    It wouldnt be too much of a change to do but the problem is in the feeding, you'd need to fit a pretty small, flush fitting magazine or similar way of loading BBs., would be cool though.,:)

    seen it done a few times, there are also some kits out there, the easiest one to get hold of is make by shoot and scoot http://www.shootnscoot.co.uk/

    a good source of guide on this is over at comrade in forums http://www.ww2airsoft.org.uk/

    you can not by the short mags of the shelf but there easy enough to make out of m14 mids with a bit of patience

    Its possible and has been done, but a lot of links and the people that did conversions dont exist anymore...

    Here a pdf of a conversion guide i found that uses a few bits of RS furnature.

    It is possible to make 12 round lowcaps for it too from the metal magazines :)
    With some tinkering swearing and blood :)
