I’ve owned both and the M170R is a much better gun. 3x the price better? No. But if you just play rec or strictly mechanical the jump to M170R is worth it. The one thing the Emek has going for it over the M170R are the wrap around grips. Sadly sold my M170R since I don’t play enough rec/mech these days to justify it but I did keep the Emek as a loaner and recball day gun. Can’t go wrong with either gun but anyone who says the M170R is the same but aluminum chassis doesn’t know what they’re talking about.

I had no idea about the slight offset feed. Way cool. I had a M170R very briefly, never used. I have an EMEK currently, and have owned a few and used them a lot. I keep going back and forth about getting a M170R instead. I do like refinement!

Thanks for the message, we shoot both FLE Emeks and m170r’s and now also the mech CS2 on the team. It’s an amazing set of options from Planet. And the Inception upgrades for the Emek take it to another level!👍

EMEK ASA can be upgraded to a POPS. Problem with the EMEK feedneck; will not allow Pinoko/HK Speed to fit properly because of the PALs protruding.

Steve Acevedo hey thanks for your comment. Yes the Emek can be upgraded to a pops asa, I believe we mentioned that in the summary at the end of the vid. Interesting about the feedneck we’ll check that out!👍

There are some aftermarket feedneck options that will allow you to use a Pinokio Speed that also have a lower profile for the PAL enabled Emek (removes the PAL function.

Are the gamma core parts interchangeable? Can you use the can from a 170r in an emek?
@MayhemTigers

Hi Kris, thanks for your message, not all the gamma core parts are interchangeable because of how the core meets up with the back cap design. There’s also a difference in how the shot chamber is machined. But parts like the bolt are interchangeable so for example the new soft tip bolt will fit the Emek and the M170r.

@@MayhemTigers Thanks for the info! I'm actually trying to see if there's a way to complete a conversion from 50 cal to 68 for an Etha 2. I already have the body with aluminum insert. I also have an emek that I have been switching the core out if I want to switch from mech to electric, but I'm still looking for a more permanent solution, hopefully using parts of the 50 cal gamma core with the gtek

Really depends on if you really, really want an all metal marker. Emek is a great platform to upgrade.
