Zereck Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 Its not hard you just have to take out a lot of screws. After you take out the outer barrel with the hop-up(about 10 screws), you'll need to take out 5(I think) screws near the stock on the receiver. Then you can take out the lower part entirely since the cables can be disconnected there(I think you can pull out the wires left in the stock through it). Also there are some small parts(the recoil weight) on the gearbox you have to watch out for. But here is a video. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

blam360 Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Picked up a scar h today. Very happy with it so far. Recoil shocks are just much more fun. Looking for a battery now - is the little latch/hinge looking thing at the top of the stock (see photo) important? Me thinks by removing it I can squeeze a larger size batt into the stock. From the looks of things it doesn't seem important. Also does anyone's stock squeak like mad? Even touching the stock ever so slightly makes it squeak.

FTZ-WildeCard Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Yep the stock on my SCAR H is very squeaky. For mine if you squeeze the stock gently near where it pivots for the cheek rest, that's where the sound usually comes from. I messed around with it a bit and bracing that area with a rubber band seems to help a little but I couldn't really eliminate it. A small niggle that I can overlook as the rest of the gun is amazing. As far as the hinge, I don't think it's important. I think it's some kind of wire guide for the battery - does swinging it out and over the battery after installation not give enough space for you? I could almost squeeze in a 2200mah pack, but my battery has an excess of wire which takes up too much space. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zereck Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Yes its a battery wire guide but it only works really with the battery Marui recommends. You can remove it easily and you'll have bigger space for batteries. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Richard Y Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 the stocks pretty easy to take apart, you can remove the check piece and grease the check piece release button. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jammie654 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 My Scar-L has started to dry fire and mis feed, Any ideas what it could be? Does it on brand new and old mags but if i hold the mag it will start feeding as normal Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Y Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 try and clean one of the old mags first. whats the history has the gun been taken apart before? I would try making sire the gearbox and hop unit are seated correctly. sometimes taking it apart and reassembling it is enough to fix. failing that you could try, new tappet plate, incase the old is not retracting enough. or mag release catch, incase the old is worn and the mags are being held in to low. if a mate has a doner gun you can quickly try the mag catch its just one screw.

jammie654 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 You got any Mag catches in Stock Richard? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Y Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 yeah bit lucky timing really, today ill be listing every single part from the FDE SCAR L manual. Descriptions wont be pretty, my fav was a "SCAR L plastic bit in the stock" :/ My continuing mission to list every part from the manuals for all tm, and we start with scar. A lot of SCAR L parts work with SCAR H, but i have found it easier listing parts for specific guns now. example, Tokyo Marui - SCAR L Mag Release Catch For SCAR Next Generation RS Series this is part SCAR-54 in the manual and in the SCAR H manual its part SCAR-113. I bet you a million pounds they are the same. But theres sometimes subtile little differences, other times theres no diff, so im going to list tm parts in the format ***gun its from - Part description - Series of gun it could fit ie SCAR or M4 Series***. I want a format which includes the chance of TM in may releasing yet another variant to a series. ie another scar or another HK or another m4. A lot of the parts will fit that same SERIES of guns. Also reduced prices as im sourcing from a cheaper place in japan. All the manual parts are in a spread sheet now, well they are for scar, still have to do the others, so there's no guestimating prices. Its all auto matic now based on whatever the supplier charges so theoretically i can cut the margins closer know that technically im still covering costs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

blam360 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 can anyone share how to remove the charging handle? I've gotten to this point but can't figure out how to remove the charging handle nub. It doesn't seem to want to slide out and I can't twist it either Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Y Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Handle has an Allen bolt holding it on. When it's removed just push the insert out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blam360 Posted April 2, 2014 Report Share Posted April 2, 2014 I've removed the charging handle but the nub/insert doesn't seem to want to come out. I pull it all the way back so it lines up with the rear hole but it still refuses to be push out or twisted out Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jammie654 Posted April 2, 2014 Report Share Posted April 2, 2014 Anyone else having issues with the bolt catch no functioning properly, Stripped and re assembled but still having issues. Any fixe or modifications for it to work properly? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Y Posted April 2, 2014 Report Share Posted April 2, 2014 If its all in the right place it should work fine. Try cleaning the mags maybe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jammie654 Posted May 29, 2014 Report Share Posted May 29, 2014 As much as i love my TM Scar-L i have just bought a replacement for it, Stepping away from Recoil and i didn't really get on that well with the Scar platform, Back to the old common AR15 Variants for me. Might get another recoil at some point though if TM release something a bit different, Or maybe just the GBBR M4 they will soon have Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steelfallenangel Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Can anyone atest to the quality of the Laylax aftermarket screws or shell deflector? Got one of these second hand that had a faulty rear half of the wiring hairness (finger's crossed that was all it was) and I'm about to place a order with Eagle6 for the part but I figured to save on shipping I may as well get any Laylax parts that should be picked up. So the shell deflector had snapped off in shipping so I'm curious on if Laylax's holds up as they claim and if there replacement scews or frame lock pin are worth the investment or are just overkill.

Richard Y Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 The laylax bits are high quality and extremely strong, exactly what you'd expect from them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steelfallenangel Posted August 2, 2014 Report Share Posted August 2, 2014 Richard Y, Did you guys ever find any aftermarket parts that would offer a greater feeling of recoil from this system? I know that the AR15 series has a selection of different springs available to offer more or less recoil but I couldn't find anything on your site indicating that there was anything for the Scar. Also is there any differences in the lower receivers between the Mk16 and Mk17 besides the enlarged magazine well? I may in the future decide to swap out my lower for a black one to match my VFCs but would like to know if I would be able to swap calibers as well without needing anything else besides the lower.

point_7 Posted August 2, 2014 Report Share Posted August 2, 2014 you cant change the lowers from L to H . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steelfallenangel Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 Could you go alittle more into that? They use the same gearbox and hopup from everything I've seen. And that outside of some markings that the only difference for the airsoft models is the lower receiver and the fact that the Mk17 uses it's own styled magazines.

blam360 Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 the H lower is longer than the L lower, meaning the upper is also longer on the H. you can't mix and match uppers and lowers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sacairsoftsn00py Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 Point where the front receiver on attaches is different Quote Link to post Share on other sites
