Airsoft VSR-10 to M4 Mag Adapter Grip

thingiverse

Adapter to use hi-cap M4 magazines on a VSR-10/BAR-10 airsoft sniper. It holds the mag at an angle for a lower profile and better hand placement. If you know what you're doing, you can probably print the whole part as one unit except for the mag release button, so I included the full STL. As you can tell by the photos, I made all kinds of mistakes printing mine in sections, but it still works with minimal sanding. I fit a drill bit through the feed tube on parts 1 and 2 to align them perfectly when gluing. To save time and plastic, use thicker walls, higher fill, and finer presision on the important parts, then make the rest thin and rough. You could technically print only parts 1 and 2 and have a working mod to try out before you print the rest. The adapter can be held in like a normal mag, but the two other holes line up with the stock bolts to avoid putting all the stress on the mag release. My front bolt was long enough, but I had to steal a rear bolt from an M24 for the other. (Anyone looking at my designs can probably guess I have a plethora of boneyard sniper parts.) This ill-conceived mod came about when I was sleep-deprived and messing with my CQB sniper, a horrible little Chinese off-brand VSR-10 that someone threw way too much paint at. When I was more conscious, I went back and adjusted some measurements so it also fits my standard BAR-10. One improvement I'd like to make is to rotate the M4 mag more level to the sniper stock and bring it all up closer. However, looking back at the mess of dimensions I made while barely awake, I cannot seem to find out how to rotate it without breaking the model. If only I still had SolidWorks. The only way it would be worthwhile to improve this design is if someone paid me to. Anyway, if you want to support my terrible ideas, please feel free to leave a tip. It would really help me feel better about throwing so much filament at airsoft parts.
