turtleangell

This paint scheme here is the woodland camoflague. Turtleangell contacted me on eBay and asked to have this wonderful gun made up. It shoots like a charm and works stupendously. The photo was taken before the barrel was painted. There is only 1/2" od orange on the tip, so don't worry about it looking too funny when you recieve the package.

Shotgun Recon

Now I asked myself sometime through the mod, Why didn't I just go buy a raider. Then I remembered that the only good thing that the raider gives you is the 35 round drum. So I was talking with my brother in arms about hanging over while I worked on some Stampedes. I did a Stampede and he did the internals on his Recon. He then said, "is there any way to make this into a shotgun?" After a few seconds of pondering, I whipped into the parts drawer and retrieved a recon. after a few seconds in the bandsaw, I explained how to build the shotgun mod to him. Of course, hot glue is for 7 year olds, so we used plastics 2 part epoxy for the adhesives with braces in the gun.

 My first time painting digital camo, I think that it came out pretty nice. There are a few oversprays on the stencils, but I am cleaning them up with a light overspray of each color, as seen in the photos. That final touch adds a little extra that actually makes the paint look better. This is another all out modification, and it's pretty cool to play with. The overpowering 14.4 system will mow over everybody.

This was a great opportunity to let all of the horses out. Both a modified Stampede with a 12v system and an awesome Longshot, ianscerri is getting his money's worth multiple times over. The paint scheme is Urban Camouflage.

Aaron contacted me about building a dual night finder, or the Manta Ray. I had never heard of the blaster mod before, but after analyzing the blaster through YouTube videos, I was able to make one heck of a gun. I haven't measured a spread, but the blaster is pretty powerful with the AR's and the spring mods. I drew a model in Google's SketchUp and based my plans on that.

ACOG Longshot Scope




I took a longshot scope and shortened it up. The remnants of the scope was cut off and the lenses were glued back on. Looks best ontop of an alpha trooper with a spectre stock.

Holy Grenades!


I came across a large bunch of nerf grenades! Called the Lanard Scatter Blast, they are discontinued and not available anywhere. I'm so excited to get these out and play with them. But I can't be a stickler and keep them to myself, so I'm sharing them with you. They are available for purchase on eBay separately or with the Stampede Mod.

This first one that I completed goes to my French comrade, erikose51. The paint here is the Steampunk / Worn Out look.






Deploy Stock Integration

This deploy, I took and added a stock to the back of the blaster. The Recon barel extension had a piece of 1/2" pcv added for extra length. A 40mm airsoft grenade launcher was fitted to the barrel and fired mini vortex footballs at the enemy.
