Jamin1510 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Hello, I want to upgrade my SCAR-L and would like to know, and have some links to, parts that could be used to upgrade my stock gearbox. As I said it's a V2 and anything that could help such as air nozzles, piston heads, cylinders or even gears is greatly appreciated Thank in advance, Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moose87 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 im no expert, i was told by people to make sure you have metal gears which most do but to also make sure they are shimmed. after that i think the upgrades depend on what you want the rifle to do??

Jamin1510 Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share Posted July 2, 2013 Thanks, as a matter of fact I was just reading up on shimming gears and yes I do have metal gears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moose87 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 yer i talked to a few people and they said making sure your gears rotate smoothly is a good start as makes them last longer and engage with the other gears better. depending on what you want it to do. an upgraded spring will up your FPS by a fair bit. have you thought about a new barrel and hop up unit?? they will increase your fps a little possibly but they will def increase the accuracy and distance.

Jamin1510 Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share Posted July 2, 2013 Yeah, I was looking at some tight bores but I hadn't even given hop ups a second thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moose87 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 well a better hop up with give better spin on the bb giving it abit more distance and more accurate so its pretty important Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters jcheeseright Posted July 2, 2013 Supporters Share Posted July 2, 2013 agreed, the very last thing you should upgrade (I say that in the loosest possible terms, when most people upgrade their gearboxes what actually happens is they break them) is the gearbox, invest in a tight bore barrel and a decent hop-up unit and rubber first, it'll probably get you the increase in performance you're after!
