sniper rifle base

[JDFett]

curious what y'all think about this rifle as a base to build on

its 1/3 the price of the 100 dollar replicas....

Sorta looks like the one I posted, but that stock looks longer than mine.

Should work.


Edit: Here's the picture:

It used to have the gold bans around the barrel and the stock and had the same orange tip. I think it was my brother's gun when he was a kid.

There's no brand or anything on mine, just has Davy Crockett on the stock and a sticker that says something like "Made in America, by Americans".

Looks ok to me apart from the silver (we paint it black) breech plates. A greeblie hides them anyway though
The stock is more curved too. Looks almost graceful.

You could sand them down anyway?

Here's a real one and yours

Your stock would need a lot of work plus you'd be missing the loading rod basket. (thing underneath)

ya...i suppose the cheaper way isnt always the better way..LOL

probably just breakdown and spend the 100 on ebay

I think it'd be a great start... in fact I'd be very interested in seeing that
