Re: Spyder delema

pretty good start, the handguard could use a little more detail, but good nontheless, but the stock isn't doing it for me.

Re: Spyder delema

Not bad so far. As stated before, the stock still needs some fine-tuning. Have you got a pic with the air line/x-chamber thingy on there? IMO, that could probably replace the mag for the final look. It's not as close to the trigger guard like the real-steel, but it still works, I think.

Re: Spyder delema

not sure what you mean by the "body". as for the mag, I wonder if there's a way to mod an X7 or A5 UMP mag to fit... you could toss the braided air line and run Macro through the mag.

Definitely try that, either an airsoft mag (not the plastic ones though, metal would be better) or the X7 M5 Magazine (Straight)X7 M5 Magazine (Straight)|Tippman X-7|Upgrades and Spares|Paintball Store

As for the body, do you have a metal shop or take a metal shop course in school? I am too old for school now, but I have often thought of approaching one of the local high schools and seeing if I could find a kid that has free time and is taking metal shop course to do some mod work for me. Never hurts to check it out I figure.

I do like what you are attempting and I give you props for trying it! Keep at it,with so many scenarios centered around WW2, that gun would certainly find a place on the battlefield.
