Hi everyone,

I've seen that you can mod a Dan Wesson .177 bb (4.5mm) to shoot .177 pellets through a rifled barrel.

I'll be trying the same thing, except that I'll be starting from a Dan Wesson 4" airsoft (6mm) version. The internals seem to be exactly the same as the .177 bb counterpart, except for the aluminium 6mm. barrel.

I have enough left over barrel from a modded Crosman 357 from an 8" to a 2.5" barrel to complete the DW conversion.

Now my two questions:

Are my assumption about the airsoft internals, including the valve body & pressure being the same as the 4.5 version correct?

Short of buying new 4.5mm bullets and modifying these to use, any idea about modifying the OVERSIZED 6mm bullets to carry the smaller diameter pellets?

Any and all help and comments are welcomed!
