Cosmitz Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 Hey people, After switching the guts and accesories from my old JG 416 to a VFC 416, i decided to turn the old JG into something else. After putting parts side-by-side to look for combinations i could attempt, i managed to get to this, which i quite like: Now, i see two problems in this project. The first one is the stabilization of the hop-up, a 2-pieace. I can attempt this by cutting the outer barrel after the catch on the 'delta ring'. The second one is the mounting of the silencer on what remains. I prefer not to permanently put it there, so cutting off the 14mm off the outer again and either welding it on, or using a 'sealing plastique' like Poxipol A+B solution to stick it on there. Both of these ideas would imply that i have to cut/weld/work with pot-metal, since i very much think that is the composition. I have no previous experience with doing work on it and i don't know if it'll crack, split or purely 'shatter'. Also, i could make my own piece out of aluminum at a workshop with both the stabilization and the 14mm but i want to do this as cheap as possibile. Link to post Share on other sites
Cosmitz Posted November 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 Here's an update on the project. Manufacturing process complete: Cut the hop 'stabilizing outer barrel section'. Effect. I cut down an older stock barrel i had around the house. Sawing off the 14mm at the other end of the outer barrel. 2/3rds there. The ansamble put together. Structural modification complete After strapping on a PEQ for support and a battery, no finishing touches done, and just scrambling it to be ready for tommorow's game, this is what i came up with.

bankz5152 Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 Nice build man, very cool I like it. Although is it possible to take off the buffer tube? Link to post Share on other sites
Cosmitz Posted November 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 It's part of the body but i might. It's going to be a permanent mod though, so i might do that last, to be sure i wont need it. Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 It's ugly as sin, but i doubt that changes the fact it's a beast of a sidearm - It ain't pretty, but it looks like a very handy little gun, and good job knocking it together so quick! Link to post Share on other sites
MadDog Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Rather than sticking the battery on top you could get a ready-mag and an empty magshell to store the battery. Link to post Share on other sites
Cosmitz Posted November 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 I have that in mind, for the moment i'm rather stuck on battery position and battery variations, probably a mini. It was all like "hey i finished this, it's pretty awesome.. now to just put in the batte--- oh.. snap" Link to post Share on other sites
bankz5152 Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Maybe you could make a fake LAM to mount undeneath the the suppressor bit, could work and add a diff look. Whats the ROF like? something like this should have some kind of insane ROF. I really like it, next job is to build a beastily holster! Link to post Share on other sites
Cosmitz Posted November 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Some 18ish. I figure that to be enough given our airsoft community rules dictated mid-caps max for usual 'weaponry'. Link to post Share on other sites
Overkill1369 aka Lawrence Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 You could use the Laylax EO-Tech replica. You can store a small lipo battery in it with some modifications... Link to post Share on other sites
