I've read conflicting reports about the barrel however, the A&K and CA barrels are the same, but some people stated the G&P barrels fit and others stated they didn't (differences in construction).

All CA parts should fit fine on the A&K.

There also appears to be at least some TOP parts which will fit: some people have claimed the CA249 was itself mostly a copy of the TOP M249, except with a clone of the PGC aftermarket gearbox (which accepted regular v2/v3 parts) instead of the proprietary and more troublesome TOP one.

Hopefully someone with more experience on this can chime in (also curiously about the pistol grip).
I can confirm that the CA m249 is a copy of a TOP with a PGC Gearbox, even down to the HOP unit being a copy of the PGC unit..

MOST stocks for M249's are interchangable (solid stock) because of desperation i put a STAR solid stock (solid and retractable are compatible) on my M249, also, the G&P mk46 outer barrels i have seen _appear_ to be a correct fit, but i cannot confirm this.. also, i think i've seen the CA outer barrel (gas-parts forward section of the barrel) on evike.. (but it's full length)
