So I just picked up a VM68 from Ecapnation (first I’ve ever had) and I’m wanting to put a 10-15 round spring feed perpendicular to the barrel (like a British “sten” gun or Japanese “type-100”)
I’m hoping to homebrew something akin to the current phantom “Pheed” or spring-loaded semi-auto STBB style pistols from the 2000’s.
The question I have is what kind of spring to use/ order? I know I need something pretty long, but with minimal force when compressed. I could probably go and do some book learning at the lyberry and figure it out, but I thought I’d reach out to the community for a role model:
“A good role model to help and go make things a lot smoother, so [hutbrews] can come and talk to [you] and instead of [making a 10-feed] six or seven times through denial and error, but then get it right the first time and have some good [spring 10-rd feeds] that would then make it more better than otherwise.”

Thanks fellas!
