Marv Posted May 12, 2013 Report Posted May 12, 2013 Not an in depth build story on this one unlike my first, but a couple of show off pictures of my latest addition to my trooper collection. I was exceptionally fortunate with this deactivation after purchasing a partial build - the base sterling, original M19 scope and rail (though for this I use one of the rails and the M19 scope from my earlier project), and a shortened magazine. Essentially all I had to do was to add track. And together with my first build, enjoy Quote

Marv Posted June 11, 2014 Author Report Posted June 11, 2014 Yeah I think I posted it in the wrong place originally, should have gone in under ANH D'Oh! Quote
usaeatt2 Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 A nice pair! For those of us who are learning, can you explain the difference in the rails and scope hardware? I usually see rails like the one on top, but is the bottom rail also accurate? Something about the curve in the bottom rail mixed with all the horizontal T-track lines doesn't look right - LOL, Frank Lloyd Wright would have a heart attack. But I do see the bottom rail has to curve because of the size of the hardware... Quote
gazmosis[501st] Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Many of the blasters seen...including Han's, didn't have the 90 degree bend at the front of the scope rail but I don't remember a scope rail with that amount of bow in it. Quote
Marv Posted June 12, 2014 Author Report Posted June 12, 2014 The front bolt is actually sat on the top of the sterling, and was from the original M19 housing, I think it may simply be the angle of the shot. Quote

You'd need to refer to my first build where I detailed much of this http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/15956-my-first-e11-project/ and received much help from the great bunch of guys here on the forum.
