Very Nice!

Well while we are on the topic of refrencing mods to the M4, can anyone name me the modifacation that makes it so that an M4 can take a G3 magazine?

Cassius · January 8th, 2008, 19:58

Isn't that an HK417?

You don't. You take the hundreds of dollars you would spend on the conversion and buy a G3. But that's just personal opinion. Take it or leave it.

There are only 2 magazine conversions that I ever see myself purchasing. ONe being the G36 magwell bit that allows it to take M16/M4 mags, purely from the standpoint that I'm already set up for and with M16/M4 mags.

The second conversion being the Uzi magazine adaptor for the M16/M4. Just because i think it kinda looks cool in an M733.

ThunderCactus · January 8th, 2008, 20:22

its called an SR-25 lol
Theres only one HK417 prototype that uses G3 mags and they scrubbed it for the new plastic mags, from what little I recall I believe the magazine didn't have the following pin to make the bolt lock back when the last shot was fired.
It's called the M635 lol

TokyoSeven · January 8th, 2008, 20:26

Alright I was just curious, I appears to exist in the real steel world as seen on this modded hk416. Its like a psg and an hk416 had sex and this was the baby!

Cassius · January 8th, 2008, 20:30

Tokyo, that's the first prototype of the HK417, next up came the plastic mags like I just showed you.

Nope. See the two little nubs that are about halfway up the magazine? Those contact the base of the hand grip of a good ol' Uzi submachine gun, or perhaps even an Uzi carbine.

Sorry I came off a bit rough.

Those appear to be SR25 or perhaps even M14 magazines if I'm not mistaken. Anyone who can, please correct me on that. I believe the G3 magazines have 3 circular nubs, not unlike in function to the ones on the Uzi mags I pointed out earlier

ThunderCactus · January 8th, 2008, 20:32

"The only flaw in this magazine is the lack of a hold-open mechanism. Alas, it is probably not to be." So that's why they're not using G3 mags

Yes the G3 mags do have the nubs but you cant see them as they inside the mag well

Cassius · January 8th, 2008, 20:38

Yeah, that's not an SR-25 at all. SR-25 is by KAC and this is an HK 417 rifle. It's their 416 but chambered in 7.62 and now with plastic mags.

I realize that. I was referring to the magazine alone, and it's appearance to SR-25 magazines, as opposed to G3 magazines.

A note on the SR47, yeah, I heard it didn't quite live up to expectations either.
On the same front though (and in my opinion, WAAAY more supah-awesome-fun-time), the Hydra:

Interchangable magwells! 7 different calibers! ooooh! aaah!

I've painted it in a desert scheme but I think it looks better in black.
