I started a new project ;D. Unfortunately after seeing El Phantasamo's work I feel mine is a bit shitty to say the least... Oh well, today I bring to you the murder of a L96. It all started with a broken L96 and a spare V6 gearbox... Then I had the idea to insert said gearbox in the sniper. Well, I''l let the pictures explain what happened. (This build is still in progress... Pictures aren't the greatest because they are more to catalog the build then show it off...) This was after about 4 hours of dremeling. Just showing what I had accomplished thus far... Another 2-3 hours rendered this. The gearbox now could easily fit in the bolt carrier. (I had originally wanted the l96's cylinder to hide my gearbox, but the fit is so tight as of now I can't get it to fit. I may come back to it at the end.) Another hour rendered these results. It now fit nicely in both of the metal components. I still had the problem of fitting the outer barrel onto the gun seeing has how I trashed the threads to screw it in. >.> I finally countersunk a screw into the space between the rail and body and threaded the outer barrel to allow a screw to go in... Its as wobbly as a 2 piece TM barrel. I plan on fixing that tomorrow. Just different ideas I have floating around in my head... I am leaning towards the m4 mag set up... Anyways, that is what I have done so far... I still have to work on getting the trigger set up (dual stage trigger stolen from a donor p90 : and figure out my hop up and mag situation. Whatcha think?

Why? Haha, not bad though, the hop up/magwell will give you the most issue. Are you going to actually wire it into the rear? And are you going to actually upgrade it to be sniper rifle worthy (high torque motor, 550+ fps spring, reinforcing everything, 500+mm inner barrel, ect)?

What kind of magazines are you using for this? Use a VN mag, it'll look a lot better and look comparable to a short mag on the L96 at least.

Just the opposite. I'll be using a 30rps gearbox I already have built and a ~400mm barrel. What kind of magazines are you using for this? Use a VN mag, it'll look a lot better and look comparable to a short mag on the L96 at least. That's what I am leaning to. I just don't have a vn mag.

Then I had the idea to insert said gearbox in the sniper. Ouch. I hope you bought him dinner and romanced him a bit first.

Why would you want a high RPS gearbox...in a sniper rifle? Contradiction much? >_< . At first I was like meh, but now with that setup, I wanna slap you . I have 2 tan (CA?) VN hi-cap mags you can buy.

VN hi-cap mags you can buy. I would need money for that... Also, the point is to make people think I have a l96 when in fact I have something much more deadly. I have nothing else to say.
