Kal's Custom Mando

What do you guys think about this for firepower?

Actually... they are modded A280s, which yes is the Endor Commando Rifle. Check out wookiepedia, it's a pretty solid piece of kit but I don't like the whole long barrel version. Mine will be a bit more... customized. I'll probably add a little bit more to it but the big changes are I shortened the barrel, added a cheekpiece to the stock and trimmed the buttplate down, also added some muzzle devices just to make it look more tactical. Here's some pictures of the originals.

And this one is the Hoth and Endor rifles compared... as you can see neither are modded too much so it'll be easier on me, and it's an "in universe" piece of kit, so it should pass muster. One is an AR15 (which I can EASILY build up) and the other is a German Sturmgehwer 44.

hey, as long as you like it ner vod, go for it!

And actually yes...sanded the hell outta it and it's starting to look more correct and less blocky...gah! I need to take some pics and show you what I mean...
 
Apparently Adonian has been moving &c., Levi's been job searching, I've been slowly crushed under loads of college work, I dont know about anyone else...lol.

And NOT THE WHIP! :p I'll get on that ner vod...I just hate posting pics when it's like just not quite perfect....yet...
 
lol yeah I've been really busy at work... you'd think there was a war on or something! lmao anyhow, yeah I've actually almost got the armor done, I'm still trying to get a few more pieces/parts made and painted, then I'll be ready to rock!
 
A'd'ika... any pics? Oh Ado'ika... I need your whip ner vod! lol As for the kit, I'm still working... a little slow right now due to work and the fact that my wife keeps planning out every second of my weekends. I'll see what I can do about getting something done this evening. May have some time tomorrow afternoon. Anyhow, I've also decided to go with a bit of a camo pattern, but I'm not sold on which one yet.
 
lol I may use multicam eventually... but it's not going on my plates ner vod. I was referring to the armor itself, not the undersuit. I too like multicam, and I was one of the guys who was pushing for wider adoption of the stuff when we got the ABUs, instead we got the ABU pattern, which is fine when working in urban environments or when working with the Army because it helps us blend in with them, but I've noticed a lot of our combat airmen (spec ops guys) don't wear the ABUs in the field. Instead, it seems like they opt for the older BDUs and multicam fairly frequently.

also... started on the frame for my A280 Tactical Carbine... however due to weather in the area I'm going to have to put it on pause for the time being. Pics when I can.
