Good news is that there is another option for you.
Bad news is it's gonna cost... But then, you really do get what you pay for!!
You want what I call a Hero: Prop Version - I'm doing the same thing, myself (although someone else is building it for me, coz I'm crap).
Basically every thing moves, lights up or does something - Magazine, stock, safety, fire select, counter, cocking handle, bolt, sling... even the grenade launcher pumps, chambers and ejects M40 grenades, which are DATA's prop version with removable caps and sprung plungers.
I expect this will have costed about £1,000 or so by the time it's finished.
- Airsoft Thompson, gearbox and motor removed (donate it to an Airsofter here), front carved out and a false bolt inserted.
- Airsoft Remington 870 (mine's a Maruzen), cut in the normal way.
- Real SPAS handguard and slide-action-sleeve, cut to fit and with the Remington stuffed up inside it.
- Tommin adaptor, to attach the SPAS cage to the Thompson.
- Real metal vent, front block and stock.
- Custom stock locking mechanism.
- Bit of metal tubing for the barrel.
- Matsuo resin shrouds and magazine end plate.
- Real Thomson 20rnd magazines (cheaper), with the Thompson modded to fit them.
- LED Counter.
- Matt Noble sling.
I'm keeping the original grip, just because I like it.
I'm undecided whether to have a static or FX counter...
There are a few other small components here and there - Just about everything there is for sale by members here!!
If not, we know where to get it.
