Here is what I want to do. I have a PRK legal FAB-10. Yeah I know it isn't a real AR-15, but when you live in enemy territory, you do what you have to do. The problem with my PRK legal FAB-10 is that it just doesn't look right.
Think of any magazine fed rifle. For example: my M1A. When showing off this gun, it just doesn't look right unless there is a 20 round magazine in the gun. Same goes for an AK-47, FAL, or AR-15. They just don't look right unless they have a magazine coming out of the bottom.
With that in mind, I want to attach a dummy 20 round magazine to the bottom of my FAB-10. The problem is I can't just go out and buy a 20 round magazine here in the PRK because it has been proven in court that any magazine with higher than 10 round capacity is inherently evil and these magazines have no choice but to cause mayhem and destruction.
So is there any of you out in free territory that would be willing to pick me up a good looking 20 round magazine? I will send you the money for it. Then I want you to take that 20 round magazine and take out the spring and follower, then cut off the top inch or so of the magazine. Then I will pay you to ship it out to me in the PRK. Legally I don't see why you can't send a non functioning steel body to the PRK. Once you chop off the top inch of it, I don't see how I am going to be able to re-modify it to make it work. And if I do, that would be on me. Plus, who would be stupid enough to cut up a good working 20 round magazine just to send it across the border and then make it a 15 rounder? I can just go to Neveda and buy real magazines if I wanted to do something illegal.
Next comes the part that might be hard for me. I will need to find a way to attach it to the sealed off magwell of my FAB-10. I am not really a machinist, so any and all suggestions would be great. I would think the easiest way might be to drill a hole in the bottom of my FAB-10 and thread it. Then I could attach a metal plate to the inside of the magazine body. Take off the bottom of the magazine and stick a screw driver down in there and screw the magazine on to the reciever. Then replace the bottom of the magazine and there you go. Then if I want to remove the magazine, I reverse the process and then find a short screw to screw back into the mag well to keep dirt and gunk out. If I really wanted to secure it on there well, I might put two scresw in to keep the magazine from rotating out of line.
I would appreciate any and all help you guys could give me on this project. That would be awesome to see the THR guys make something like this happen.
Here are a few pictures of my nuetered beast so you get an idea of what we are dealing with.
