I’m not sure I understand what you mean by not going to work?Metal will work for a few simple parts but the parts that make the scope mount and shoulder stock, not so much.

Yes.Will there only be one Buttstock option or will both versions be available?

Awesome, Can we see the Hoth A280?So I’m getting the Hoth A280 variant done as a commission by dkraude, as well as this Endor run. I have to say he’s been very communicative, has sent progress photos and videos.
Custom takes a bit but I’m honestly surprised how communicative he’s been with different parts of the process and his work so far.
Pleasant experience so far. Figured people might want to know.

I mean that the parts that make up the scope mount are complicated, geometry wise, and that would cost a lot of money to CNC.I’m not sure I understand what you mean by not going to work?
I see what you mean. There is a level of difficulty to design and machine parts, but that is what makes prop building all the more fun right? Some of my most favorite props are the ones that I have spent the most time on.I mean that the parts that make up the scope mount are complicated, geometry wise, and that would cost a lot of money to CNC.
Perhaps someone has original parts to cast.
A resin cast part will be much easier to deal with; also the original parts were plastic.
The parts need to be cut as described in this build thread from 2016: Endor rifle - any idea what this part is?
The missing photos show what needs to be cut up (you need to forestock (sp?) parts to make the mount for the blaster rifle:

No worries Bro. We are only in the gathering interest phase right now.Still didn´t find the time to take the promised reference pictures, sorry guys
Will do asap
Will they ship to the US?There is a place in the UK that currently has for sale a Jackal magazine and rifle stock for sale.
Too rich for me:Will they ship to the US?
I will check into it.Too rich for me:
Hi Mike,
Fully understand. We have to send them as gun parts and the UK customs make it difficult under that heading so we use a dedicated courier company. Hence the cost.
Must say they are extremely rare and this is our very last one.
Apologies,
Colin @ Relics
