Description
This is our iteration on MagnetoDynamic's AEG magwell adapter, which they have graciously allowed us to upload here. Our alteration makes the following changes:
-Slightly reduced overall profile
-Magazine release recessed to avoid accidental engagement
-Tolerances adjusted to be compatible with more magazines
-Provision for an optional ejector spring
-Added a gutter so loose BBs can fall out of the adapter when changing mags
We have tested it extensively with MAG brand short AR midcaps, but any standard AEG AR mag should work.
In order to use this, you will also need MD's feed collar replacement, so go grab that first. You'll also need a section of 8mm spring tubing to connect the adapter to that feed collar plug.
For the adapter itself, you will need a pair of 12mm long M3 screws plus a 16mm M3. These replace the two decorative screws on the left side of the gun, and the rear left gearbox screw, respectively. Do not overtighten, they strip out easily.
And you will need to supply a spring for the mag release, and a pin for the mag release axle. We suggest using a section of 1mm steel music wire, or a 1mm drill bit or similar implement will work. There is also a slot inside the magwell for a spring to eject the magazine, but this is optional.
Let us know if you have any issues, and be sure to check out MagnetoDynamic's other work.
