W.K.Shuridys Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 The spring guide is a version 2 that fits into the large plug, is it not? Link to post Share on other sites
Chrissyg Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 Yeah, I think it is, but i've never worked out how to get it off... Oh wait, does the allen key at the back unscrew and the spring guide come off so you can attach another one? That would make sense Link to post Share on other sites

rwham Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 I just ordered one and realized I didn't ask what kind of battery would fit, just large 8.4. Will a 8.4v 4200MAH fit? Link to post Share on other sites

master_titled Posted June 13, 2007 Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 Does anyone one know where I can find this part? CA249 Reinforced Lock Button The buttons that lock in the feed tray mine broke...=( <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Find a Spartan Imports dealer who will get it for you. Link to post Share on other sites
rwham Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 Im 13 And yes I know this gun will be heavy, but im not exactly weak in any way. I had arm surgery last year so I had to go into physical therapy I left that and continued lifting weights and such. So Im sure it will be quite heavy, but with a sling, I think I should be alright <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I know this is a semi-necro, but I'm 13 and just ordered one with my own money, so don't judge.

spartan490 Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Where the stock meets the reciever there should be two pins holding the stock on. On the top pin there should be a large knob. Unscrew that and pull the pin out. The stock should then swing down, allowing you to access the gearbox. Link to post Share on other sites

Crispin1025 Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 Buy a RAS... I have no idea, but if I were you, I'd take off the top cover and check the mounting on the top and bottom of the right one and go from there. Cheers, Daniel Link to post Share on other sites
fnfr3ger Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 i just did and i saw that one of the screws that are on the bottom is bent :s i have no idea how to fix it and it is pretty irritating me.. the weird part is that the right one is still firmly in place tho Link to post Share on other sites
Crispin1025 Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 No ideas there mate, but I'd say the hardware store is probably a good place to start lol. How did you mess it up in the first place? Cheers, Daniel Link to post Share on other sites
fnfr3ger Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 it just wobbled after a friend of mine had fired it and had put it back in my room.. since it is broken now , is there a possibility i could take em of and put mk1 handguards in stead ? Link to post Share on other sites
Crispin1025 Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 I don't see any reason why not, but I think some pictures are in order to ascertain the problem first. Cheers, Daniel Link to post Share on other sites
fnfr3ger Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 i will take some pics with my cellphone tomorrow but how do i change the handguards ? can anyone please help me with that ? Link to post Share on other sites
spartan490 Posted June 24, 2007 Report Share Posted June 24, 2007 I finally got my own CA M249, and I must say I am impressed. I have owned both a STAR M249 and a VFC MK43 and this gun hands down beats both in performance and quality IMHO. One of the most pleasant traits I found was how heavy it was! I was quite surprised to find the Para is noticably heavier than my MK43 despite it being smaller. After fiddling with it for about half an hour I decided to go out and shoot her. She shoots well, but I was really put off by the small battery capacity and the stupid boxmag. I'm used to my old support weapons, both of which fed automatically when you pulled the trigger. Luckily I'm not a complete moron when it comes to electronics and after about half an hour of disassembling and soldiering I had the battery rerouted to the boxmag and the feed mechanism wired to the trigger. Now with a 9.6v battery and auto feed I was ready to try her out again. WOW, this gun is a beast!!. With the larger battery the ROF was crazy and I emptied the whole mag in about 1 min. I am definetly pleased with my purchase! Later I'll probably buy a CA cloth mag and see how that works out. Has anyone tried one yet? A couple of pics: i will take some pics with my cellphone tomorrow but how do i change the handguards ? can anyone please help me with that ? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> fnfr3ger look Inside the space where the bipod folds into, there should be 4 allen screws, two on each side. Unscrew them to remove the handguards Link to post Share on other sites
