    hey Fellas!

    So I FINALLY found time to work on it, filed down the barrel, and slid the flash hider on. How far down should it go? Currently the end nearest the gun is 6 cm, maybe a little less, away from the magazine.

    Thanks!

    Sep 8, 2012 - Re: Han Solo DL44 blaster NEW PICS PAGE 3!!!! Please Reply! #52

    Hey guys, long time no talk! Finall got a chance to post pics. Holes are all tapped, barrel is sanded! All that is left is to prime and paint. Pictures for your viewing pleasure!!

    Quick question. Does the gun seem too long to you guys? I could fix that, just need a second opinion. IF so, how much shorter should it be? Imperial ruler and my thumb are in picture for comparison. FYI, thumb is about 3 in long from knuckle to tip.

    And, the scope mount seems to swivel. Is it because of the 1/8 inch rubber washer between the scope mount and gun? How can I fix the swiveling?

    SOO close to finishing!

    Please Reply!!

    I do not know the correct length.

    With that being said... for that style, I always try to keep the it so that once the muzzle was in place, it ended at the same place the original barrel did.

    Thanks. It ended up being about what you said, but maybe a centimeter shorter than that. I will post pics this weekend, in school right now!

    the whole gun barrel (including flash-hider) is 5 inches long, that is 12.7 centimeters.
