Would you like some cheese with that whine? LOL! j/k
Honestly though I've been asking Lonex to make more G36-friendly parts, just for you buddy. The only problem is that the G36 doesn't see much popularity outside of Europe and North America. |
lol. I'm not terribly concerned about it. It's wishful thinking and somewhat greedy of me. I can make due if I really want to have 2 gearboxes. Thanks though. :P

Received my lonex m100 ver2 gearbox today and just wanted to share my experience with it. All I can really say is wow. This is a really nice gearbox for the money damn. Opened it up and everything sits nice and tight, its absolutely great nothing pops out. The only things I did to the gearbox was a type 0 cylinder instead of a type 1 and used the g&p nozzle so it would mate with the g&p hop up correctly. Other than that there were ZERO issues going into a g&p m16a3. The compression is also great, gun is shooting 415 right now but that will probably tone down a bit after some use. I am for sure going to have to get the lonex ver 2 gearbox for the g3, hint hint;)

Just got my new Lonex shell, the trigger post is about 3 times as large as the old one (the broken post is sitting at it's right side). I also noticed that the white tappet plate that it came with seems beefier than the old blue one :)
Thanks again Stealth. http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/830...1104130713.jpg |
Does anyone have any experience installing one of these (v2) into a King Arms receiver?

Product advisory -
It has come to our attention that the Lonex complete mechboxes that are currently on the market MUST have their Angle of Engagement of the piston corrected. If left unchecked, the piston will fail prematurely. The issue is most apparent on the M120 boxes. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...128_091005.jpg We just did some stress testing last night and discovered that after a 5-minute sorbo install, the issue is fully resolved. Here's the video of our stress test (this video MAY have been done after a few drinks) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...201-WA0000.jpg And here are the pics of the piston AFTER this test. There is ZERO wear. (I KNOW RIGHT?!!! LOL WTF BBQ!!!) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...205_211046.jpg As a result, we are now offering once again the option of having us open up the box and having the sorbo+neopad installed before the box is shipped out. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...205_202840.jpg Please also note that the weak trigger post has now been addressed by Lonex on their V2 mechboxes. |
Current status
https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.n...26957341_n.jpg A lot of motor cages do not like this mechbox, so I suspect the best way to go is to get the Lonex motor cage (along with perhaps a Lonex motor too :) ). The CNC'd SHS one is okay, but only after a lot of filing and sanding and adjustment. I also had to shorten the shaft on the CYMA motor I'm temporarily using. |
We'll bring a few motor cages in.

What do you recommend for sorbo pads in guns that are running 20+rps?

John, myself, Maciek, lurkingknight and a bunch of guys run this setup without issues. |

you should probably determine what thickness you need before ordering... It's best to measure the amount you need to push the piston back to achieve your desired AoE. if you're closer to 400 fps, 70d is the hardness you want, though I don't think there would be anissue running 70d at 300fps either... 50d is pretty soft.
