M41A + lead farming, need I say more?

[hyperdyne]

Here it is, the rifle of all rifles. Yes, the M41A pulse rifle.

I was fortunate to help out on this project by designing a custom 50 round ammo counter. The proto needed some tweaking but I think we are finally there. I am stoked! This is certainly one of the coolest working replicas I have seen. :thumbsup

Here are some videos I can share, the slow motion ones are sweet!

What kind of recoil dampening do you have in that thing? It doesn't look like it moves at all.

 

[jhusel]

THAT is awesome!!!!!!!! WOW

 

[GrenadeKing]

That is awesome! Do want! :eek

I better put away my credit card when I go to the Knob Creek MG shoot or else I might put myself in debt from trying to gather bits for one of these. :lol

OH DEAR GOD...I just wet my pants

What's it built on? That doesn't look like a thompson to me. What's in front of the trigger guard?

GREAT BUILD, whatever it's built on. Looks like great fun to shoot.

Holy frak

 

[ONEYE]

I'm still rigid after seeing the video hours ago!

"LET'S ROCK!"

 

[Delmustator]

Makes me want a class 3 license just to own one. Someone needs to make a .22 or 9mm version that is semi-auto. I would buy one for sure. 9mm + 12 ga all-in-one would ROCK!!

extremely jealous :love

 

[silverskyes402]

Holy Mother!!! That is just plain awesome!

 

[LizardJedi]

What are they using for the base? I don't recognize what it is. A custom designed/built SMG?

 

[Scapey]

Holy crap!

Right, how do I get a greencard?

A WWII Thompson machine gun.

That is awesome :eek you could have long lines of fans wanting to have a go on that ! put me down for a ticket :cool

That is not a Thompson M1A1, hence my comment. For starters, the bolt, cocking knob, and ejection port are completely different.
Then there's the "grip frame" area or lack there of rather.

Yeah, the original Pulse Rifles were based on that, but this replica isn't.

 

[GrenadeKing]

Definitely not a Thompson, and it can't be a "new" gun because of restrictions. In the US no civilian can own a machine gun manufactured after 1986. That doesn't rule out a modified gun, because the receiver would still be pre-ban.

The mag looks double stacked and I'm leaning toward 9mm.
