I currently have a well D4817 AEG. I'm thinking of replacing the spring for a m120 spring. And before I buy it I wanna know if it'll be beneficial?

if that gearbox is plastic then NO - it will bust if plastic gears

even if it has plastic gearbox with metal gears - it will soon bust

 

will need a proper gearbox and sorry to say may as well get a more "proper" aeg

seems to be an improved B500A1 or bulldog or M805 beginner plinker

but still not really a decent skirmish-able or easy upgrade aeg

 

very likely to have a M90 or 300fps spring in there and likely to be about the limit

motor might not be up to much more and deffo wouldn't advise using a battery bigger than 8,4v

(some funny videos with plastic boxes self destructing on 11.1 & 14.4v lipo's)

 

ok for plinking in back garden, possible get by on a cqb site but use it for what it is and perhaps

save upgrade money for a better gun - M120 will push about 390fps way over most sites btw

but if you have a plastic box like I think may be in there it will very likely bust real soon

yeah, put an M120 spring in that and if it cycles (which I don't think it will) you'll smash the front off the gearbox instantly.

 

 

So if he does it we need a video.

yeah i think lots of bits are glued on that gun, like the flash hider, and you'd have to saw a few bits in half to get in.

 

i had a b500a1 years ago, I agree no point in trying to upgrade guns of this calibre, just save 100-150 quid and buy an ICS sportline
