A small part that keeps you firing

The tappet plate is one of the hardest-working components inside a Version 2 gearbox. It rides against the sector gear and shuttles the air nozzle back and forth, chambering a BB and sealing the nozzle against the hop unit on every single shot. When it wears or cracks, you get misfeeds, double-feeds and dead shots.

Genuine G&G, correct fit

This is a genuine G&G Armament tappet plate cut for their M4/M16 enhanced and reinforced gearbox shells, including the popular Combat Machine and Fire Hawk platforms. Because it is the manufacturer’s own part, it drops in with the correct geometry rather than needing filing or shimming to sit right.

Ideal spare for rebuilds

At this price it is worth keeping one on the bench for any strip-down, service or feed-fault fix. It follows the standard M4 tappet pattern, but gearbox shells vary slightly between brands, so always compare it against your old part before fitting.

Frequently asked questions

What does a tappet plate actually do?

Inside a Version 2 gearbox the tappet plate rides against the sector gear and shuttles the air nozzle back and forth. On every shot it chambers a BB from the magazine and seals the nozzle against the hop unit.

Will it fit any M4 gearbox?

It is cut for G&G enhanced and reinforced M4/M16 gearbox shells, such as those in the Combat Machine and Fire Hawk. Gearbox shells vary slightly between brands, so always compare it against your old part before fitting.

Is this a genuine G&G part?

Yes. It is a genuine G&G Armament tappet plate, so it drops in with the correct geometry rather than needing filing or shimming to sit right.

Do I need any tools or skills to fit it?

Fitting requires stripping the gearbox, so it is a job for someone comfortable working inside an AEG. If you are unsure, our workshop can fit it for you.

Is there an age or UKARA requirement to buy this?

No. This is an internal spare part, not a gun, so there is no age restriction or UKARA requirement to purchase it.
