A high-power LED (and not much else!) is used in this project to provide a muzzle-flash effect for an electric Airsoft gun. It’s an extremely simple mod that can add a dramatic effect to firing, especially in darkened or indoor areas.
This is an experimental project; it is very simple but like any project found around [...]
A Trigger Master is modded to fire only 30 rounds from a magazine before requiring a mag change to “reload”. With this mod, a couple highcaps can simulate an endless number of 30-round magazines! As an added feature, the gun will not fire unless a mag is inserted, and tactical reloads (reloading before [...]
This is just for fun - I simulated AEG Jamming by installing a switch and modifying the programming in a Trigger Master.
The Trigger Master is not just for giving your AEG 3-round bursts! It does a lot more than that under the hood, and it’s capable of even more. It’s a fully computer controlled electronic fire control system for your AEG which has capabilities miles beyond the dumb switch your gun comes with.
This tutorial [...]

The Trigger Master is the best way to get effective 3-round burst functionality from your AEG! And it’s capable of much, much more - fully computer controller fire control for your AEG is [...]
This simple DIY solution to illuminating tracer BBs works great and uses very few parts, but does require some careful cutting and fitting.
Everything is contained inside a locap magazine - no modifications are made to the gun whatsoever. The magazine can turn the tracer effect on or off at will, so you can [...]
Made entirely from parts found in the 1$ store, these use a very small toy-grade explosive to make a nice loud BANG!
This is a companion project to the Stealth-Action Motion Sensor. It’s Hollywood-style security systems.
With these, you can make your very own security system that gives intruders a sporting chance! It’s the laser-version of saying “But before I kill you, Mister Bond…”
Have you ever watched a spy film, or played a stealth-action video game (like Metal Gear Solid) where the hero deftly bypasses the high-tech alarm system? Well, this system is just like that - gives the intruder a sporting chance. (And it’s even shootable if you add some parts.)
The APS2 is a great bolt-action Airsoft rifle with 25 round magazines that fit in the forward part of the stock. I attempted to make a conversion for the APS2 to accept G3 magazines. This would allow the APS2 to essentially use a Hi-cap magazine (although it was still a bolt-action, of course).
The SG/5F gun is a custom-made Gas-blowback assault rifle.
It doesn’t exist in real life, but at least it’s made completely from H&K Parts.
I read about converting a regular gas valve into a hiflow valve on a discussion board and decided to try it out.
All you need is a normal valve (such as from an unmodified magazine) and a file.
This little beastie is one step closer to a robotic Airsoft player. It’s an automated gun turret.I made it mostly because I could, but also for use in CQBs (indoors would be best) where it could be placed on guard around corners, etc. It could also be used as a booby trap. Since [...]
This is a precision battery discharger for 8.4V 7-cell Ni-Cad or Ni-MH batteries. I made a cheap, reliable discharger circuit with an easy visual indication of the battery’s state (discharging or discharged) with less than 10$ of parts. Most parts can be found around the house or taken from broken electronic equipment - or at [...]
This project details how to make a momentary on/delay switch for anti-fog mask fans.
This simple circuit provides a little more control over the fan you use in your Airsoft or Paintball mask. Most fans provide a switch to turn the fan on or off. This little circuit will keep the fan on as long as [...]
This is a prototype of a mechanical/electronic trigger system for a BB Trap. The trap fires a Mosquito Molds 165 BB Shower grenade shell at anyone that wanders into its field of view.
It’s a little ugly, being a prototype, but’s it’s more solid than it looks.
Mini airsoft guns are the cute and light versions of their more expensive counterparts.
They can be handy for fiddling with, and I was interested in seeing just how much tampering I could do to a mini MP5 and whether the performance could be enhanced usefully at all. I wound up fitting extra batteries, an [...]
This project is a high-precision Airsoft Rate of Fire meter.This is a proof-of-concept that shows that a few dollars’ worth of simple components can be used to accurately detect the firing of a BB. That event can then be fed into a counter over a specific period of time to result in an accurate [...]
This is about as simple as it gets. I made a cheap, reasonably accurate laser sight for my Glock out of a few spare parts and a spare scope ring.
You can probably use the same concept for other guns and other homemade accessories.
