The people who deny you playing with them over this level of silly and arbitrary rules are the same type of people who told me not to bother with making the drum42 because it has over "x" rounds per mag. They are just stupid pointless rules designed by GI-Joe wanna be's who want to keep the appearance of the game over the function of the game. Thing is, if it's their game game and they are the ones setting it up, you have to put up with their silliness. But that said, there are two options. You can conform and buy new expensive gear, or get around it with doing exactly as you've said, with taping springs onto the sides and stuff. I prefer the latter.



The purpose of the exclusionary type rules is typically to help keep the game in a medium to low volume capacity. Which is a major aspect of the appeal. But then there is a smaller, very vocal, minority that wants to take this low capacity and take it to the next level and mandate looks as a means to help immerse themselves in their GI-Joe fantasy even more. This all well and good when there is a large enough of a player base to allow for this kind of exclusion. But right now magfed is still getting its organized feet under it in most places and this kind of looks based exclusion is very detrimental in my opinion. Which is why, (here comes the thread based theme) we produce the Universal TIPX adapter. Because it's black and allows any hopper fed gun to feed Tipx roundballs. Is it just as easy to use the tubes you mentioned? Absolutely! But this is one way you can get around their deliberately exclusionary tactics and rock your hopper fed, now Magfed, VFT autococker in their games. Is it stupid? Yes. It is unnecessary? Yes. Is it their game? Unfortunately yes. So make due and find a work around until the community gets large enough to push these finge guys into their own sub-group. (And let's not get started on this mentality being fully supported/endorsed/pushed by the manufacturers who want to make sales. Which makes sense, but still sucks for situations like yours.)



Speaking of manufacturers wanting to push sales, buy this when they are back in stock!!!
