I was wondering instead of going out and buying a gun for 100s if i could take an aeg gear box and put it into a spring body.

Well yes you can do anything with enough, time, money, confidence and motivation. However,it would not be worth it. Unless, you had a gun is mind they don't make as a aeg yet and you can buy it as a springer. Such as; the l85 airsoftclub produces.
Just buy an AEG.

I agree with gestapo. You would probably end up spending twice as much money and countless hours modding...... a springer. It would be funny if it were as easy as "putting a gearbox into a spring body" but you'd also have to deal with the spring, piston heads, spring guiders, batteries, and more things than I would like to count. A wise man once said, "I played airsoft for little over a year, and I've owned 14 different AEG's." If this wise man  could do it, you can certainly get your hands on 1 aeg. It's worth it. I was once (way back when) averse to aegs, but I got one and never looked back. |

Assuming you're talking about a spring rifle of some decent quality, you're going to spend the same amount of money putting an AEG gearbox into a spring rifle as you would for a full AEG.
So...why bother with all the work?

Good *Quality* spring rifle - $50+
Already made gearbox - $169+
Total - $219
Why not just buy an AEG. Would be better quality, less of an investment, be a whole lot better in long run.

i say just buy an aeg than risk screwing over your gun and you would spend about the same amount of money any way
