my_plague_666 Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 ive been thinking of an easy mod to do to the mags/loading system to feed from the side. what you could do (might work might not) is put some sort of pin on the flat end of each mag, make a hole in the front of the mag holdy thing (dont know what you call it on a P90 XD) that the pin would slot into. ditch the bit at the top that holds the mag in place. and then (possibly with a bit of modding to the mag catch) you might be able to load by putting the front of the mag in first (from the side) and then sliding the rest in using the pin at the front as some sort of pivot. that probably wouldnt be that hard to do either and it would allow you to totally cover the mag area allowing you to put pretty much anything on there obviously youre not limited to G36 carry handles, they were just some that i thought might look ok. but this would allow you to nick an optic or rail system from almost anything Link to post Share on other sites
xDieter736x Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 I've been watching this creation come together for quite some time, and I finally think I should give some in put here. For the sight, just go with the red dot, and (sue me ) mount it scout style. Although you might have to hack off that nub on the top of the G36 sight mount, and you may lose QD capabilities, I think it might suit the rifle better. Ignore that I cut off the flash hider. Sure, it's boring and simple, but don't forget, this might save you time and hassle down the road. Oh, and put something between the pistol grip and the stock. It will look sooo much better!

my_plague_666 Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 i dont like that, althought he stock grip idea sounds interesting Link to post Share on other sites
Donut Posted March 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Yeah... I went a full circle with this... I need to finish this, now... MP5 sights? Yes? No? Maybe? my plague, I wanted to let the magazine slide in from the side, but the problem is that the P90 magazines aren't perfectly flat... and I can't figure out exactly how the mag catch really works, since the P90 body won't open Link to post Share on other sites
Curious Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 The P90 body is glued together, you need to pry it apart, and my, will your heart ache and stop and shudder whilst you are doing that Is that Mecanno? Dom Link to post Share on other sites
Philip Aram Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 I was thinking maybe you should make this gun look like the MR-C in Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter by connecting the handle with the stock, and then maybe putting a Eotech on it. http://www.ghostrecon.com/de/ghostrecon3/images/weapon1.jpg theres a pic of the MR-C I think it stands for Modular Rifle Caseless.

my_plague_666 Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 right, about the mag catch. i may be talking ######s here (as im judging from a well D90 XD), but i was just talking about sanding the mag catch waaaay down on the outside so that with a little bit of force the mag could slide over it fairly easily and it would stay there as the other side would remain pretty much unchanged. like i say, from looking at a D90 thats my theory, maybe you could buy one just to muck about with the mag system and other stuff before attacking the XM90 with any potentialy fatal (for the gun) ideas Link to post Share on other sites

Dom <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I know, it's a ****ing ***** to open... I had to open it when I cut the front grip off to see how the selector switch worked.... But now I can't open it again... as I've bondo'd the front and back. I don't know what that is, I just found it in my old toy box, figured it has to come in handy somehow... my plague, I'll see...

MDK_Marshal Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 with m expert opinion, I can say with 100% certainty that it is indeed meccanno. Link to post Share on other sites
Donut Posted March 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 The latest bondo job was a mixed result... the lower and handguards are perfect, the only thing left now is paint; while the upper was a disaster... Next month would be the 1 year anniversary since I had the idea. Though I can probably do it in 2 weeks on the second try... All the holes, gaps, and imperfections on the lower and handguard have mostly been fixed. Link to post Share on other sites
CeruleanSentinel Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 This is one inspiring project. Right now I am in the design phases of a project of my own. You are one brave soul indeed... Link to post Share on other sites
slyguyfry Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 I think you should add one of these: Nitro.Vo Rail Handguard for G36 and one of these Nitro.Vo Rail Handguard for P90 and some nice rail covers humn mabey a shrubbery or more importantly a bottle opener and a p38 but thats just my 2 cents Link to post Share on other sites
mililanishooter Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 i think donut wants to make his own stuff lol.... wouldnt be as original if he bought something.... Link to post Share on other sites
ThePatriot Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 i think donut wants to make his own stuff lol.... wouldnt be as original if he bought something.... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> But purchased pieces would be a lot more stable than say, meccano. Link to post Share on other sites

Donut Posted March 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 Well, sorry for the lack of updates lately... Anime, GRAW2, and school has been keeping me busy. I just need a couple more days left, I'll probably finish to beta in spring break. I have designed the XM90 Mod. 0 for all you rail whores and an AG90 for all you GL whores... but whether I'll make it or not is a totally different story. Link to post Share on other sites
Lon Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Man, this project is an inspiration. I'm thinking of trying to do my own P90 project heavily based on the XM90 (although I know I'll never make a gun as good ), but I doubt I'll have the balls to do it... Well... I'm okay with adding a G36 front end (thinking of a G36C's front) sawing through my P90's lower reciever to add a pistol grip will be scary as hell. I've worked on a few concepts in Paint a lil bit, and the pistol grip makes a huge difference in the gun's looks. Ah well. It's either this or a PS90 project, which'll be a hell of a lot easier... or, a P90 with a G36C/K front end and nothing else (a half-assed XM90 ). Link to post Share on other sites
crablegs Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Could you put a large g36 fore arm and use large batts? Link to post Share on other sites
Donut Posted May 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 Lord knows it's been long enough since I've updated. I've been busy with other stuff. So as per requested, here're some new pics. And something special for those on the island Link to post Share on other sites
Yeager Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 chop the sight back down, keep the L85 foregrip, and sell it to me. Edit: Patriot offer still stands. Link to post Share on other sites
Insanejoe Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 Have any pictures of the gun you are building for EmptyChambers(james)? Its not the XM90 but still i'd like to see it :-) Link to post Share on other sites

Its not the XM90 but still i'd like to see it :-) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Let me know if you want more pics The 9 weapon I think making an AEG out of a springer is just about the hardest thing you can do... Right now it doesn't look much, but I had to redesign the loading nozzle, the trigger, the trigger bar, the back, the barrel mount... the list goes on... It's about half-way done now. The harder part is over, now it's just cosmetics and some tweaking. Empty is getting a steal for this Around the same price as a new Marui, but it's okay since it's a first job.

my_plague_666 Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 hmm, paint the carry handle black, i know you probably plan to but its hard to decide whether something looks in place unless it blends in a bit. oh and it doesnt look nearly as good with the L85 front Link to post Share on other sites
Tinkerton Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 <SNIP> oh and it doesnt look nearly as good with the L85 front <{POST_SNAPBACK}> He's right. It looks about a hundred times better! Keep it, spray the whole thing OD and do....something to the carry handle. It just looks awkward right now. maybe if you make it slightly shorter? Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 The carry handle is too long. And it's not level with the handgrip. Level it, then shorten the carry handle by 3 inches and make the supporting bracket for it vertical. That'll look much better. Link to post Share on other sites
