I was wondering what you would do to use any AEG magazine and attach it to a homemade gun?

It would be difficult to make a receiver for it that would function right.
You would have better luck making your own magazines.

One more question, would it be praticle to buy a broken gun and use the parts for that for the clip and reciever? I would connect on one side and then leave the other side open for a barrel extension.

it might be useful if you just want it from the body, you know buy one of those cheap guns that are $10, it can be used for the clip mechinism but then your not really making a gun you just modding it. i know from experience when you mod an airsoft gun it tends to break, FAST. im in the process of getting a gun right now but before you buy one see if your friends have broken ones
