again?

Sorry to hear that.  Exceptions exist, but as a general rule of thumb, anyone wanting to be paid other than by PayPal Goods and Services is planning to screw you.

All airsoft MP5guns that I'm aware of use a V3 gearbox, with that looooong trigger pull.  Easy enough to check, using the pictures on the page above, or a guide like this one.

With the caveat that nothing in airsoft is standard, a G&G or Guarder shell might suit.

The other alternative is to look for a boneyard MP5K, AK or G36 that's cosmetically wrecked, but it's always tricky to find a real bargain, honestly described.

 
I've got a cyma V3 gearbox I got from a boneyard gun if you're interested?

 
Hope you get it sorted. Keep us updated. 
So, managed to sell the gun for just under half of what I paid for it, spoke to bank, they have said call us back 15 days from transaction if you have had no reply, we can then dispute the payment!
