Foam N8TEBB's Foam MA40 Halo Infinite Assault Rifle

[N8TEBB]

Update

Added mag, grip, trigger, and barrel

​

Notes:

• I did a lot of scoring then heating to get those line details, although I should really practice doing tight curves.​
• The non-functional light and other bit sticking out the front of the gun have a small dowel supporting them so they don't get ripped off.​
• I used the Dremel sanding bit to do a lot of the circles for bolt holes.​
• The template proved to be quite useful for sizing of items and sometimes shape, but for the most part I used my printed AR and nerf AR as a guide so decide the overall geometry.​
• Next up I need to fill the gaps with kwik seal​

The barrel is attached to the dowel that goes the entire length of the gun. It is removable. I think I will make a second barrel so I can have one black one and one orange one, interchanging them for different rules at different cons.

I was lucky enough to get Easter Monday off so I was able to spend about half that day just working on this thing!

Are you planning on adding the ammo counter with leds? (If you said it in this forum thread my eyes probably didn't comprehend the words it saw)

No LEDs as I want this to be as hassle-free of a prop as possible. No batteries, no lights, nothing to go wrong. The idea is it's a prop that I don't have to worry about if i drop it on the ground, get bumped in to, etc.

For the ammo counter I'll probably just use a cricut stencil or sticker

I saw a video on youtube of a guy using a light blue vinyl sticker and it looked like it was lit up just because of the color. Ended up looking better than most LED backlit ammo counters
