Re: Airsoft AICS Stock . . . ?
the following comes from the ebay ad..." All airsoft guns, parts & accessories do not support live ammunition and are impossible to modify."
sounds like it would be too much work. You might just be doing more harm than good. besides that isnt this a 700 stock? so how much mod are you going to have to do to A: make it fit a savage? and B: make it work and function period?
I’m just gonna say this only because I’m tired of hear these type of statements.… those “caution” statements on Airsoft websites are full of BS. I am a certified Glock, Sig, and M4/m16/AR platform Armorer as well as a Licensed federal SOT holder which allows me to legally build full auto firearms, Glock switches, suppressors, and anything else you can think of as long as they never leave the assigned SOT licensed property and they can never be sold or given to anyone either.
I mention the above first because I wanted to make it clear that I’m legally allowed to do what I’m about to say and that I’m well trained and skilled in my craft and I did the following projects for research purposes only. They were never kept and they were all eventually destroyed in accordance with federal laws. But I have successfully built Fully Automatic AR’s using “Airsoft” Lower and Upper Receivers, gas blocks, charging handles, and many other external and internal Airsoft parts before… many of times. Of course there are brands that work and there are brands that are much harder to convert due to the type of alloy metal they use and their tolerances or lack there of. But for the most part i would say about 1/3 of all Airsoft receivers and frames are of good enough material like 7075-T6 or steel ( but definitely not Magnesium and I would stay away from Airsoft parts listed as 6065 aluminum as well because it’s usually not truly 6064) and are absolutely either close enough in design or are an absolute 1:1 perfect clones and can be used in the production of the real steel version of whatever “replica” they are saying it is of. I have even built very nice and reliable sig p329’s, Sig p226’s, many Glocks, M4’s, AK’s, lots of 870 shotguns, and even flare grenade launchers. I also have built about 20 real and well functioning clone suppressors from replica/mock Airsoft suppressors just by using their QD aluminum or steel modeled can that’s hollowed out. I’m currently working on the baffles for my clone QD sandman K suppressor project and just need to pick out one of my baffle core designs that is closest to the real steel suppressors baffle design, and from there it’s easy peasy. Most the time I have to go and buy the real muzzle device that mates with the real version of the replica which can cost a bit but they always attach perfectly and function as they are meant to and lock up nicely with the Airsoft replica models. I even had a Rugged suppressors obsidian 9 replica Airsoft suppressor I bought last year and turned it in to a real steel model that used real steel rugged suppressors booster piston assembly. But I didn’t have any similar baffles for the project but then realized that the replica suppressor came with a single aluminum baffle cup that was an exact copy of the real steel baffles. So I was able to use that one piece and send it to my machinist buddy and have him copy the replica baffle cup and make 10 identical ones out of steel and titanium for me and in less than a week I had an identical rugged suppressor obsidian 9 in my hands with identical internals and a few real steel part and it only costed me about $225 in total to make in comparison to $699-$899 depending on where you look for them online.
Anyways I say that because I always hear people talking about how you can’t turn airsoft guns in a real guns or this and that when they have absolutely no idea what they’re talking about and I’ve never said anything before, but I decided I was going to just go ahead and nip this in the butt for good. It is possible in certain cases with certain parts.but I will never I mention any of those brand names or anything like that. Just wanted to clarify and lay out my experience and my knowledge on the matter.
Cheers
P.S. don’t try anything I mentioned above. I have training and knowledge on the craft and know all the different types of metals capabilities. If you want to do what I did than go get your SOT license because if you don’t and an accident happens and you shoot yourself are you gonna end up in the hospital for a while and as soon as you get out you’re gonna go to federal prison for a while where you will get to make some new friends that want to get close to you for all the reasons that you don’t. It ain’t worth it.
