Stormtrooper E-11 Blaster Rifle
This is an S&T Sterling airsoft gun that has been gutted and the internals replaced with lights and sounds. This is probably one of the most accurate metal Sterlings you can get without breaking the bank (more or less
) on a real deactivated one.
Specs
Rubber T-tracks from TFX Studios
Super accurate PlayfulWolfCub power cylinders (FISD Forum)
Replica Hengstler Counter from Blue Snaggletooth (FISD Forum)
Custom made scope rail
Vintage M38a2 tank scope (Not 100% accurate to the original but still awesome!)
Plecter Labs Blaster Core 4.0
RGB Superflux LED barrel light
6 segment LED ammo counter
The stand is also custom made using a simple design consisting of wood and PVC. I added a piece of sheet metal on the area of the bolt that covers the ejection chamber to give it a more accurate look. When painting the power cylinders, I gave it a crude paint job by intentionally missing spots and even wiping off wet paint. This was to give them a bit of a weathered and used look. The LEDs used for the bar graph display (and the trigger switch) are held in place using a special part I designed and 3D printed myself. The tube protecting the wires from the counter to the Sterling is actually the same type found in Lego Technic kits.

This build was much more challenging than it looked but in the end the results are what count and they make me very happy! I can't wait to pair this with my incoming Anovos armor and hopefully join up with the 501st. Thanks all for looking!
