first attempt on a nerf ma37

[tac2002]

Hey there...so i wanted to take a swing at making a ma37 from halo reach but i couldn't figure out what type to make so looked at some other designs and build and found that i could not compete in their level of craftsmanship... so i did the easy way and used a nerf gun...i couldn't get a hold of a nerf recon that i see on 405th, but Im using the retaliator... close i guess..:$

Looks like it's coming along nicely keep up dem pics!!!

how come you didn't use a Rayven? the MA37 is a bullpup.

...that is a Recon. Seriously, it's almost exactly the same.
Think of that model as the Recon MkII. 90% of the parts are identical.

Looks like it's coming along nicely though!
Might use this for reference if I try and mod my own Recon.

Here is mine with the Rayven and Recon Barrels, made to look like the MA5D, Currently being sold on eBay. Gonna make another someday using just the Recon like everyone else

ok maybe next time i'll try a rayven nerf...

Your build is actually better then mine. I used reference from someone else's build. I hope you don't sell it, cause perfect builds deserve to be with you. Mine isn't perfect but good enough to be sold.

[DD117]

Yeah, its now way better then my build.

This has been awe inspiring to watch unfold. I made a Nerf MA37 awhile back based off of one SkyLow showed a long time ago.. which took me a while to finish
Your progress has been very enlightening so far, I look forward to seeing your finished work!

Are you going to do anything about the raised Nerf logo on the side? Beyond that, this is one of the best Nerf mods I've seen. I really like the way you did the cylindrical foregrip; so much better than grabbing a used Coke bottle like so many I've seen.

How did you work with the LED Light?

This is really impressive I can't tell it is foam in the final product!
