TM Spec G36c ORIGINAL Magwell

Hello, I have a simple and straightforward question. Does someone here know where to get an original, TM spec magwell for a G36 AEG?

*** I do NOT want a magwell CONVERSION for M4 I want a magwell for G36 mags ***

The reason I ask is: I may want to upgrade my AEG in the future, which is a JG G36c, and the only piece that is NOT TM spec is the magwell and hop-up unit. That means, if I want to change the hop-up unit for an aftermarket one, should I choose to do so, it will not fit with the existing magwell. I'll try to explain the differences with some pictures:

Here is a normal TM G36 magwell



And here is the one that came with the JG rifle



I remember reading somewhere that this caused the hop-up unit to be incompatible, but I also read that it was not bad at all, so I will more than likely keep it. However, I love having more than one choice, and would like to know where to find such a magwell should I choose to change the hop-up unit.

I tried to search a little but all that google found, was the damn M4 conversion.

Thanks.

Yeah, I’m looking for a backup one myself.

I’ve recently acquired an MTC3, which by default has the G36/M4 converter installed. I’d like to use my existing G36 mags; while I can swap in the magwell from my busted/fixer project MG36… but in order to do so I’d have to chop the top feeding tube… and I ain’t doing that until I get a backup magwell.

Just order an aftermarket G36 hop-up chamber and use your non-chopped magwell.
If you really want to still run STANAG, then order the magwell adapter made for the TM.

On a side note, if you want to change the magwell only to change the hop-up, don't. It works perfectly fine that way.

ARES and CA also use the "standard" marui hop-up, so you can get replacement parts for theses and it should fit.

If you need to chop the top feeding tube from the magwell, that means your magwell is already TM specs. My problem is that my magwell is NOT TM spec.

Unless I understood wrong.

Yeah I might try parting out the hopup from the MG36 to test it out, then get an aftermarket part if everything’s smooth.

Giving it some further thought, I’m going to try running M4 mags this season, but as K3xV said I’d like to keep my options open.

If we were closer I’d suggest seeing how well each other’s magwells fit (no homo). I’ll take a photo of what came with my Echo 1.

Will a little more luck with the Google, I found two places that sell the magwell, but they are either out of stock, or I never heard about the retailer.

AirsoftGI : http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_inf...oducts_id=2619
AirsoftSquadron : http://www.airsoftsquadron.com/g36-r...-mag-we36.html

Anyone heard of the second seller?
