What is needed? (Emek + Etha3M body)

[glaman5266]

I have an Emek & a spare Etha3M body (inner, outer & back cap). I've read that the lowers for both paintguns are pretty much the same, so now I'm interested in putting the Etha3M body on my Emek, mainly for the quick-strip feature. I'm assuming parts that attach the bolt to the back cap are different in these two, so I'm wondering what one would need to allow the use of the Etha3M body.

Any input would be appreciated.

Simon said it’s like a $20+\- part that holds the bolt cap to the frame. I would swap mine out but it shoots to good I’m going to leave it alone.

I even just took the back cap off my Emek because I rarely need to take the bolt out. Plus it looks cooler without it. It's in the tool box in case I need to screw it back on at the field, but that's a rare occasion

Wait- you can do that?

You would need the back half of the etha3m bolt and associated hardware.

And you have a 3m core?

I do not. They were left over when I got my Inception body kit. But this is good to know. Thanks.

If you haven't found it already, because maybe you were the one who also asked on FB and someone posted the link, this is what is needed.

Ahh a lil more than I thought. But obviously an easy swap. Cool thanks for the info. That red and black acid wash ripper 3M has been calling my name but if I make it to pretty I might second guess that rocky dive into the fifty, and we can’t have that lol.

Wasn’t me (not on FB), but good to know. Thank you.
