Hey everybody, I thought I might as well shed some light on what I'm up to on the MA37.
As Brandon had said, I have something interesting up my sleeve, so brace yourselfs for what I'm about to post.
I will be creating a 80% field strippable version of the MA37 Assault Rifle. Basicly, if you remember by Weta version Battle Rifle, it will be something similar to that, but a slightly different set up. I'm doing lots of research at the moment on weapons that are similar to the MA37, and how they work so I can create the most accurate internals for it as possible.
I'll be dawing up some schematics of the seperate parts of the Assault Rifles internals parts soon, my research is nearly complete. I will be posting progress pictures ASAP.
Here’s a list of the parts that will be in the whole Assault Rifle kit:
Externals:
-Lower Butt end Receiver
-Lower Receiver
-Upper Receiver
-Upper Electronics Bulkhead
-ACS Module
-Various other pins, screws, washers and nuts for assembly
Internals:
-Firing pin
-Recoil Spring
-Bolt Carrier (housing for the Firing Pin)
-Short Stroke Gas Piston assembly (A few detailed parts and a long thin spring)
-Barrel
-Magazine
-32 Rounds Standard NATO casings (Dummy Rounds-Cast in plastic)
-Various other springs needed for assembly
-Various other pins, screws, washers and nuts for assembly
The only part I am skipping out on is the trigger assembly. It should have everything a real firearm has other then the trigger assembly, so the realism will be extremely close to what this bad boy would be like in the real world.
Its going to be a huge project, but it will be worth it in the end for sure. Besides, who wouldn't want a totally bad-@$$ Assault Rifle that you could completly take a part like a real firearm, clean, and put back togeather? Throw some SPARTAN III armour on, and you'll be in the real Halo world, with the absence of the Covenant of coarse.
Anyway, wish me luck. I'm going to need it!
anyone have anything?
