ok chaps, can someone tell which shotgun mags to use in the M14 to M1 garand conversions?
there seems to be that many now on the market, as and when you can find them :?

cheers
Rob

Only seen them on Airsoft GI and Evike. I brought the last ones of Airsoft club and they have not been in stock since. Cheapest atm is Evike but $7 is still a rip off!

The shotgun mags were based on the CA870 (pictured below) i believe it possible to convert these.

Failing that the larger types are in stock every where (pictured below) and these again might be able to be chopped down to fit.

no probs they normaly take there time any hows :)
we used to sell them for 5.00 each but they were all ready for your m1 ie converted :) they used to cost about 2.00 each way back then,
we were allso the first peeps to find these were just right for the M1 convertions ;)

i,l have to see what they land at tbh before giving you a price.

picked up 4 of the mags in the bottom picture, cant figure out a way to keep em in the mag well without heavily modifying them :roll:

anyone got any ideas on how to convert these mags?

only problem is I dont really want to modify the magwell as I want to use the M1 on open days with M14 mags :?

A mate is hopefully getting 2 knackered M14 mags to me soon so will cut and modify them to take the shotty mags :good:

pictures on your magwell conversion would be good :good:
