So with one of the B pulls from the Shae Vizla mold I decided to do something a bit different for the Mando gunslingers and have a blaster that looks and feels a bit like the .44 Magnum with a modern scope.
So with some of the casting defects in the blaster from the pigment not mixing properly (enter crap stirring from me) i decided to cut the main barrel section and magazine off and reuse an MG-34 barrel that i have drilled in PVC and cut down to the right length to replace it. Will not replace the magazine/power cell at this stage.
After a bit of thought of either using a modern airsoft scope but want to stay away from recognised military and civilian kit and could not be bothered scratch building a scope i relayed i could re-use the cut off barrel in reverse
Now to tidy up the cast defects in the resin, add a floating ally barrel and do some optics mods to the scope and get ready for paint.
Terror
