I don’t know how I got here, but I’m happy I did.
So am I 🥳
Wsg
I remember the first real AK mag I got, I was fooling around with in the car, and the bottom plate slipped out and I got popped in the jaw with the loaded spring.
Haha, had similar experience when i was younger hehe.
I love how you explain everything you do very well.
Also is there a chance of you creating a gun collection video in the future?
Thanks! I do my best but it's sometimes a challenge in English hehe. A video of my overall gun collection?
@@RealFakeGuns Yeah, I see you got a lot of AK 47's. So a video including those would be neat :)
and how should i do it for ak74 mags
i love it, plz make a video of the uzi haha
Ill post a more detailed demovid later on when i do a series of guns i have allready built. But it will take some time since i need to focus on completing other projects i have open. One thing at a time :)
Yeah! Geat Idea, really!! This fellow could do it, and easily!!! Don't you think so???
From one of your "söta bror" to the west. Love the content and your English is very good for a swede,better then 90% of the swedes I have seen on TH-cam.
I am fresh to the world of airsoft but I love making stuff look more real.I also have a LC-3 and your video on the AK4 gave me a lot of useful tips on my work making a AG-3.
Looked around for help on turning mid cap internals more milsim friendly and never found any videos.
LC-3 only has 140 round mags and for stuff like Berget you should have 100 or less rounds(unless you want to tape/mark your magazines but that's ugly),
I already figured out how to do it myself but I recommend making a video on it if you are trying to grow your channel.
I see you haven't posted much but it is great work and I would love to see more of your work.
Looking forward to LCT's EBB series, might be enough of a reason for me to go back to normal AEG so I can do this mod :D
Hi! I have this kind of project to do someday! Seeing you doing this gave me courage to do another projects, like converting electric airsoft guns to gas gus, as they're much more realistics ( I think... ) and use real steel parts to improve the realism on some replicas. Do you have a place where we could share infos?? 1000 thanks for the video!!
Great to hear. Anything can be made with the right will power! I share most of my knowledge here or at Facebook and insta. I try to answer as much as I get time.
shitty airsoft ak mags break if you breath in a close proximity of them.
loveyour content, you should get way more subs down the line hang in there
Hi, I followed your technique with a Izmash Bakelite AK47 magazine and it worked a treat!!! So, thank you so much for this video because without it, I wouldn't have even tried to do it!
Glad to help! :)
Thats really cool! I wish mass produced actual bakelite airsoft mags existed, i love the look of bakelite but i cant do an airsoft conversion bc bakelite mags are expensive and 30 round mags are banned where i live
@@nryn6023 You might be able to get a "repair kit" depending on where you are
Who disliked !?
Is it possible to convert Bakelite mags with the same technique ?
Yes it is and I've just done it today following this video. I used a dremel though with a metal cutting wheel but other than that followed the instructions exactly. So you know because I didn't, bakelite magazines have an internal metal skin that you won't see until you start cutting so it does take a while! Have fun and enjoy because your gun will look brilliant!!!!
Razorback Max thanks you for the advice ! I have my metal mags but I’ve abandonned because it’s hard to get non neutralized mags in my country, but I might find a way anyhow 🙂
@@dialytan2002 awesome! I'm going to save up all my monies and buy some!
you mean ruin not convert
@@fuctshytup Bruh, are you dumb?
Hi
I'm new to your channel and would like to use an original bakelite magazine in orange for my LCT AK-74N. Would it be possible if you try the whole video again with an AK-74 bakelite magazine?
The end result looks very good and I like your AK too. Here you have a subscription from me.
I wish you a nice Weekend! 🙂
I have seen it done. But some brands have too long internals. Not sure which is which with 74. But might get more room if you don’t use the real spring.
Have you ever convert a real AKM bakelite magazine before Im thinking about to converting a Bakelite magazine to Airsoft
will this method work for bakelite and plum mags?
Do you know of any persons or companies that would be willing to do these modifications (for a price or course) I would love to have some converted mags, but I just don't have the time or tool experience to do these myself.
ru armed do them, they charge about $40 a mag
@@mrflapjacklover I just checked their store and they look really good, but they all say "unavailable.":(
I'm planning on making some Metro Last Light 5.45 mags with the look through magazine where you can see the rounds. The idea of the picture inside the magazine to make it look like there are rounds in it is an awesome idea. Could you possibly share the files for that or tell me how you did it?
i just saw you already shared the files xD
Would this new mag work in a cyma cm.028 ak
Schnell brünierung is the same like cold blue.
Will it fit the E&L AK like this? I suppose I will need to take out the plastic part for the easy reloadings, right?
Hi love your videos what mag type did you use for this conversion thanks
Which 5.45 mags fit in the Bakelite real AK mag shells? The LCT does not (to wide front) and cyma that is coming also not i think.
For 762 mags no issues, but for my 74u i do
G&P
How can we add more weight to the magazine to become more realistic?
Is the effect gonna be similarly good if I use modern polymer mags?
Great video and explains by the way.
StaneQ Yes
Coolt! Tack för videon!
How many round's where the original magazines? I didn't hear any kind of such information in your video. And you said you have converted magazines for the Galil & G3 as well, is there a video from how you did those? Thank's in advance. Greetings
Real ones 30 and airsoft about 100-150.
Galil is pretty much just exactly the same. Did one recently.
G3 is abit different, someday I hope to do a video when I get the time. I have done one before.
@@RealFakeGuns alright thank you! Guess i'll start searching for some 😁
This seems like it’d be fun to do, but I wonder if it’d be legal in my country (Canada, we CAN have full-length magazines... but they have to have a pin in them limiting them to 5 (10 for pistols, limitless for rimfire rifle) rounds), so I wind up wondering how a Canadian airsofter would go about doing this without the RCMP kicking down their door. Perhaps modifying the feed lips, spring and follower enough to render it inoperable for real ammunition would be suitable (the idea being that one can’t simply restore it to working order for real firearms by tossing in a new follower/spring since the body of the magazine wouldn’t be able to hold it in), but *_I wouldn’t take that risk without some legal advice,_* so I won’t try it just yet).
Regardless, it seems like an incredibly nice project to do to enhance that sweet, sweet realism factor. Good stuff.
Since it will no longer be a real mag my guess is its legal. But if you are unsure, allways contact your local police and discuss it with them.

Pretty late response on my part, but you’re probably right.
I feel the best bet would be to buy a 5.45x39 (74/105) and/or 7.62x39 (47/M/103?) dummy round to test if the feed lips can still retain ammunition while shaving off the lips before removing the pin. If it can’t keep the round in, it’s likely inoperable as a proper magazine.
Of course, the downside is having an extra, unrealistic hole in my desired magazine... but that’s fine.
@@ThatOneFriendlyDude SUPER LATE response but idk if it’s different here in California, it is illegal to even possess it in the first place. So you can’t buy or order it most websites will not ship here.
@@giovmari999 If I had to guess, your state probably doesn't allow mags that are just 30-rounders pinned to only hold 10 rounds - meanwhile in Canada, most common autoloader mags are just standard-capacity mags with cheap rivets put in to stop the follower from descending past it - so in theory, you can go from pinned magazine to nonfunctional pinned magazine to nonfunctional magazine legally
Cool! What manufacturer is your AK? Do you know if this will work with other brands too?
It's a LCT with some real yugo parts.
They should fit most AEG aks.
Just picked an LCT zastava might have to do this
will this technique work with m16 magazines as well?
Is it possible to do with M16 magazines?
Is this possible with an M16a1 magazine?
I don’t have any of the required tools accept maybe a hand file, is that enough? If not in the future I might be willing to buy some 762 bakes and send them your way, Real Fake Guns.
Really want to do this but sadly where I'm at in the US, they can't deliver mags
....
Yes I heard accessing real firearms is very hard in the US… 😉
@@RealFakeGuns in some states its hard to get access to it.
For instance New Jersey.
Pleaaase tell me where did you get that M70 airsoft 🥺
Kristijan Jokić LCT makes one. I have added real parts.
How much did you pay for it?
@@KristijanJokic I bought one off of evike for about 360 US dollars
Damn that’s expensive
@@KristijanJokic kod nas ti je oko 500€
Re: the conversion using the Zastava magazine, did you keep the bolt hold open?
No.
Any special reccomendation for Bakelite 762 mags? One coming soon!
Same as in the video if i remember it right.
@@RealFakeGuns thanks, have the bakelite looks awesome, will try this thanks alot
Do you know what brand of airsoft gun is best for this type of modification?
It should fit 95% of all AKs. LCT, E&L, Real sword, VFC, CYMA, GG etc.
i want some real bakelite mags
Bra tutorial! Tummen upp!
Any recommendations on which aeg magazines to use?
Cyma
is that a Zastava M-70 at 8.50 that you own? and did you convert it to airsoft or was it bought this way?
Yes it is. Lct makes M70. This one is made with the majority of real Zastava parts. Will have a video about the build in the future 🙂
@@RealFakeGuns do you have any tip on how to make the generic plastic zastava grip on the LCT m70 shiny like the real one? Is it safe to polish it?
@@Oberkommando I used black spraypaint for a more deep black and then clear coat semi gloss spraypaint. Then very light weathering when dry with fine grit sand paper.
I’m currently designing a slim motor grip model for 3D print. Well be posted on my insta once done.
Nästa gång du ska köpa plast magasin testa att kolla brownells dom ligger i Sverige eller FK Sport (DAE) som ligger i Sthlm för då slipper du dyra frakt kostnader
Where do u buy the real mags?
Gun shops
Great video i like it a D co net it !!
What you mean abouth mechanell ?
Is there a way to convert magazines to gbb?
Yes check badabings guide th-cam.com/video/xTLsCn5dfnw/w-d-xo.html
Can you convert a real mag of an AK for gbb rifles
Badabing have a good guide for that. th-cam.com/video/xTLsCn5dfnw/w-d-xo.html
Nice AK mags
Really want to do this but Bakelites are very expensive
Whats the ak youve got mate?
LCT M70AB2. Yugo AK, tons more real parts now and will get a video of it this year.
Would you ever sell this kind of service?
I sadly dont have the time for commissions. But ask someone with some tools to do it. Very easy.
Love it yugo ak
Thanks, check the Zastava M70 video th-cam.com/video/1JU5z10mPBU/w-d-xo.html
I wonder if there is a way to do this conversiin with 20 round ak mags. You could probably do this with other real magazine shells too (eg G3, FAL, AR15). I know NPO AEG sells AEG 74 mags with fakelite, plum, and black real mag shells. Very cool video!
*conversion
The issue is that there are no midcap 20rd AK mags. But I guess you could stick a small MP5 mag in there and pin it. Yes it basically works about the same of other mags. I have done G3 and galil too.
@@RealFakeGuns I see this is an old topic, but what if you used the internals from an airsoft "spetsnaz/beta" style mag and a 20rd external shell? You could keep the internals seated by leaving extra length on the follower spring.
@@soma33 Those are not midcaps but hicaps. You could CAD and 3D print it tho.
i need bullet file for 5.45 😪
That sucks you killed the type 56 flat back. Great work though.
Cool
The witness hole is to indicate a full mag.
www.ar15.com/forums/general/magazine_witness_holes/5-1140375/
Water would go all the way to the bottom, that’s what physics says. So a more logical place to put the hole would be at the direct bottom.
Serbia
Ok so why would anyone do this, what is better than airsoft, an actual fucking gun.
I'd try to explain it to you, but it's clear that you're too closed minded to understand.
Play it in Reverse and youll know how to convert an airsoft mag to a real ak mag😱😱
Haha! When I asked you last year on redalliance if you stil have the measurements you should reply with this. 👍
