looking to make 95 round mid caps from real steel Thompson mags can any one point me in the direction of somewhere i can get suitable plastic hose. google is only showing up industrial sales.

Re: short Thompson mid cap

There is a thread in a WW2 airsoft forum detailing how to cut down "30-round" size mids into "20-round" size mids if that helps.

Will the real-steel mags fit your gun? I have a real-steel 20-round mag that's very tight (too tight) on my Cyma gun.

You do know that you can already get the 20rd midcaps except with a 190 rnd capacity?

I assumed he meant a spring midcap, not a hicap mechanism in a short box

Re: short Thompson mid cap

yep want spring mid caps with that specific capacity. the gun needs a bit of sanding to fit the real steal.

Re: short Thompson mid cap

found the hose now need to trace suitable length springs.

Maybe source some 95rd midcaps for other guns? As long as they have the spring, it should be somewhat universal... Or so you'd think :p

Re: short Thompson mid cap

would be cheaper to buy springs than hack up mid caps but may have to.

Re: short Thompson mid cap

Well I was thinking something like buy existing broken midcaps at a discount e.g. feed problems or broken casing. But you're probably right either way :p
