So I know someone who wants to buy one of those cheap little guns off of http://www.flashdistributor.com/

(a glock 17) and try to make it fire by putting in a real glock barrel and stuff. Anybody has any idea if this would actually work? Im expecting either 1 it would take to many parts or 2 it blows up.

Dont try it .

Don't even try it.  I own plenty of airsoft.  You wouldn't be able to get a real barrel to fit without extensive modifications, not to mention trying to stuff the striker assembly into the weapon in place of the spring piston.  I own a spring-powered airsoft Glock 19 myself that I have taken apart and done trigger work on (lightening the sear spring and polishing the trigger arm).  You can't convert one of these into a real gun without an extreme amount of work, nor would it be safe at all.  You'd have a KB.  Not to mention you'd have to buy a real Glock slide, because plastic slides are not made for this at all and you can't put an extractor on an airsoft slide (LOL).  Oh, and I don't know about the Glock, but the spring and gas 1911's I have will NOT accept real 1911 mags and probably never will no matter what you do to it.  Trying to machine it to accept a real mag will probably just ruin the frame.  IBTL, and hopefully I've given enough of a listing of why you can't/shouldn't do this.  Not to mention there's enough goons out there who follow the "if it looks like a gun, it's a gun" mentality and want to ban airsoft.  Don't give the anti's any ammo, I like my airsoft just like I like all other guns.

Haha yeah well I wasnt gonna try it I know someone who said they'd like to try it.  I personly wouldnt waste my time nor money nor put any trust in one of those things but I was wondering if someone here did something like that before .

why would we?

it would be easier and safer just to buy a REAL gun that works

Just as a project to see if it can work .

LOL. NO WAY! If you do please take a video when you shoot it and post it if you are still alive.


Sorry about the sarcasim. Every body has questions they want to ask and it is a good thing you asked instead of doing it. It would not be safe and I do not think the parts could even fit. They may look the same on the out side but the guts are 100% different.

THIS IS THE STUPIDEST POST EVER.

Only Gaston can make a GLOCK.
Mmmmkay?

I do believe I have to agree.

To be honest, I'd never thought of this idea.
A lot of us have tried new and different approaches to shooting.
Reasonable people are always curious.
Do let us know how this works out for your "friend".

Hey if I put a high power spring in that baby and get tungston 6mm bbs could I use it for self defense?

Great moogly googly.

Dumber than the pothead and the double ND "sear test"?

Surely you jest.

Not as stupid as the post where we learned about your name.

This ranks right up there with the bump fireing of the AR under water

Here, hold my beer !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, I disagree.  This far exceeds the bump fire under water thread.  At least that guy knew what a bone head he was.

So what the hell does IBTL mean?

In Before the Lock.  Give this thread a little while and it will wind up locked for the sheer stupidity of the statement.  MJD
