Nighty's Newb Shewter 2.0

[Nightcrawler]

I've had my PDW repaired and ugraded to my liking and finally got off my lazy ass to take the pictures.

It was professionally upgraded by the good folks at WMI Airsoft. The internal upgrades include new steel bushgings, a tighter spring, a polycarbonate piston, a new cylinder and stainless steel cylinder head, and an aluminum ventilation piston head.

My new inner barrel is probably the most noticeable upgrade seeing as it protrudes about 2 1/2 inches outside my silencer. It's good for a laugh until i get the end hacked off. A friend of mine turned out to be a talented machinist and has done it before. Small world I suppose.

I still have my 1000 round TOP drum mag that I use with it as well as well as my Star mags that I use depending on my mood. It has a Bushnell red dot that I have found to be quite accurate at certain ranges. I have high profile rings that allow my to use my iron sights if I want to.

I also use a 9.6 volt stick to power it. My old 8.4 just didn't have the umph to operate the gun. The only problem I ran into with the new stick is that I had to get dremel-happy on some parts on the inside of my body to get it to fit.

As promised, it fires like a new gun. However, my semi-auto fire doesn't work so I'm stuck on fully auto... not that I'm complaining

Nighty's Newb Shewter 2.0 will be appearing at ACO July this Saturday.

Check out the pics:

I'm lucky to be the only guy on the safe side of this gun.


This is what the barrel looks like without the silencer covering it up:


Here's a comparison between my stock PDW barrel and my new one. Notice the difference?


Enjoy, and let me know what ya think.

Cool Beans. For some reason I like it without the optics on it.

[Nightcrawler]

I know what you mean. I think it's because the low-profile mount and such high rings tend to conflict.

[Psychosis]

really? I think the scope is pretty cool, though perhaps you should cover up the "5.56mm" markings on the suppressor since it looks rather out of place on a "9mm" platform.

[Nightcrawler]

That's probably a good idea. I'll probably get around to it.

Although, it does make the gun a little more surreal.

Global Operations anyone?

That was the first thought that came to my head.

I like it.

[Napalm]

very very nice, good customization.

I like the look from the front with thr drum magazine. It looks cool.

[Nightcrawler]

Hey, fellas. Just wanted you all to know that my buddy took off the end of my barrel with a pipe cutter and chamfered it. It's performing just as it did before except I no longer look like a scrub with that inner barrel sticking out.

Thanks for the feedback.

Global Operations man I didn't think anybody else played that craptastic game. What a counter strike ripoff that was.
Cool rig though, just need to scrath off that 5.56 marking

When are you fieldin the Vietnam gear?

[Nightcrawler]

I'm in no rush to scratch off the 5.56 marking. When and if I sell the PDW, I'd like to leave everything as untampered-with as I can.

I've had my Nam gear for a little while and wore it to ACO July last week. I'll be fielding it at the next WMI event that I attend, which could be in a few weeks. I won't be switching back to my modern gear until I have my selector plate fixed and will be more tempted to use the star mags that my nam gear can't accomodate.

Look for me at upcoming WMI events, Jumprefusal. I'll be hard to miss.

[Trooper]

i love it

[maximus01701]

Just me, or does the barrel look bent?

[Nightcrawler]

It's not just you, it looks bent in the picture to me too but I can assure that it is not. It's straight as an arrow when you look down it and it performs just fine in the NS2.
