Guest Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 Picked it up in a trade deal, will likely keep it, but interested to know what if might be worth. original box, 29shells. Pretty good but not perfect condition, I’ve replaced the piston head with a decent Tm G17 one, reduced the trigger pull and enhanced the ejector with the steel modification so it doesn’t wear out.

BigStew Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 they are £300 to £400 ish new currently sold out though, considering unknow age £250 to £270.
Cromulon1994 Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 Hi, sold an unskirmished one, in box 30 shells, about a week ago. £250. I've picked them up before for around the 50 quid mark but they were unboxed shorter ones.

There were 30 shells, one fired itself under my shed whilst I was testing the ejector modification ? I’m pretty sure I’m keeping it, I love it, even though it’s likely to end up in an AA-12 ?

They fit inside Marui spas 12 bodies.
Cromulon1994 Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 It should, also be plenty of space for an internal gas tank. However, how are you going to have it mag fed? Having had many apart in the past I don't see how you could make one magazine fed.

hitmanNo2 Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 I'd be intrigued as to your plans too. I've laid an M1100 on an AA12 trying to work out how to it. I figured you'd need to use the M1100's tube mag and the AA12 mag would just be for show but there is so much stuff that just doesn't line up.

Giraffe Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 Interesting project... the M1100 gas system is pretty much bulletproof. A weak spot is is the fake bolt. I had a few snap at the attaching point to the blowback mechanism when putting high pressure gas through it, but it'd be straightforward to fab up a flat AA-12 shaped bolt out of steel or alu.

Honestly, I think the two biggest issues will be getting it to lock back on empty, and reworking the fire control group to allow for full auto. Im in no rush, however, I have all winter ??
Giraffe Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 Since the AA-12 is open-bolt (i think), could instead of a lock open device have something on the mag follower that blocks the trigger so it stops shooting with the bolt closed after the last shot? Sorry, I'm sure you've got loads of ideas... it's just Maruzen shotguns and the tinkering of were very much my thing
Cromulon1994 Posted October 4, 2020 Posted October 4, 2020 The shell lifters can break too, had 2 go on me.
