Hello guys new poster here. I'm trying to get feedback from the airsoft comunity about this little mod:

My friend is the creator of the mod and I'm researching to see if this would be a good way to earn a few bucks doing what we love.

 

So what do you guys think? Is there demand for this kind of product?

 

(For those who didn't watch the video: We modded a magazine so that a gbb rifle could fire using HPA. This way you wouldn't have to waste money on CO2 cartridges)

 

Thanks for your time, Álvaro Bernardes

Have a look at polar star.

They are already doing this on a sohpisticated level, with full gearbox replacements and guns. They have drop in replacements for where the gearbox goes, with their own gas system. Meaning you can use any capacity AEG magazine you like, with a huge range of guns available.

 

Your problem is with the gun being gas fed from the magazine. Meaning no reloading and game types like milsim games with ammo limits would ban high capacity magazines.

 

If it is just for replacements for WE systems it looks good, however it will be a very small market. If people wanted a high capacity gas gun Polar Star are winning the crowd atm.

Saw this on reddit,and I like it quite a lot. If it can somehow be implemented as part of the gun,not the magazine,allowing midcaps and low caps to be used,that's be really cool. I do have an idea in my head where the parts of the mag containing the valve+Feed lips is permanent,and having AEG mags being attached to the gun permanently,but that will be very hard to to.

 

If I had a GBBR,I'd sacrifice the realism of low caps to do this as in Ireland our weather monster hates GBBs.
