just wondering has any one done the conversion with the new WE m14? ive already done mine with a cyma so i cant do this, but it would be cool for someone to, if theyve got the money. if you think about it it would be just as practical as the electric, but mags are expensive and be hard to modify? again no plans for it just wanted to see if anyone has pondered this.

I've considered doing this. There is no way to modify the magazines though and you will have to use the M14 mags. I'm sure it can be done. It will also be much easier to install into a real garand stock because there is no motor to think about. The only downside would be the magazines.

yeah the motor thing was what got me thinking about this. yeah magazines would be near impossible. maybey someone could come up with some sort of pistol magazine that works in it like the shotgun mags for the electric? sure would be nice.

Remembr that your magazines on the WE M14 contain both the BBs and more importantly the gas. With so little space to work with I doupt you'd end up with enough space in the shortened clips and if you could can you imagine what it would require in time and expense to fabricate?
Seemingly a great idea until you stop and think about it.

yeah..not to mention if someone could cut it and weld it together there wouldnt be enough of a tank left for the gas. maybey enough for the 8 rounds and to lock back, but that would be about it. no speed-loader reloads either. come on china we need a garand!!

One idea that comes to mind is something similar to a KJW M700 mag, if by some crazy chance that could be modded into fit or something similar to be produced. Real long shot, just an idea.

hmm maybey someone should get a m700 mag and a m14 and try it out! that would be pretty cool. if it could be modded to work with a gbb gun then it would work.
