Hi, can anyone tell me where I can aquire the correct length/size spring which carries the BB's from the drum mag to the hop on a converted airsoft MG42. At the moment I am using a clear rubber 8mm hose but think the spring type looks better, cheers, Tony-- attachment is not available --

When you find out please let me know!

Lt. Morris Schaffer: "Second rate punk," eh?
Major John Smith: Sorry. All I could think of on the spur of the moment.
Lt. Morris Schaffer: Thanks, that makes it even worse.

I think Barrie & Anne may know, I did have a link to a supplier, (given to me by B&A I think), but I lost it when my laptop packed up.

It's called a "continuous length entension spring". If I recall, the ones on the MG42's that I built were 8mm ones.



When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!

Got my spring today. Bloody expensive del, but the spring is top notch. Thanks for the info.
