SgtTalbert Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Note: I did try and Google before asking...but my poor Google skills came up with sweet FA What is the difference between a Gen2 and Gen3 gear box? Can you simply replace a gen 2 with a gen 3? With the G&G CM16 Raider, what gearbox is that? I dont mind if its a Gen2 as I have used it 3 times now on a skirmish and it performed more than good enough for me The reason I am asking is I keep coming back to this rifle purely because I do like the look of it and the fact its a compact AK. http://www.actionhobbies.co.uk/SRC-Gen-II-...11T9A.aspx?nh=1 Are gen2's that bad? are gen3's that much better? I wouldn't mind spending that bit more to get a gen3 gearbox inside it (hence the above question) Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gearboxes are all various versions that refer to the configuration of the gears, housing, wiring etc. as a result you cannot just drop different version gearboxes into any AEG. I'm pretty certain the Raider is a version 2. you can certainly still upgrade parts such as gears etc, just not the configuration housing. Hope this helps and people. . . if i have stated something not quite right then please put me straight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SgtTalbert Posted May 3, 2012 Author Share Posted May 3, 2012 Hi Loydy, Cool OK thank you So if I am happy with the Raider (being a Gen2) then I would be happy with that SRC rifle So yes, i could upgrade the barrel / gears / hop up rubber etc... on both to get better performance I guess Thanks for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigshep Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 The SRC generations refer to the develoment of their guns, not the physical gearbox type, but more of whats in it. generation 1's were rubbish generation 2's were ok generation 3's are good Nowt wrong with a SRC gen2 and you like the gun so go for it.
