getting there slowly slowly
This is everything layed up, including a proper mod not the plastic one which comes with it... very happy with how it all fits

It's getting there and I quite like it :)
I have been thinking of getting in some white Cerakote for Arctic camo jobs and if all else fails I can always do one of my rifles...

I've been wanting to make a 'stormtrooper' gun for a while now. I just can't decide which one to do as all of my 'practical' guns would be dirty within days and ruin the white finish

Not ruined, it would look used as it should be :)

Thanks chaps!
Yes I can't wait to get this one out and dirty, being a 'zombie' gun it needs a bit of roughing up!
I just did it with Krylon so it should wear quite nicely... much better than the nasty HTA finish it came with :)

Hello cheeky
ALL bolted together and a vortex 1-4 mounted on top
The rail isn't totally fixed yet as I need to fettle the barrel mount a bit more.
Also need to fit the extended mag release at some point
Might add a tiny bit of lead in the back end to balance it as well and definitely need to finesse the trigger

Actually got to shoot it today, its glorious although the 1-4x will take a bit of getting used to! But then this is a gun for steel not precise paperwork.
I got a couple of the 15rnd ruger mags and initially had a lot of issues with eley edge, they kept jamming before seating properly so the bolt didn't close the last 1/2" or so.
Switched out to some filthy greasy SK (literally sold in a bean can) and it loved it!
The older worn in 10rnd mag seemed to like any ammo through it.
Accuracy wise I was standing at 25 and shooting (very) quickly I could do about a 4" group (amazing) but I'll go back and try some real groups soon
