The major differences when it comes to fixing it when it breaks is that the TM uses specific v6 bushings and gears. The CA uses standard 7mm bushings and v2/3 gears of which there are far more choices available.
of KA and G&G have slightly different and proprietary gearbox shells, but I'm pretty sure they use v2/3 gears and parts.
Also, if you break a gearbox shell for p90, there is no viable replacement gearbox shell on the market. My attempts to get replacement CA shells have been met with silence from dealers and factory. The only one you can get is TM with the aforementioned special case with gears/bushings.

I've always had a fairly easy time finding TM gearbox shells. Yes it sucks that their bushings and gears are proprietary but you can run standard gears if you just flip the oval bushing around. Some folks will tell you not to do this but I've been running standard SHS 13:1 gears in my TM gearbox for over 2 years now at 400 FPS/35ish RPS and I've not had a single issue.
