What is the best battery to buy for a New Version Matrix JG T3-K1? I have been into airsoft for 3 years but I usually stick with stock. And also what kind of gearbox would I use to fix an AfterMath MP5?

What exactly is the problem with your MP5?
And the biggest battery you can fit for your JG is what I suggest. Having trouble finding a pic of your JG, so if you couldpost a link to the Replica and where you purchased it I can help you further.

My cousin put his SAW battery in and it was too big, it wore out the gears ROF too fast I guess?

I'm just worried about the gearbox with the battery because the MP5 incident...

I'd suggest a large type 8.4v 3000 mAh battery for your G3. An 8.4v will be nice and easy on your internals. I'm guessing the SAW battery was 9.4v or higher. Anything above 8.4v is generally for higher-end or highly-upgraded replicas.

I see now ok thanks for the help. Anything to fix MP5?

Subject: Re: HELP ME! Tue Jul 13, 2010 2:05 pm

What happens on the MP5 when you put a battery and pull the trigger?

Subject: Re: HELP ME! Tue Jul 13, 2010 3:25 pm

the gun doesnt shoot BBs and it just makes a grinding noise

Subject: Re: HELP ME! Tue Jul 13, 2010 3:38 pm

Adjust your motor.

How do I do that? I think thats the screw on the bottom of the handgrip?

Subject: Re: HELP ME! Tue Jul 13, 2010 5:24 pm

Yes, Drummer is right.
Okay, your motor is located in the Pistol grip. Look at the base plate and see if it takes screws, allen wrench, whatever. On my MP5 I just took the base plate off, took the motor out, and put it back in and it was fine. Or, like Drummer said, just adjust the height by adjusting the tiny screw on the base plate, like you said. It should require a small allen wrench.

Ok, thanks for the help!

Yep!! I thought the exact thing as you did when it happened to me, three years ago-I thought it was a GB problem, because honestley that is what it sounds like, two gears just spinning or grinding together...and really, that's what it is. But it's the Bevel gear and the...Pinion gear?? Oh jeez I'm gettin rusty Laughing

Okayyy it's the gear on top of the motor, and the bottom gear in the GB grinding together or not touching, just spinning...
...sorry if I'm confusing tongue

I put the gun back together, now I'm looking for an allen wrench that small...

Subject: Re: HELP ME! Tue Jul 13, 2010 11:18 pm

The Home Depot sells allen wrench sets. Lots of airsoft guns use metric allen wrenches for different things.

Subject: Re: HELP ME! Tue Jul 13, 2010 11:20 pm

Ok...I think I have some small ones in the shop...
