Why is this in the Noob section? I nominate this to be put into the Weapons section in the Creation Discussion area.

Ahh, the mysterious wood worker has a WIP thread. 'Bout time, I almost missed it here in the Noob section.



I noticed your work when you loaded up your MA5B build pictures into the gallery LO5T V1K1N6, glad to see you starting up a thread and walking us through this one. Looking very good so far my friend, and I'm looking forward to seeing more.

Agreed. This deserved to be noticed.

Oh MODs- care takers of the 405th- please hear my plea and notice this topic. For Shade and I believe it to be worthy of more notice. Thank you for your time oh great ones!

just a note: Be careful about using a bullet, even a spent one, in that breach. Most Cons have a rule of "No Live Steel", which means "No steel that looks like it could kill." some also have a rule of "No bullets or explosives, live or otherwise", which means if it looks like it has a live bullet in it, it's not allowed. Maybe paint the bullet blue (The universal color of training [TTR] Rounds).



Oh, and if that bullet was just for scale? you should totally make the breach spring-loaded with the bullet behind it. It'd be epic.

Looks awesome. You are building it the way I would and I love that.



When I looked at your earlier props, I thought "sweet".



I can check one off my list. I don't need to build this one. It is already being masterfully made.



Keep up the great work.

That's exactly what I thought (and has always impressed me about your builds Lee). I'm really looking forward to seeing builds from another prop maker with similar sense and style to yours.

Thanks you guys! I would have updated sooner but I was in Seattle all weekend.

It's dummy (no powder) 7.62 NATO round, and I wasn't planning on taking it to any conventions. Even if I did, I'm planning to modify a real .308 mag to fit the gun so I could just take the rounds out.

I should also mention that I'm not planning to make the triangles on the side. (I just think it looks better without them.) Also my bandsaw blade broke so I'm kinda at a standstill until it gets replaced.



Thanks again for all the encouraging comments.



Doodly Doo.

this looks like it's gonna be a bad ***(3) ************(12) when it's done.

 

[L05T V1K1N6]

Small Update: I'll let the picture speak for itself.

Got a new bandsaw blade so more updates soon.

 

[llinformerll]

This looks so amazing.

 

[mc halo3]

PEWWWW!!!! can't wait. More updates please.

 

[L05T V1K1N6]

Update: Upper receiver is finished! All I have left to do is the flash hider.

Oh, and here's a bonus:

What did you use for the charging handle? Looks like one of those twisty screw thingies that hold Exacto knife blades in place.

Actually, it's a piece of 1/2" plastic tube wrapped in mesh from a screen door. The rest of the bolt is just dowel.

 

[Brandon McClain]

Looks like you put your blood and sweat into your work! It looks absolutely phenomenal. I really hope you decide to mold this, or have someone mold it for you. I would almost die to get my hands on one of these!!!

 

[Bigwillie5]

looks sweet! where did u get the rails? and how r they mounted?

 

[Sir Tsaboc]

It looks incredible! I have a lot of faith in your skills in this project. I'm excited to see the final product!

 

[Gallard]

This is sick. I wish I had the equipment to go out and build some awesome weapons.
