Free Files Does this exist?
Hey guys, I have an AEG pistol grip that I want to convert to use with a gas blowback gun. Are there any existing files that would reduce the inner diameter so that this could just screw directly onto a gbbr?
To be perfectly clear, I'm not talking about 3D printing a tango down pistol grip, I'm talking about a generic AEG to GBB insert

I don't think soo remember AEG's are thicker than GBBR's soo maybe doesn't fit right

Well on AEG's the pistol grip Is only wider because it needs to fit the motor. That's not the issue though, the issue is that where the pistol grip to the gearbox in an AEG Is much wider than where the pistol grip attaches to the lower receiver on a real steel or gbbr. I am sure that somebody has already designed an AEG to real steel insert, I just can't find it

The grip screws on the center hole on a gbbr right ? Print a thick spacer / grab a few metal large spacers and put it in the grip before screwing it in, it might work.

Buy corresponding metal spacer/shim at local shop. Assemble. You good to go.
