Ok, here's some decent photos of the ME3 Swarmfire
I REALLY like this. Not only did it let me know this Nerf gun existed it inspired me to do my own. I'll post pics when it's done.
Thanks JohnsonArms!

Where'd you get that one from?
2. I picked up a squirt gun for 50 cents and cut off some section and covering holes with thin scrap plastic. I went through my junk box and found an old brass turn knob that I machined a few years back to use for the trigger. I used a replica graflex glass eye holder in the barrel section with a piece of an old pen I stuck inside. Below that is a fake LED bezel from an old Larbel Obi saber.
I used several layers of paint and wet sanded each layer. The main color is a color called anodized bronze. It is a dark gray metallic color. I figured that too many people use black. Using that color allowed me to us a black wash as to create a weathered look and help pick up the details.

Thanks much! Here's tonight's home stretch. The front grill will go back on last
What type of gun is that?!
Also I know it's not nerf but here is the only custom gun I've made
For my Design Fundamentals II class we had to create an Assemblage piece (basically we had to take random objects and turn them into another object) I thought this would be the perfect opportunity for me to make my first prop! I decided that I wanted to make a Steampunk Ray gun. I made this using some forks I had bent at various magic gigs, an old Airsoft Revolver my brother gave me to use as a movie prop, a tin can, a LOT of Electric Tape, some Rubber Bands, Magnetic LED's (I got these from thinkgeek... they are AMAZING!), and Copper spray paint. I also painted the handle a Rusty brown color and painted some grey highlights on the gun. I really love how this piece turned out! Let me know what you think!

@max replica. I usually de-logo my guns altho the one I am playing with right now has so much detail(a cammo pattern) that I decided to leave it be.
Be careful with the flat primers. I have found they look great until you shoot some pics. The flash or bright lights really make the finish look dusty.

Very nice job on the gun! It looks good and old!
The pistol is actually a Rhino 200DS. See the actual gun below..

Nice! And Dang! I wonder if they still have them... Probably not, probably newer ones.
Some REALLY amazing work here, folks! I've been wanting to get back into doing some custom weapons, and you've all inspired me to get back into it when the funds come. Gonna have to make me a fancy version of that Longshot, I guess.
Don't know if anyone posted this, but I found it while doing a search for the Longshot.
