badkarma1354 Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 My main question about this project is if I can get a g3 stock to fit on the gun. I would assume it wouldn't, but I have seen some pictures of the CA33e with a different stock. I was also wondering what sight rails work and what ones aren't worth my time or money. I would also appreciate any links to replica harris bipods that work well. Any other advice would be great. Link to post Share on other sites
Maple-Leaf Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 I once contemplated this too. Basically, a G3 SG/1 stock will not fit a CA33 body. For one thing, the G3 stock has 2 pin holes, the CA33 stock has 1. The G3 bipod will fit the CA33 front end though. Easiest thing would be to just get the G3 bipod and the stock-comb from an SG/1 shoulder stock - then add a replica HK quick-detach claw mount and a scope and Robert is your father's brother.

Sniper Mania 345 Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 Actually all you have to do is put the G3SG-1 stock on the the CA33 endcap. Link to post Share on other sites

badkarma1354 Posted October 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 What would be involved in switching the endcaps on a stock? I am fairly tool savy, I just don't want to be grinding and cutting a stock. Link to post Share on other sites
Kosac Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 I have a CA33SG1 i have a G3SG1 bipod that fits easily and swapped the standard butcap on the stock with an extended G3SG1 butcap. I then added a TM low profile G3 mount and scope. IF you want some pics of it drop me a PM and i will try and send you some Link to post Share on other sites

I am fairly tool savy, I just don't want to be grinding and cutting a stock. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Just remove the sg-1 stockfrom the G3 endcap and put the sg-1 stock on the ca33 endcap,and also the stocks should pop right off the endcap.

badkarma1354 Posted October 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2005 Thank you very much for your help. I was also wondering if anyone can tell me why the CA SG1 stock is so much cheaper than the other stocks. Link to post Share on other sites
Phoenix Posted October 11, 2005 Report Share Posted October 11, 2005 I've tried that and I couldnt swap them. All you really need to do is put the cheekrest on the HK33 stock. Bam, done. As for the bipod, it may require a bit of work. The scope mount may also need some work. Link to post Share on other sites

michael_collins Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Surely that's easier said than done... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Nope its easier done than said actually. Broke my original stock and fitted the endcap off the CA33E to the G3/SG1 stock with ease. Just remove and switch endcaps, rewire the stock and your good to go. Link to post Share on other sites
