SPAS-12 stock

After fielding my TM SPAS-12 for a while I came to the conclusion that, while it's a sexy gun, it would look even sexier with it's corresponding folding stock. My dreams were pretty much slashed when in my online search I found that it had been discontinued and no longer available for purchase.

So I cried for a bit, then came here.

The chances of me getting the folding stock is almost impossible (Someone can correct me on this if they come across one that's actually available on a site somewhere), so I'm looking to more solutions to give it a buttstock. I've seen SPAS-12's with a full and solid stock, but I haven't seen those around.

What are my options? I'm willing to do a bit of surgery if I have to make a buttstock fit on it. (Tokyoseven's MP5 stock on an MP7 comes to mind)

You COULD buy a whole TM SPAS-12 and just get them you send you the stock and shell, or whatever other parts.

It's kinda expensive at $175, but the stock itself is $110 anyway.

How do you mean "Them"? I'd be willing to pay whatever cost for the folding stock if it was available somewhere.

Well is there a solution to perhaps getting a solid stock like an M3?

Find out how the rear grip is fastened. Compare to Super 90 fullsize. If it is close,it might work.

I think I may have very well purchased the LAST or one of the the last separate folding stocks avaliable. I got it almost 2 years ago from Redwolf when they briefly had them is stock. You really gotta have a hard of the SPAS 12 like I do to drop over $200 by the time it got here on a hunk of metal with a couple springs and a hinge. It was pretty much by chance that I got it too because after searching through every possible portal to get it, including straight from TM via contacts in Japan, I couldn't get one to turn up.

It's another idiotic move on TM's part to discontinue this thing. It's a very pop-culturey type gun used in movies non-stop, illegal in many countries and discontinued by Franchi as well I believe in real form. The market for such a gun is huge yet they make them so hard to come by and then stop making the stocks!! It's a bloody hunk of metal....how could it cost that much to produce?? Just as a wall-hanger, it has a market.

I'm sad to say, but you're prett much screwed. The only way you'll get one is persistance and chance. Remember that there are many many people even on this board thirsting for one too.

Try contacting Tirador perhaps? He can get stuff right from the factory for KSC because he's in Japan. Don't know about TM though, or if they have any kicking around. Might have some just on the market there in local stores, stock or entire gun.

how about modding a real steel one? I seen a couple real SPAS12 stocks kicking around online a few times.

Not sure what they would cost though...

The only thing thats stopping me from buying the SPAS-12 is the problem of the stock.

That's the only thing? I would think not being age verified is holding you back as well.

Unless of course you aren't Canadian.

I was born in Canada but I live in Turkey. I havent done the age verification thing cause I normally only post about my questions. If you have time, I'd suggest visiting airsoftturk.com. Im one of the more popular guys there.

Sorry, but you're gonna have to take my word on this one. My DOB is 6th of May, 1990. Was born in Montreal.

Lol, I don't care whether or not you get verified or not, especially if you live in Turkey.

Why should you get verified if you live and play in Turkey? You're 30 days older then I am... I'll be sure to check out your website, as its always interesting to see airsofters in other countries.

I'm surprised there hasn't been a clone of it yet. The M3's been cloned. So has the CAW M1014.
