Hey guys,
I'm in the midst of building an M4, so far I've put together:
-G&P Zombie Killer Metal Body
pt# gp542b
-G&P Body Furniture kit
pt# gp790b
-G&P CQB/R RIS w/Barrel
pt# gp249
-G&P Extented Battery ButtStock (Crane style)
-G&P 9.6v 2200mah Battery
-TM EG1000 motor
-Magpul Grip
-TM 363mm inner barrel
-King Arms 200mm Silencer
I'm planning on using the drop-in style Systema mechbox for the simplicity of not having to get one built and putting parts together. I've decided that the M120 level mech-box is the most practical for the style of play, feild FPS limits, etc.
I'm a loyal Redwolf customer and I've made most of my purchases from them. As a bonus, they offer free shipping on all systema gear boxes. So, no brainer, buy mechbox from them.
Unfortunately they only ever seem to have the front wired versions of this box and not the rear wired versions. I was planning on buying the rear wired one but I'm at the point where I'm just going to get the front wired box.
So is there any difference (aside from wiring) between the two boxes? Advantages/Disadvantages?
Is there much of a hassle to route the wires to the back?
Should I wait another 3 months(or whenever) for the rear wired boxes to get back into stock?
This is my first attempt at buidling a gun and I consider myself a little-wet-behind-the-ears in the feild of "M4 AEG assembly/disassembly". Is dropping in a mechbox, wiring, and lining up gearbox to motor myself going over my head?

The alignment of the motor on your gun to the first bevel gear must be done correctly in order to avoid stripping the gears on first test.

How do I go about lining everything up? Is there an internet guide/tech article for lining up the motor to the bevel gear?
Sorry for all the questions... I appreciate your patience. Look forward to any advice.
Thanks,
Joel
