Cyma AEP gearboxes are fairly common and cheap. The one linked is for the USP, but for your usage it probably doesn't matter. You would likely need to design and print a new cylinder head (the white thing at the top of the gearbox) and you would need some mechanism or a microswitch and a computerised mosfet to get the tappet plate movement for semi auto and possibly monitor cycles. These gearboxes are usualy held by pins, but you can design and 3d print an appropriate enclosure and skip the pins. These gearboxes cylinder have enough air volume for up to 250mm barrels with lightweight ammo such as 0.20g, but the heavier you go, the more air loss you will get, so a standards AEP length barrel (about 140mm) is probably a better choice. Depending on the quality of your air seal and the length of the barrel expect anywhere between 190fps to 250 fps with 0.20g BBs.
