Printed off a tiny test batch of the AR15 Grip Adapter for AEG Lowers. Still messing with settings, but these came out very well. Just needs a little touching up and they should be ready to go.

Your requests have been heard, so I am printing off a small batch of Real AR-15 Grip Adapters and will soon take orders if all goes well. These 3D printed parts let you fit a real AR-15 grip to your AEG lower when using a PolarStar Fusion Engine and hopefully gearbox shells making use of the SMP, Jack, and other similar systems.

And heres a quick FAQ and things-to-know:

Q: Do I need to modify my FE/Gearbox shell?

A: Yes, and the modifications are not light. They are heavy, permanent modifications. You (or I) need to cut away at the lower part of the frame of the FE in order to make room for the adapter. My former personal FE is pictured as an example.

Q: Will it fit my VFC/G&P/TM/KWA/Krytac lower?

A: I have only tested the adapter to fit inside VFC and G&P lowers. The part was designed to fit VFC lowers. Since VFC is supposedly TM-spec, it would be logical to assume that my adapter would fit into all TM-spec bodies. However, I can only say for sure that it will fit inside VFC and G&P. I received a report from a trusted customer that it fit a King Arms body by filing .5mm off the side. I am not able to confirm the exact numbers because I was not the one to install it on a King Arms body.

Q: Is this adapter a drop-in install?

A: In order to get a nice fit in relation to the grip and the body, some bits of material from the adapter may need to be shaved/cut/ground off.

Q: Is the 3D printed part strong enough to handle abuse?

A: Yes. It was built with 100% infill (it is one solid piece of ABS). It was tested and abused on my own personal build and test builds, and the adapter has held up.

Q: Will this fit my airsoft gun with an air line going out under the stock?

A: It seems you would need to remove quite a bit of material off the part itself, so I cannot say for sure, especially as I have not tested it. Any testing of this is to be done at your own risk.

Q: Can I buy an adapter off you and do the job myself?

A: Sure. I will charge less, but installation is done at your own risk. You can send your lower in and I can do the install for you.

Q: Will you post this up on shapeways or any equivalent website?

A: It is an interesting option and may be explored, however, you have to consider that you would need to get a specific set of screw and nut that are used for this part.

Q: How much are they?

A: Each adapter is $25 shipped, with installation done at your own risk. If you elect to send your complete lower to me to have a grip installed, you will need to send the grip you intend to have installed, along with $50. This covers both the adapter and labor. You cover shipping costs both ways among other associated fees.

Things to know:

-I have not tested install on a lower with a gearbox body. I assume that it would work, but having not done it, I cannot confirm with certainty.

-The printed part may not be absolutely perfect. I only send out parts that I feel will be able to properly hold its own against the stresses that a grip faces during use and abuse.

Up for sale is my heavily modified FE. I am the original owner and did all the mods to this item.

This is a long post, so read it all if you're interested.

The Details:

-This FE has a Dual Reg Mod done to it. This means it has two air line inputs. One propels the BB, the other exclusively to the solenoids. One of the reasons for this is to run the solenoids at high PSI, while keeping the PSI to the BB low. There is a diagram in the album that shows how this was done.

-You will need to add a splitter to your tank with another regulator going to it. This is two use two different PSIs on this FE.

-The FE frame is modified to allow use of one of my 3D printed Silent Custom real AR15 grip adapters. This means that with little modification (drilling two holes inside a real AR grip, one for the screw, one for the other line) you can enjoy one of these on a VFC or G&P body.

-The screw for the adapter is included, just not pictured.

-The FE upper is Gen 3, the FE frame is Gen 2. FCU is Gen 2 (Not pictured).

-Nozzle is bored out to Red (iirc), poppet is stock.

-The trigger was sanded down so that it would have a natural colored "brushed" look.

-The trigger was modded with a set screw to decrease movement of the trigger when on "SAFE"

-The trigger board was modified so as to make the solenoid plugs "remote", to make room for the second air line fitting

-This FE was modified to accept use of KWA ERG magazines. Normal AEG magazines should also work just fine.

-The frame has a hole that was tapped for a small set screw so as to block the selector plate from going into "FULL". This is entirely up to you wether you want a set screw there or not.

-This FE will NOT come with a data cable.

-Comes with PolarStar's Ambi Selector Bar (Not pictured)

-Comes with a VFC "bolt catch" system. If you have a VFC body, this is always nice to have.

-Asking price is $280 SHIPPED.

-This item is sold AS-IS. No warranties, implied or not.

-My intention is to sell this to someone who has significant experience with HPA systems and understands the function of it enough to answer their own questions once received.

-I am not responsible if you or someone else breaks it somehow.

-If you want/need my dual reg system, just talk to me, we may work something out. I would need a replacement reg though, seeing as this is my only rig. Otherwise, the pictured tank/reg system is not included, and not for sale.

-Item is located in Orange County, CA.

-Item will be shipped within two business days, starting the day after payment is received in full AND cleared.

-PayPal only, or F2F.

-I will not hold items. I know sometimes people are waiting to get paid for something else, but the reality is that I've come across way too many flakes to count.

-By sending me payment you agree that you have read and accept all the terms above.

FAQs:

-Can I convert it back to normal function with one line?
You could, but you may find that it is much more effort than its worth.

-What is that hole in the middle of the frame?
That used to be where the normal body pin (the one that goes above the trigger) went. It was widened to accomodate a real anti-rotation pin.

-Can the grip mod work of a brand other than VFC or G&P?
Never tested it on any other brand than those two, so I can't say for sure.

-Why the low price?
I want to sell it to someone who won't put up a fuss with prices and I don't care about getting the maximum I can out of it.

So again, asking price is $280 shipped, sold to someone who knows their way around FEs and isn't scared of some mods.

I expect this MAC-10 conversion to be done around the 21st, so I will now be open for more conversions to begin around that time! Message me if interested. Labor is usually around the mid-300s, depends on the conversion.

Gonna start work on this little thing today. Someone finally stepped up and funded it!

After 8 years I suppose my passion for airsoft has come to an end. I didn't think it would happen, but it has. I've played three times in a whole year as of yesterday. I’ve tried to fight it these past few months, but I'm simply not in tune with the state of airsoft as a whole anymore. I made my airsoft mods and projects based off personal interest and with my interest in airsoft largely gone, my research and development in this game will drastically slow down, if not cease entirely.

Silent Custom will still exist. I’ll still be accepting commissions and continue work as scheduled, but don’t expect anything new, if at all, on the airsoft side of things (except for commissions, and *maybe* a couple of unannounced projects I've had in mind for a while now).

My passion for airsoft may be gone, but my passion for product development still burns strong and bright. It always has. Combine that with my newly-found interest for real guns and cool things are bound to happen.

I’ll be largely focusing on that now. Airsoft has its place (and always will), but I go where my interests lie, and that is with actual fi****ms.
