Handsome Pete Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 I'm looking into a project of fitting a battery into the stock tube if my CA M15a4 carbine. I have a RIS forgrip and detest PEQ's and crane stocks. The other option is having a stock pouch on the side but this would get in the way when changing shooting hands etc. So the idea would be to drill a hole through the bottom back of the reciever (just under where the stock tube meets the body). Wiring would fit through then with another hole in the begining of the stock tube drag the wiring through and connect up with a battery. I think stick batteries ae too long to fit in the stock tube unless they were modded some how. And a 9v might be a bit of a squeeze. Any ideas? Is this insane? Any comments nd advice be much appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites
Windibob Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 I'm sorry that I can't be more help than this, but I can offer you good news. It CAN be done, I've seen it. My airsoft gunsmith did a cstom job on his M4 PTW so that like you, he didn't have to use a battery box, or a crane stock. As it happens, I kinda like the crane stock, so I didn't pay too much attention. But it does exist, and can be replicated. Link to post Share on other sites
Ledpocket Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 You can come close with LIPO cells: http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/inde...133106&st=0 Link to post Share on other sites
srpg Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 with 11.1v lipos by firefox or element. they will stick out of the standard stock tube a a bit though, so you can get a buttpad or just extend your stock to hid it. Also G&P now market a 6 position stock tube for lipos where theres more space so the entire lipo can be stored in the tube. As for the wire set up, just use the same method that you described above (which is the same as how crane battery stock wires are setup) ca m15 5 position stock+fire fox lipo a&k 6 position stock Link to post Share on other sites

srpg Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 the butt pads are made by promag industries for real steel ar15s. They were cheaper for me than buying guarder or acm. Got them off of midwayusa.com, ebay will have them too. Link to post Share on other sites

broken gun Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 oh i apologize that. i didnt read the thread. ive seen someone on ASR do a mod where they installed a mini battery in the stock tube, but the result was a fixed that looked like a ordinary folding stock.

IBICO Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 my friend here in Tromsø have done this. First rewiring with better wiring and used 7.4v li-ion battery. it is a bit over 1j full auto. the stock could be used as normal and no visible outside Link to post Share on other sites
