What version tappet plate in PGC M249 V3MAX Gearbox for TOP

Like title says,

I'm just wondering what version tappet plate this mechbox uses, as the original one seems quite cheap and flimsy, and I'll want to stock in some spare(s) soon. It seems to be either V2 or V3, but can't be sure 100% which one.

PGC tappets are among the best made - unlike polycarbonate or glassfibre used by Guarder, Systema and the like, the nylon PGC tappet will flex, not break.

In general, flexibility is desirable in tappet plates. A flexible Guarder tappet will last longer than a Systema one, even though the Systema feels more solid and like it's made better.

Ok, thanks for the advice guys.

My question still remains, In the eventuality of a tappet plate breakage or wear down, what version would it require?

I can't say for sure without comparing them side-by-side but I know that virtually all the PGC parts that WGC carries at the moment are for V2 Mechboxes. From the pic of the set I saw on the net, it looks like a V2 to me, and the only aftermarket tappet that PGC has advertised at the moment is a V2, so my guess would be that it uses V2 parts internally.
