BOYI BIM4 and Plastic Gearbox mod

[mp3boy3239]

Hi guys.

So I just realized that the BOYI BIM4 that I ordered on friday has a plastic gearbox. I don't like that.

So after some searching, I found this

http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/tokyo-mar...4a1-m16a2.html

Could i replace my plastic gearbox with the tokyo marui one?

Cause i'm sure the BOYI is merely a clone....

also....is there a place in Canada which sells these?

thanks ^^

No, the fact that you ordered a gun outside of Canada and expect to get it, thats what I love about new guys.

I'd replace the entire gearbox if you get it, the entire gearbox is plastic... plastic gears and all not just the shell like u copied in your first post

you can buy them here in this sites classifieds but you need to be 18 and prove it by getting age verified. and unlike full guns gearboxes are not import restricted so you can order them from anywhere.

and i don't really have time to go to Kelowna/Chillawack

is there a good store to buy gearboxes and springs from specifically? (yes i'm thinking about the M110)

there are at least three age verifiers in the lower mainland BC areas like richmond, vancouver, tri-cities. also games are played at panther paintball in surrey and big foot in mission AV'ers are at most games. check out bcac and op-for for more local info for games you can find their sites in the community drop down menu at the top of the page.
