V3 Gearbox help

[Colin Allen]

Ordered some of these, getting the trigger to stay in place while also holding down the spring and piston AND trying to get the other side of the shell on is the last thing stopping me putting this back together.

Ill report back.

Worst thing about it all? I found the paperwork from when i bought the gun saying it was already downgraded to fire at 322.

I didn't even need to open it in the first place

With regards to my shims, when im finally closing the case, should i only have on on each gear amd the anti reversal latch, one on each side, so 8 when i close it?

I seem to have more than that and i can't work out where the others were and the only thing i can think of is on the trigger?

Obviously these came from somewhere because they popped out when i opened the case but im stumped if its one shim per side of a gear

You should have the correct shims on each gear to ensure that they run freely without rubbing against each other (Ooh, matron!) or having too much lateral movement. You don't need shims on the anti reversal latch.

@Adolf Hamster provided a shimming guide earlier in this thread.

Alternatively, this approach:
