I upgraded and customized the VFC M249 (Minimi), which was the world's first to use gas as a power source, and a G&P electric gun.
For the VFC M249, only the exterior was customized, including the installation of a G&P hand guard and the replacement of the plastic dummy cart with a metal one. Most of the VFC M249's housing is made of aluminum, but the parts that swing the dummy cart are made of iron, so I confirmed that there would be no damage even if a brass dummy cart was attached. The best hole to drill in the dummy cart is 4mm to 5mm in diameter. As a result of focusing on ease of installation, I finally adopted a diameter of 5mm.
Regarding the G&P M249, I have upgraded most of it, from various power parts to wiring and exterior parts. Among other things, I changed the exterior version to Mk3 type and made the feed cover latch myself from iron material. Also, with the original product, we have to remove the fixing screw to change the barrel, but I have changed it so that we can just use the release lever. The stock is a Mk48 type with small modifications and installed, and the outer barrel is slightly longer for aesthetics and balance. The firing mechanism is Tokyo Marui's high cycle specification, linking the bullet feeding timing and trigger, and modularizing the cable. I am also reviewing the layout of the ammo box and am considering a more efficient bullet tray. At the moment, I am making a prototype out of cardboard and testing it, and the final shape will be changed to acrylic board.
