Not every support weapon fits a fixed configuration. If you're starting with an M240, Mk.43/M60, PKM/PKP, or another platform that needs more than a list of parts, tell us what you're working with and what you need it to do. We'll review the project, help sort out the right configuration, and treat the gun as one complete system.

View builds →The Process
How a Custom Build Starts
We need enough information to understand the platform and your actual goal before recommending parts or quoting the job.
We Check the Build
We'll review fitment, parts availability, AEG/HPA options, feeding, and whether the goal makes sense for the platform.
Confirm the Configuration
We'll work through scope, pricing, shipping, and the next steps with you before anything moves forward.
Built as a Complete System
Once approved, the platform is assembled, tuned, and tested in-house. Build and tuning information are included.
Custom Platforms
What We Can Build Around
These platforms are handled individually because the correct configuration depends heavily on the base gun, intended role, and customer's requirements.
M240
Weight reduction, external configuration, AEG/HPA setup, feed systems, and Bull Craft components selected around the role you need it to fill.
Start an M240 request →MK.43 / M60
Internal performance, handling, feeding, and external changes planned together instead of installed as unrelated upgrades.
Start an MK.43 / M60 request →PKM / PKP
Weight and balance, feed reliability, HPA conversion, and Bull Craft components brought together around the customer's intended use.
Start a PKM / PKP request →Other Platforms
Have something else in mind? Send the exact manufacturer, model, and goal. We'll tell you whether the project makes sense before you spend money.

What to Have Ready
You don't need every answer figured out. These details simply give us a useful place to start.
- The exact platform and manufacturer, if known
- Whether you already own the donor platform
- Your field's energy limit and preferred BB weight
- Whether you prefer AEG, HPA, or need guidance
- The main problem you want the build to solve
- Your working budget and any real deadline or event

Common Questions
Before We Get Started
A custom request starts a conversation. It doesn't lock you into a configuration or create a charge.
Do I need to already own the platform?
Not always. Some projects can begin with a platform sourced by Bull Craft, while others are best handled as customer-supplied builds. Select your starting point in the form and we'll confirm what's practical.
Can you build both AEG and HPA platforms?
Yes. The right power system depends on the platform, intended use, performance target, and budget. If you're open to either, we'll help sort out the tradeoffs.
Can the build be tuned to my field limit?
We can build toward a requested energy limit and BB weight. The final setup depends on the platform, barrel, engine or internal parts, and the rules where you intend to use it.
Can I send photos with the request?
The initial form doesn't accept attachments. Once we've reviewed the request, we may ask for photos of the base gun or specific areas that affect fitment and configuration.
Is the form a final quote?
No. The form gives us the information needed to review the project. Configuration, pricing, shipping, and the next steps are confirmed directly with you before the build moves forward.
