Made a custom Mauser K98 with some real german WWII parts.

 

Airsoft:
- PPS K98 (Tanaka clone)

Real WWII German parts:
- Stock with nazi markings
- Upper handguard
- Bayo Holder
- Upper ring
- Lower ring
- Sight hood.

 

I also sanded down that horrible black paint and gave it a custom blueing finnish.

 

Took me about two afternoons of drilling and dremling to get it to fit. Was a fun little project to add to my collection :)

I will also engrave more and correct markings in the future.

Wow that PPSH looks beautiful! Is it a real stock? Is it hard to fit with the engine?

Forgot to post this when I finished it. Technically it's not WW2, but I didn't see where else it would fit. This is a WE M712 carbine with the barrel significantly shortened, stock slightly shortened, a vintage Weaver K3 scope fitted, and the externals refinished. I also rebuilt the hop-up adjustment to use a grub screw rather than the original, finicky system.

This looks great! Was shortening the barrel a big challenge? (never really did something like that so)

Pretty easy, at least as far as the externals. I removed the front sight, cut it down with a hacksaw, cleaned up with a steel file, and epoxied the front sight back on. The inner barrel had to be cut down to all of 6" just to get the muzzle velocity below 400fps, and that was a bit more involved.

You may want to rotate that 90 degrees CCW for authenticity, reversing the turrets keeping ejection clear.

 

I might do that. Strictly speaking I'm pretty sure it would realistically work fine in its current configuration, with the turret acting as a deflector, but at the very least it will be easier to clear malfunctions and adjust the top with the scope a little more out of the way.
