I'm pretty new to modelguns and the only one I have is the Tanaka Glock 18 which uses 5mm caps... Anyway, I'm in the US and I can't find anyone who is willing to ship them from Japan.. Just need to know if there's anyway I can make them myself?

Welcome to the forum! Congratulations on scoring a nicely detailed model. I really like the Tanaka Glocks.
Getting caps is a bit problematic now as shipping restrictions have tightened up significantly. I did find some 7mm caps on ebay a while back.
The 7mm caps may be easier to come by than 5mm.
Good news is that you may be able to use the 7mm caps in your model if you change detos and cartridges. I've run the KSC or MGC 7mm cap cartridges in a Tanaka Glock before.
