Hi,
I haven't seen Aliens since I was a kid (because it scared the crap out of me.)
Let me tell you, I've been missing out on one of the coolest, most badass movies ever made.
Since I saw it again today, I was itching to build a pulse rifle. Even if it wasn't 100% Accurate. I have to have one. I'm not really much of a prop maker/weapon maker but I will do my best.
The plan is to just make a quick test version using things I had around the house. because I can't really wait for the airsoft guns/styrene to come in. So, I'll just make it with what I have around. Foamcore, toy gun, hot glue, ruler hobby knife and luck
Total cost of this build was probably around $10-$15 bucks.
So here goes.
scaled and printout a pic of a pulse rifle from Google.
After scaling it too big...:unsure
I scaled and printed another one...heh
I'm using a really cheap electronic toy gun as the base for now.
It will do. I've used my hacksaw to trim off some parts so it can work.
Still needed more areas from it removed. Like that mag area needs to go.
Tracing the parts onto the foamcore sheets.
Cut out the parts of the housing
Quick mock up for self motivation
