You can't buy the PFC caps at a gunshop. You have to get them from overseas, and I only know of a few people who import them. This is who I get mine from.

Loading the brass shells needs a loading tool. Marushin, MGC, and some others make them, I think the MGC tool is slightly different than the others. I may have an extra one lying around, I will have to look.
A few links that may be handy.
