Here is a entire thread on them.

As said above, anything is possible. I'm working on a Nasty pump automag right now...mostly just cause I got bored.

I believe RAP 4 used to sell them for paintball markers. I remember Big Dogg used to have one, was part of the SAW marker. Don't know if they still do. Check Opsgear.com as well

yeah i knew rap4 made them for their SAW kits but i didnt think you could buy them from retail. off topic but has anyone heard of scenarioarms.com? i thought maybe the guy who runs it may have some detailed ideas and i wanted to see if he could make a SCAR stock for me but i think he hasnt been running the sight for like 5 monthsCry. just wondering

Yeah i have fooled around with Scenario Arms sight before but i wouldn't waste time trying to get ahold of them they never get back with people it seems. Like the post earlier had for Mccarter Brown you could try what warwitch did with the Airsoft box mag but that box will only hold about 175 rounds. Not to mention you need a force feed hopper with sensors to make it work properly. I am working on the same model right now actually. The airsoft box runs about 30-40 and warwitch used a Halo Hopper for his internals (already had like 4) and used J&J epoxy "welds" to connect it all. The only major problem i hit was when you get the box mag it will have many barriers inside of it which have to be removed, and that is a lot of drememling. The other issue is i can't figure out exactly how he has that mounted on his gun...Like did he use a TM-15 stock mag and mount it on the box or use the mag on the box and modify it....

So thought i'd revive an old project, and actually go through with it this time. I've been planning it out for a while and i think this is what i'll do:

Marker will be bt tm 15

Take apart empire magna drive hopper and place basic hopper feeding system in the bottom of a military surplus .50cal ammo can/box.

Dremel hole in the side of the can and use warp feed hose or qloader hose to feed paintballs into modified rip clip adapter at the feed neck.

I'm going to fill the mag with epoxy to strengthen it, and it seems the tm 15 mag latch will be able to support a pretty decent amount of weight

I plan on taking the stock tm 15 mag and dremmling 4 holes in the mag, 2 above the metal top on the ammo can and 2 below in order secure the mag to the can/box. sheet metal will then be welded in strips together and fed through the holes.

I'll put a video up on my youtube page for a step by step when its completed in case anyones interested.

I'm hoping to have this completed by world at war, if not then for sure d-day
