AttackBunny Posted July 2, 2024 Posted July 2, 2024 Hey guys and girls, I recently acquired a S&T M249 para, it had been converted to HPA but I’m looking to put a V2 gearbox back in. The pistol grip is missing the little screw in plate to hold the motor in place in the pistol grip, so I’ve been looking at a replacement but cannot work out if there are any differences between them or what’s best to do. The HPA engine I have, the gate pulsar S doesn’t have a nozzle long enough for me to use so I’m trying to avoid getting another engine for now… any help is much appreciated. Thank you!
Daveoc33 Posted July 3, 2024 Posted July 3, 2024 The motor in the A&k and specna Arms m249 is not in the pistol grip. It's in the receiver. This is what the gearbox looks like. It's not a v2 gearbox. So a pistol grip from one of these won't work in a s&t m249. I hope this helps..

Daveoc33 Posted July 4, 2024 Posted July 4, 2024 I think it's an old design. On action hobbies it says the s&t is based off the star m249 design. Star changed to ares a while ago.
