gunbod007 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 So I have an ASG SR12 LMT Defender AEG, Running what I presume is a V2 gearbox. it has been left unused for years. Got some new batteries and it fired about 5 shots and just stopped. Every time you pull the trigger it make a click noise but no cycle. battery and wires get very hot. I have removed the motor and checked that works by firing it with the motor removed. I have reset the reverse lever thing. It seems that after each reset you fire one shot and it locks again. I am tempted to just take it to a shop at this point but was hoping to avoid expensive repairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took off the receiver and pistol grip and reset the reverse catch twice. Never opened a gearbox before. Bit scared but can't fuck it up anymore. Time for YouTube. Is only a backup now I have a GBB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedbird_666 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 21 minutes ago, ak2m4 said: crack that sucker 🙂, those Lonex can be right f**kers though if it has the QD stock tube The SR12 (as per OP) is a KWA OEM and long discontinued. The Proline LMT Defender is Lonex OEM'd, but uses a different stock tube which makes it fine to remove the GB. With the Lonex/BO Dynamics LT595 you have to de-pin or de-solder the battery connectors to feed the wires through a tiny hole. (Source: I owned the Proline which was a doddle to work on, I also own an LT595 which was a PITA until I modded the body to feed the wires through the receiver stub instead.)
