Replying to the earlier comments of yours lol
Thanks for the pics :) And I guess I'll have to edit my rifle to actually have a solid lever and moving trigger guard. Is the rest of it alright though?
I think the only major issue is I can't see the helical mag variant working; the mag tube really isn't thick enough, and I can't see how you'd be able to wind the drive member backwards using just a loading gate.
Aw dang, I really wasn't sure how helicals work to begin with >.> So you have to actually wind the thing back? ... Could that endcap I have on it twist like a corkscrew inside to do that?

I only have a few qualms lol I'm not sure which part is the pump, and if there's enough room to pump it o.0 But that could just be me not knowing much about pump actions lol.
Ok looking at it disassembled helped lol, but I don't understand how you pump it then. Unless the pump itself goes over that RIS piece you have behind it...
As for the rifle the only thing is the gas tube you used is meant for internal use only, it's too thin and flimsy to be outside of a housing of some kind. That's more technical critiquing though. And just to clarify, you do know the bolt is going to travel into the stock during use right? Not a problem, just can't switch out or fold the stock then (this way other people know as well :) ) OH and there's no bolt spring ;) But that's just me nitpicking lol
Yes, the pump does go over the RIS. It's also no longer a RIS, just a sort of secondary handguard.
Also, the stock's not meant to fold or anything, and you can just swap it out with another stock with the same bolt hole.
I couldn't be stuffed to make a spring, and I don't think they look that good anyway. Better to just handwave it.
Alrighty, I guessed right ^.^
And as for the other more nitpicky stuff it's cool, I was more just pointing them out before someone else tried to jump on you lol

Nothing really impressive, but it was still entertaining to me.
The pistol grip's behind the receiver, so you'll need to bring it up a few layers. The red dot's not meant to be mounted like that - it's designed for the special mount for the ACOG. There's other problems too, like the stock and the top rail. Keep improving your designs, and show us what you can do.

Congrats on the Gonzo.
Gonzo?

Gone Gonzo. It's the title you get once you hit 1000 posts. Your arctic AR pistol was your 1000th.

I got bored, and wanted to make a better shotgun than I made last time.


Loosely based on the collapsible stocked Remington 870, using my Chinese Mossberg 500 airsoft as a reference. It's hard to make shotguns without proper receiver. They come out looking horrendously complicated.

That's actually pretty sweet lookin. The only thing I'd do is add a little blending to mold the AK upper in the receiver and the clip thing at the way front I'd blend into itself a little. And I'm guessing you had a small AK bolt hidden in the grip/shell tube. I don't think it should be visible ;)

How do you do the blending?

And the AK bolt piece is purposeful, but now that I'm looking at it, incorrect. I'll find a piece that fits better. Hooray for figuring out the 'export' feature! =D

I'd have to say, having thought about it; I really can't see the point of having that much ammunition in a manually-operated repeater you can top up between shots; most likely, the result would be an enormously front-heavy gun and forgetting how many rounds you had left.

Here's a link to my blending tutorial. http://lord-malachi.deviantart.com/art/Tutorials-159593075
And there are other ways to do it, I just find this to be the easiest.

So using that grip piece in front should work, especially if I say it has a flip out handle built into it. And it is rather thin, I know that much, I designed it wider but the white shapes used in the foregip area prevented me from having it any wider. As for why? It was a Steampunk enduced idea. I suppose while you could just reload as you shoot that's alot of spare ammo you have to carry. This way it's all convenient. But yea it would be really heavy... You'll need a good sling lol Tho I think the design could be fairly easily modified to act as a semi auto and still use the lever as the charging handle. Which would fit it in a timeline as a steampunk-esq prototype in progress. As far as the helical mag goes.

Bloody hell, this thread refuses to die.

Heres an SMG I made fairly recently.


And an Anti-material rifle.

Thanks for the blending help!

Believe it or not, this IS the same Shotgun as above, but with close to eight more hours of... Uhm, Nine more hours of work put into it.



With Full stock (Much like a Benelli M1 Super 90), and a wire-frame folding stock, which folds to the LEFT side of the weapon, not the right so it CAN be fired with stock folded.

The Slide is in the full-forward position on in the top picture (Folding stock). I managed to move it forward somehow while swapping stocks.

Thoughts? Critiques?

Anyone else ever put 3+ hours of work without saving into one of these and hit CTRL+R? 'Cause I did that. And it sucked.


EDIT: FINISHED THE BLOODY THING.


Sights are scratch built (based on the M500 Airsoft that's next to me), body is a LOT of things, but the top is an AK47 upper with an MP5K trigger group. Feed port was created with an upsidedown FN2000 scope cover.

Thoughts and help greatly appreciated, but I'm seriously not changing anything else on this. 15 hours of my life is MORE than enough.


EDIT: Updated!

Fixed the front sight (it was too big), and fixed the placement of the barrel. (it was too high). NOW it's finished.

I like the ergonomics of the foregrip. Looks very interesting.
One concern I have, however, is that the flashlight mount is meant to go on a rail facing you, like the one just above where you have it now. Other than that, not a bad design.

The internals are correct (and existant) for a change, but the gun is ugly as sin.
Um...Ejection port?

Well, I don't think there's anything stopping you putting a flashlight under the barrel other than ergo issues (pistol taclights are generally underbarrel), and you could use the front of your left index finger if the control's a button on the base with that setup.

I think a bigger problem is the location of the mag versus the location of the ejection port and the back of the gun; there's got to be some pretty funky mechanisms (and an S-bend magazine) inside that casing to get the ammo way over there, and that's without the problem of having to throw the bolt group out the back of the frame to strip rounds off the top of it.

Very sweet! And don't worry, the more you blend, the quicker it gets! ^.^ Great job on the sights too!

I'm assuming the lack of an ejection port means it fires caseless ammunition.
Even if you fire caseless you still need an unloading port in case of a jam or dud.

You know, I wish I had the patience or the skill for blending. I really do.

Kudos to the both of you for using it. By blending, Koeryn, you've created some shotguns that look better than what Skipper drew for the old version. That is some fine work, gentlemen.

I see nothing wrong with the flashlight, so your attachments are sorted out properly. Two things though; for one, I think that the foregrip should be at an angle, and for two, that is a machine pistol, not an SMG. The color works also, BTW.

Actually since it has a built in fore grip it is meant to be used with 2 hands. Thus it is an SMG, with a small magazine. Whereas a machine pistol is simply a pistol (1 hand) that fires in full auto (or burst)

Don't taze me bro!
