PianoBlack Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 FarEast- I checked out the Magpul website and couldn't find their airsoft buffer tube. They do have a buffer tube in the CTR Accessories portion of their website, but it looks like the real steel one to me. Any pointers? Cheers, Batou. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Magpul do not advertise Airsoft anywhere on their website. I think it's their way of selling their products to the airsoft world before any of the other airsoft manufacturers do it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jagfish Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 The Airsoft MIAD is not a 1:1 replica of the real MIAD. Its thicker to accomodate the large AEG motor. People have had to dremel away quite a bit of material to get a real miad to fit a ptw so im fairly confident that trying to adapt a RS MIAD to a regular airsoft gun would be nigh impossible. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Does anyone know if this Airsoft version MIAD fits the Systema PTW (without extensive modification)?

Sale Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 AEG grips do not fit the PTW. I've heard that some people have fitted the actual MIAD grips to PTWs. -Sale Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FarEast Posted October 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Also, to add on to what uscmCorps has said, it also depends on the base colour of the item, the PTS parts were originaly a light tan colour, before the hydrographic film was applied, while the CASV was black. as you can see there is colour variations betweeen the PTS, DyTac and the Vltor parts, mainly due to the base colour.

48thRonin Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Heres mine with the Magpul CTR and Lakota bodywork: I binned the Magpul MIAD as no matter what I did (and I'm no stranger to engineering work) I couldn't get it to sound right. I also found the angle and width of the grip not to my taste. The thread was also ridiculously loose. The CTR on the other hand is a fantastic bit of kit. Even if it really is a complicated solution to a problem that doesn't really exist, it still looks sweet. Also good to remember that the Magpul hydro coating and Lakota coating are NOT the same and have different shades. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> yes your right, this does look sweet! How long does this take, as sending your M4 out to this states is gonna take a while! Also what price are you looking at?? regards R Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No, magpul does not advertise their airsoft products on their site because of the widespread hatred and ignorance surrounding airsoft in real steel circles. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
