Hi all
The Conversion is complete! Last thing to do was add the t track. Now it's not traditional t track. I bought sliding screen track from Lowe's. 4$ for 8 feet. I used it because it was cheap and it looked good on my last sterling. The only problem I had was getting the bend in the plastic near the hop up area. It's very shallow there. Also the holes are smaller than a traditional sterling. The Scope is resin but it's a very detailed and clean copy was painted already. The Hengstler is also resin. I darkened up the bolt area. The bright aluminum there didn't look right to me. Did a light weathering with a chrome marker pen. Rubbed the silver in certain areas and ran it along the edge in other areas. I left it functional as a airsoft gun. Very happy with how this turned out.
