Boy it's been awhile. Not only on this project but also since I've been here. This was put on the back burner until I happened to randomly stumble on a liner at a pawn shop. Got it for a killer deal so now I'm motivated again to continue.

Yeah it took my mom some years ago. I loved mail call. It may have been the start of my interest in firearms. I remember he used .45 rounds as ear plugs.

Thank you. Yes the sight is spat's. It's a great piece.

Something like this.

I took the plunge with the bucket and cut into her. I lost the original strap hinge bit. I made my own and I think it will work better. Same idea but this one has more surface area so better seal? Just did a ghetto solder weld. It will be covered so no biggie.

I was just yesterday getting ready to order the other one. I will probably give this one a go since I threw away the orange tip. It was days before I found out the use for it on here. Now I won't have to come up with a fix for the barrel length.

Got mine today. Probably going to wait a bit to get ideas together on how to tackle this.

I got extremely lucky with my order. I was going to order through amazon.jp and even set up an account with one of those hub locations in Japan that would receive it and ship it to the states. I checked one more site that had it in and bought it right then. Now my wife makes fun of me for...

Got a shipping notification today. I'm guessing it should arrive by the end of the week.

Well just paid so now the wait.

I just ordered from there today. Waiting on the email notification to pay.

Looks like this could very much be my jam. https://youtu.be/T5ONHUBXABE

Thanks for the tip. I don't actually have a liner and don't plan on trooping so I'm doing something different with the padding. I'm pretty much making my own stylized padding the way a real world helmet would be. Kinda like Storm Trooper Buckets have been done. Anyway I finished the mic boom...

Ear defender is almost done. I won't camo till I have it all put together but it's coming along.

I have Holy Water from Castlevania.
