rizzini7 Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 no its becasue the selector leaver has snapped for the 2nd time and the first time i replaced it with a metal selector leaver but unfortunatly it snapped on the other side which was plastic. and i am unable to find a replacment part. i do like it full auto but i want to use it like the real deal, on semi as a marksman rifle. i have my SR16 for when i need fully auto. and i have my 1911 if i find myself n a spot of bother. Have you tried den trinity mate? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SniPeR-ESO Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Here's mine. What Sling is that, looking for one for mine. Do you have a link where you bought it from. Ok Heres mine just before I finish the Desert Cam on it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kliskey Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Seems to have a kind of "halo" glow to it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gunaholic336 Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 What Sling is that, looking for one for mine. Do you have a link where you bought it from. Looks like a Uncle Mikes leather sling you could buy from any sporting goods store in the US or cheaperthandirt.com not to sure where you can get them in the U.K. though.

gonzo1 Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Google up "1907 sling" and you'll find plenty of options. I got mine at Walmart, and the old adage of "you get what you pay for" definitely applies in this case. CheaperThanDirt has them, but I'm not sure where to recommend for the UK.

Carter Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 (edited) Am I worthy of the Brotherhood? Cyma M14 Eventually, I want to replace the bipod with a Harris, the scope mount with a King Arms, and make the wood stock more real looking (although it looks really nice in these pictures, I think) but for now everything works.

Me4noreason Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 (edited) G&G m14 with G&G R.A.S. NOTE: The scope isn't mounted properly. Its too low and far forward. I know that and am working on it. Edited July 2, 2008 by Me4noreason Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitedingo Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 My old Marui.... everything was original Marui except the heatshield. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Carter Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Oh my. How on earth did you get the "wood" looking so nice. Marui's M14s are plastic bodies, yes? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitedingo Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Oh my. How on earth did you get the "wood" looking so nice. Marui's M14s are plastic bodies, yes? Yup. All plastic! It's a quite heavily modified version of the Red Alliance "Improving The Look Of Your TM AK Furniture" Guide. Here I actually didn't like the way the stock "wood" looked, so I sprayed it all a flat, dull brown. Then using Burnt Umber, Black, and Dark Brown acrylic paints, I would paint, with a brush, the color I was using over one side of the stock. After letting it dry for a while, I would use a shop towel and smear it down, to simulate grain. The "hooking" of the grain you see was achieved by painting a line in the general shape that I wanted, then after drying a little, wiping it to create the "grain" I would then contrast a lighter or darker color on either side of it to give it greater realism. The black acted as "mineral deposits" in the grain, which, at least to me, made it look quite a bit better. After I had it looking the way I wanted it to, I used a flat clear coat, followed by a spray lacquer (to emulate the real finish on a new M14 stock), then I dulled it down on the wear points using steel wool and rough cloth.

Carter Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Awesome, thanks. When I have some time, I'll try that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

greg Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 If that didn't look like a prop from 'Cyborg II', it would be loverly. You don't actualy use it for skirmishing do you? Greg. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scooberoo Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 It's very heavy at that full setup (over 12 lbs). Without batts, bb's, sling, and accessories, it's at 9 lbs. There's really no gaming advantage with it. Since, it's my only gun, I have no choice but to haul it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

-Drake- Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 It looks seriously bulky tho. Personally i'd lean more for the VLTOR stock. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scooberoo Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 scoob: nice trijicon. like it? -joe The dot's glow isn't too bright. I have to use the polarizing filter to darken the lens to get more contrast. My replica KA aimpoint is brighter even on the lowest setting. I guess that's the difference with a scope using batteries and one that doesn't. Yeh Navymp. Someone's gotta make those Troys! It's been long overdue. The EBR's been around 2 years now.
