Cracking open tm p90 body?

PrIeSt · December 14th, 2011, 17:07

Has anyone done this? It's seems like it may be glued. Do the screws do anything?
I can't seem to find anything in anyone having done this yet?

Why would you?

there is no need to open the body to remove the internals... they come out the butt

he accidentally melted his after stripping off his paint job and reapplying his primer...

echo1 replacement body time...

pretty sure it's glued/welded along the seam, it definitely is along the top. there might be some metal pins that tension it together but they can't be pulled out unless you split the halves. I've never done it, but I've heard of people who have done it to realign the gearbox to hopup.

Some screws are real and some are cosmetic.

What Danke Said.

Guardian has done this before when he posted up his P90 integrated laser mod. Hit him up for more details.

I own a P90 but haven't remotely looked at the body in detail.

If I had to guess, being at work and not with the gun in hand, wouldn't TM sonically weld the plastic, and not glue it?

Pretty sure it's glued, stands to reason it's the least expensive method of putting the two halves together on a mass production scale.

Anyway, if you're replacing a damaged receiver, does it really matter how you take it apart?

Has nothing to do with replacing. I was wondering if it can be split

D.Kovacs · December 16th, 2011, 10:00

a band saw will do it quite nicely.

White_knight · December 16th, 2011, 10:05

I was wondering how it was done to install the laser. All the useless comments about bandsaws etc. are super helpful though. Thanks guys

simply typing in "p90 laser" in the search bar gave me this link.

I went to the vault and pulled mine out. It sure doesn't look like that body comes apart even minus the screws.

What if you go at this the other way? How does the replacement body come apart?

Your awesome dave, Did you click the link in the almighty thread you found? I'm not sure why you insist on responding like an ass to every post I make. Simply don't respond to me.

Anyways....
They will both be TM bodies. so nothing different. I think I may need to message one of the members who did it, was hoping someone would see this rather than pestering someone who may be busy.
