I've used airsoft for years to maintain skills between range visits and grabbed a SIG Air Proforce M18 (green gas) last week to compliment my 9mm version. Nice reproduction but apparently very fragile.

Dropped the only included magazine onto a hard floor and the feed lips shattered. Inquired with SIG but a replacement part and "We don't sell parts for these but you can buy a new magazine for forty bucks" was the answer.

Enough background: Anyone know who manufactures these so I can find replacement parts? Web search has turned up some possible parts sources in Hong Kong and ROC but nothing stateside.

Not parts but Sig sells it on Amazon for $27 each, at least it's not $40

Thanks! Will order a magazine from Amazon while I'm waiting for parts. Will be here tomorrow. No shipping charge like SIG wanted.

I've ordered some magazine lips from Red Wolf in Hong Kong that look correct. Will see. They have HK and US telephones but I think everything ships from HK.

Digging deeper I think these airsoft pistols are made by VFC in Taiwan. If the Red Wolf furnished parts work I'll be able to stop looking and do some backyard holster work before going to the range and sending more expensive projectiles down range.

Happy to report I've secured replacement magazine feed lips for my SIG Proforce M18 GBB airsoft training pistol.

As hoped Redwolf Airsoft Specialists in Hong Kong had the parts. Bought three (3) just in case for $17.63 including air mail. Nine days after my order was placed on their website they were in my mailbox. Exact replacements. Murphy's law of available parts clearly indicates I'll never need the others.

For those reading along the part is Sig/Sauer magazine lip part # 01-1, 01-2. Fits the Proforce M17 and M18. Gas or CO2 magazines.

Happy training,
