My morganthirteen / joatrash lawgiver kit arrived last week. As you can see, the main body was painted red for UK customs. It got through with no problems; I didn’t have to pay any duty or fees.
The casting is really nice, there is hardly any clean up required. I could have just made this straight from the box. With a nice paint job, it would make a great prop. But I’ve decided to do a few modifications.
I cut away the Glock part of the kit, and got a CYMA P.817 airsoft gun (only £14) to replace it. This was so I could have a removable magazine and spring loaded trigger. It also meant I could get access to the rear of the display to back light it.
I cut out the display area and inserted a piece of clear acrylic. I fixed in place five warm white LED’s. The self-adhesive graphics that come with the kit are nice, but they don’t let light through. So I’m looking for some graphics that can be backlit (preferably self-adhesive ones).
I got a Guarder frame for a Tokyo Marui Glock 17/18. It’s definitely better quality than the CYMA, and has all the correct Glock markings. I was going to use it on this build, but as I have another lawgiver kit on order, I think I’ll save it for that.
I’ve cut the frame to fit the main body.
The front magazine will be held on with strong magnets, and will contain a battery pack for the LED’s. The only other mod I will do, is to get some inert rounds for the front magazine, instead if the cast resin ones.
