I want to say hi to all members of this interesting forum. I'm new to the community but I have a Q ready for you guys:

Does anyone know if it's possible to modify the fixed lever ( the one cast in one piece) on the MG68 Mp40 to a pull/twist working safety one or if a working one from the Marushin kit (for example) can replace the MGC one.

thanks guys for your time and kindness.

Short of sanding off the MGC finish and bluing my m1921 thompson, how might one remove an orange band placed on the cutts compensator by Japan airsoft? Black spray paint just doesn't seem to be n option.

I've been wondering which smg models can be safely converted to use blanks and if it's even practical. Considering the tremendous prices that Schoessler's wants for blank-firing submachine guns, I would think the interest would be there somewhere.
