Scar l gearbox in m4
« on: February 15, 2013, 04:32:27 PM »
Hello AA! Its everybody favorite ref! I have a quick question for some of the tech-savy people on this board.

I have a classic army scar l, I hate it, i have broken two different stocks on it already. I want to build a m4 with the internal parts from my scar. Is this at all possible? I understand it has a version 2 gearbox, but the selector switch is like none i have seen before. Will it fit in a regular ar lower?

if somebody could help me out with this it would be greatly appriciated.

It will probably need a standard M4 selector plate.  But other than that I think you will be good.

Something like one of these.

Ya, the selector plate is close to the only thing you'll need. The air nozzle will have to be swapped and I'm thinking that should be it. I have pulled SCAR v2 gearbox shells and used the shell in an M4 body and some of the holes for pins and stuff didn't match up. However that could just be a result of different brand receiver and gearbox.
