Bolt catch and ambidextrous Mag release.

[Kb24]

Had a Gate Eon complete v2 gearbox fitted on my Umarex Hk416A5.

 

Says in the manual:

“If it was a previously functioning bolt-catch, with a lever, replace it with one without a lever or modify it (see photo), as the EON Complete Gearbox is not compatible with functional bolt-catches.”

 

I believe the one I had did have a leaver… anyone know any bolt catches that would work?

 

also tech said accessories plugs on front of gear box don’t leave enough room to get ambidextrous mag release to fit anyone have a work around for this too?

I am not quite sure what you are asking with regard to the bolt catch; however, you cannot use a functional bolt catch with the Eon.  You can either remove the lever from the current one or, if you do not still have it, get a replacement and modify it.

You need to remove the parts that go through the receiver.
