    Hey all! Id like to replace the spring guide on my gun as its just plastic and kinda cheap but dont know what version it is and where i can get one. I dont know if you can even get one as id say they are unique ones! Well any advice would be great!

    From a quick google search it looks like the ARES PPSH uses a Version 7 gearbox...so M14 spring guides should work fine. I am in no way 100% certain of this, but hey I figure it's still worth posting :)

    Ok thanks for that! Yeah i think it is a v7 but it uses a quick spring change system and has like a sort of big allen key hole in the back of the guide. Just thought it might be different to normal v7. Cheers for that! Will buy one and see i suppose! :)

    Have one of these,and the spring guide broke aswell.Its not a v7 gearbox but its ares v7 and not all aparts are compatible.Theres not alot of info around of these so I contacted Ares.I tried other spring guides and they didnt fit due to the small bolt/nut on the guide so I just replaced it with an orginal from Ares.Got stick mags from them too,much nice looking then the drum mag.

    My spring guide isnt broke just thought id replace it with a metal bearing one or something if they were available. Yeah im defo gonna get those curved mags when i get the chance. Do they make the gun any lighter as its quite heavy with the drum mag?

    I always say if its not broke don't fix it and that gun isn't the friendliest to work on.Not that much lighter but way more manageable and comfortable to hold
