AEG Gearbox takedown

 by chardlz13

Hello to all of you out there who play airsoft in any way shape or form, this ible is going to show you how to takedown any AEG to the gearbox, and then inside the gearbox.  I will, if applicable label any and all parts of the gearbox, and the gun.  This is for my M4-TC (yes it has a full stock but no it is not an M16) but works with any AR15 variant, but only modified how to get to the gearbox.  (the only differences are how to get the stock off)
NOTE: THIS ONLY WORKS IF YOUR GUN HAS A VERSION 2 GEARBOX DO NOT ATTEMPT IF YOU HAVE A VERSION 1 OR 3 OR ANYOTHER GEARBOX TYPE

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any damage you cause to yourself, your gun, or your gearbox if you do not feel comfortable taking apart your gun, don't attempt this.

To find out how to put it back together go to the link below (no that is not me, just a really good reviewer, and yes I have permission to link this)

For this you will need:
A small, and a medium phillips head screwdriver (one will need to be considerably long)
One flat head screw driver
an Allen Key, or a Torx screwdriver (it depends on the gun, it will be the same screws on the bottom of the pistol grip)

Well, majority of M4s as well as a bunch of other guns use the V2 because it is somewhat superior compared to the other gearboxes, plus its cheaper for the companies
