It's almost like it's own style... lol. Closest thing would have to be the V7 tho, cause the V6 the top lip would get in the way. Kinda bizarre how they designed it like that. Some parts that are kinda unique to the Star L85 are tappet plate, nozzle, hop up unit, and cylinder head. As soon as something goes, it can be kinda SOL unless you can happen to find someone that has the proper part. The cylinder head you might be able to get away with using a v7, but don't quote me on that. Also, the air nozzle you might be able to use a P90 one (POSSIBLY) if your stock one breaks. But yeah, Star l85 gearboxes are kinda fail just cause of the semi-unique parts that are hard to find on the market. If you've got a friend that has a M14, see if you can borrow his cylinder head to test if it'll work in your gun.
