The TM LCP/LCPII is one of the smallest GBB pistols in airsoft — a micro-compact that players running DMR or sniper builds favour as a holstered sidearm precisely because of its tiny footprint. The AirTac Shotgun Shell Adapter takes that concept and makes it a genuine HPA-fed workhorse: it acts as an extended grip baseplate, fitting to the existing LCP/LCPII magazine and routing HPA through the pistol while feeding from 30-round CYMA shotgun shells.
This adapter was specifically designed with the UK field environment in mind. Many UK sites do not permit HPA adapters that protrude laterally from the pistol — the extended baseplate profile of this adapter sits cleanly below the grip rather than extending outward, making it compatible with sites that enforce this rule. The low-profile design also makes it practical to holster in a standard compact pistol holster, which is important for a build that's being carried on a hip or thigh rig throughout a day of sniping.
All 30 rounds in a shell feed fully — zero BBs are dropped when the empty shell is ejected and replaced. CYMA shotgun shells are strongly recommended over TM shells; the CYMA shells have significantly stronger springs which feed more reliably through the adapter. A higher PSI and heavier BBs may be required to achieve higher joule values due to the LCP/LCPII's short barrel length.
Installation process
| Step | Detail |
|---|---|
| 1. Prepare magazine | You need a short LCP/LCPII gas magazine — the adapter fits onto this body |
| 2. Fit O-ring | Fit included O-ring to base of HPA adapter |
| 3. Remove baseplate | Remove baseplate from gas magazine shell |
| 4. Clamp adapter | Use a hand clamp to compress adapter onto magazine shell, aligning pins. Use included 3mm dowel pin for leverage |
| 5. Install block | Push included single-stack block into magazine, covering BB loading hole (can be glued to prevent loss) |
