The ordering page for the "VSS to MP7 Magazine Adapter" claims that it is compatible with the following VSS Vintorez airsoft electronic guns (AEG):
We have the Echo1 Red Star IGOR AEG, therefore, we tested the Airsoft3D VSS to MP7 Magazine Adapter with this AEG. You can see the magazine adapter installed into the AEG in the photo below.
The ordering page for the "VSS to MP7 Magazine Adapter" claims that the following airsoft magazines are compatible with the magazine adapter:
We have the first two MP7 magazines on that list. So we tested the magazine adapter with those two magazines. The following photo shows the MP7 magazine inserted into the magazine adapter. These photos are for illustration only. You should not insert the MP7 magazine into the magazine adapter without installing the magazine adapter into the gun first, because if there are BB's in the MP7 magazine, they will shoot out.
The following photo is a top view of the magazine adapter with the MP7 magazine installed.
Insertion of the magazine involves pushing the release latch forward with the MP7 magazine, then pushing the MP7 magazine straight up. Once we have gotten the hang of it, it's pretty easy to do.
We ordered the white plastic version of the "VSS to MP7 Magazine Adapter" (see photo below). We also ordered it with a raw, unpolished surface. The idea is that we will paint it ourselves to match our Echo1 Red Star IGOR. You can order this mount adapter in different colors with different material.
The VSS to MP7 Magazine Adapter is extremely strong and rigid. The magazine release latch is slightly flexible and bendable for the purpose of retaining the MP7 magazine.
The raw white plastic texture feels like the same texture on a sugar cube, except it is extremely hard and doesn't crumble like a sugar cube. We have used our fingernails on it, it acts very similarly to plastic.
We wanted to paint the adapter black to match our Echo1 Red Star IGOR. We had some flat black paint. Having experience painting the other white, raw plastic items that we ordered from Airsoft3D before, we knew it will work out just fine. Photo below shows the adapter painted black.
Once the adapter is painted black, you can hardly tell that it's installed into the Echo1 Red Star IGOR AEG (see photo below).
The following photo shows the MP7 magazine in the VSS from a further distance.
