Decided to finally get around to making this. Spent some time this weekend. Always wanted one, and no prop collection can be complete without one. Scratchbuilt using resin part from TK560. Some of the resin pieces needed and bit of work to get them right, especially the folding stock. I lost the early on progress pics.
Main body made from PVC pipe. Cutouts done using the template at blaster builders club. I glued on the trigger frame, folding stock, barrel tip, and front site. Cracks were filled with spot putty and sanded-
The folding stock needed a bit of work. I had to build up the tip and re-shape and sand it-
Next I glued a second pvc pipe inside the main body. I was going to go for a spring and misc internals, but decided this route was much easier and made the blaster look cleaner, and feel more solid. End cap, magazine and magazine housing, and rear site are glued on-
Next, I built the site rail using a piece of aluminum flat bar from Lowe's. The scope is then JB welded on-
I am building the stock swing arm and flash supressors tonight hopefully. Then it will be time for one last spot sand and primer
