Update, front end goodness!

ancorp · October 26th, 2007, 10:57

Excellent!

Styrak · October 26th, 2007, 12:14

I have a question/poll for people who know more about flashhiders than I. There are two flashhiders I'm looking at getting that are the exact same style. Should I get the aluminum one or the steel one? Which would be better for durability/scratching? I would assume the steel one, but fire away!

TokyoSeven · October 26th, 2007, 19:10

I guess its all dependant on how much you wanna spend. Id go steel just cause.

Styrak · October 26th, 2007, 19:49

Well the steel one is only a few dollars more. Maybe I'll get that one.

LeGROS · October 26th, 2007, 22:25

DOnt mix alu with steel... you will have an alu comtamination... so if few start with one stay with it!

Vince · October 26th, 2007, 22:44

This is not like if it was some mechanism with moving parts... Just screw that flash hider and forget about it. The only thing I could think of would be stripped threads on the outer barrels.

And nice project Styrak!

The M4 now has a friend....

Updated with complete gun. Albeit non-functional.

Moderate · November 26th, 2007, 02:12

Awesome job Styrak!

Styrak · December 2nd, 2007, 01:51

Updated, gun works now.

There's a question on my first post at the last update, maybe some of you can answer it.

I've got a question for all of ya. Would you buy this gun? I'm not sure I want to sell it, because I built it and it's my "child" now I guess, but I want to ask just for kicks.

I sold mine cause it was hard on the back packing that thing up all day, dunno if yours is metal body and all but after you put the red dot, battery, bunch of low caps you can't really be a ninja on the field.

It's not that bad. With a sling it would be easy. My AUG HBAR is fairly hefty, and I was fine with that with a 3 point sling.

looks great i think you should find a railed upper fore-end for the added bad assness

TokyoSeven · December 2nd, 2007, 13:51

Did you get the battery to work the way I described?
If not, you could always get a RIS grip and slap a battery peq on it.
