Maruzen APS type 96

broken_system · February 7th, 2008, 23:02

Anyone know of a good place where i can buy factory parts for this gun? Specifically im looking for everythign minus the barrel, and firing mechanism. So that would leave the stock, the cheek pieces on the stock and im assuming thats about it. I need this for a conversion idea. Any help is greatly appreciate.

get a cheap clone.... because I had a Maruzen one before.... almost impossible to get factory parts...

The Well clone is almost an exact copy....

The only thing to look at when deciding between Maruzen and the Well clone is the quality you want. The Maruzen will feel much more solid and stock last longer, but since BA's never stay stock going with a Well is not that bad an idea.

First Factory and PDI make lots of parts for the APS type 96 rifles. Check out their websites:

PDI: http://www.x-fire.org/type96/e.t96_main.html
First Factory: http://www.first-jp.com

Check out www.redwolfairsoft.com they usually have most things instock ((if they're still produced, which is the problem you're going to start running into custom building APS rifles now-a-days)).

n this case, it is just for a conversion...

no need the internals, so who care if it is crap or not...

Because the externals on the maruzen are better quality as well.

I went to a game like 3 weeks ago. One player fell on ice and His maruzen body broke near the Mag well. thrust me the gun almost cracked open in half.

Not much for Maruzen body strength.

He didn't fell hard on it, he loose foot, fell, drop his rifle. snaped it's broken.

it was only -2C

You fill the well's stock with foam, you've got a very solid gun.

I had a Maruzen one before.

The guy I got it from also snaped his rifle in 2 (he had 2 at the time, traded one for my P90)

If I get an other L96, it will be the Star AW-338 or a Well one.
