- HAL™ ETU Pre-installed
- 16:1 High-speed gears
- CNC Aluminium compression parts
Please note: This gearbox has an unknown-power spring pre-installed. We assume this will be an M120 and is not suitable for UK skirmish sites. We recommend replacing the spring with a Bolster Armouries M95, M100, or M105 spring.
If you're planning to refresh an old M4 AEG with high-performance internals, the Specna Arms AETHER™ Complete V2 Gearbox for M4/AR-15 AEGs is the easiest way! A complete gearbox equipped with the impressive internals which put the PRIME™ series on the map, the AETHER™ is pre-built, equipped with the HAL™ programmable ETU module and pre-wired to a Deans connector for your battery and female spade connectors for your motor.
The AETHER™ shell features witness windows so you can perfectly tune pre-cocking, angle of engagement and position the anti-reversal latch spring. This makes tuning the absolute best out of the gearbox much easier, something techs will definitely appreciate.
Also inside are CNC 16:1 ratio steel gears running on 8mm J-CAGE bushings, a reinforced piston with a full rack of steel teeth, a reinforced tappet plate for reliable feeding, and a CNC aluminium piston head, cylinder head and nozzle for maximum long-term durability. The cylinder is also CNC machined from steel, as is the spring guide. If you need a quick and easy way to bring your AR to the top tier of out-of-the-box performance, this is the solution!

Parts Fitting
Upgrades and Downgrades should only be undertaken by experienced players, or Airsoft Technicians. Please note, changing any internal parts of a weapon voids its warranty unless done in-house by our staff.
Please ensure that when fitting parts the part purchased is the correct part, as once a part has been fitted we cannot accept return.
We do know that players love to tinker, so we're here to give you help should you require it, and if needed you can get in touch with our workshop for more help!
Unique Parts
Please note that some parts may be unique to a specific brand of weapon. For example: Parts for an ASG M4A1 may not fit an ICS M4A1.
Parts from the same brand typically have a high chance of fitting, though be warned, some replicas use unique parts, so please ensure the part will fit before you attempt to fit it.
If you require help with fitting any parts feel free to get in touch with us via our Contact Us Page.
