Spring Shotty M203

[Falloutfan123]

Hello All,

So I'm dusting off all my old gear hoping to get back into the field at some point!

Want to refresh my old loadout and also combine Airsoft with my new hobby of 3D printing

Does anyone know where I can get hold of an M203 style spring shotgun, new or used?

Ideally something like the old Marui ones that takes shells and fires three shots a time but even something cheap and nasty with a spring stick mag will do, love a project and pretty sure I can make it work!

Many thanks in advance all!

Hope to catch some of you in person soon.

Hi, 

You're literally talking about every spring powered tri shot shotty out there! Depending on budget you can go from less than £40 for a cheap chinese lump of plastic or spunk over a ton on a Marui that probably doesn't actually shoot any better!

Fill your boots!

 BO Mnufacture / Fabarm STF-12 , I picked this up for circa £65 new (sale price ? not much of normal retail)

you will get a used one for around £40-50

good fun if everyone is using shottys or pistols only

this is the long version , they do 3 lengths ?

Cheap fun

The TM m203 is going to be pretty hard to find i think,i'm pretty sure they are out of production. I see that DE do a cheap m4 w/ tri shot m203 but i couldnt find the m203 seperately.

Have to agree haven't seen the m203 style shotguns in years even in the second hand forums.

Hang on @Falloutfan123 - did you mean something like this: http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/reviews/m203_pistol/m203_pistol.htm?

I absolutely did

Christ I remember when they first came out.

To be fair a great idea for an underbarrel launcher that would be far more handy in a pinch than a mosfet launcher.

I think you'd be lucky to find one. They weren't easy to come by 18 years ago as it was.

Gotcha, I thought you meant an actual spring cocking shotgun!

But as others have said, nobody really makes anything like that anymore, you'd be stuck with a standalone 40mm launcher so same principle but bigger shells or trying to engineer one from almost scratch!

Waiting for one to pop up on international eBay may be your best bet

My thoughts exactly then and now.

I'll keep looking, might have a go at making one.

I'm a bit out of touch with active retailers, what's my best bet for a really cheap pump action to use for donor parts?

There was a TM Trishot M203 that was in the classifieds the other week, it must have sold within the hour.

I don't think the seller knew what he had.

Sorry for the necro post, but I have a lead on some brand new spring under-barrel TM M203s and the TM Tactical Launcher (the stand alone jobby). PM me if you are interested.
