Got my SoloHold GK mounts last week and decided to upgrade my current blasters with these.
Here are the two GK´s in their OLD configuration...
Real MGCs, Vince/ CE grills, real scopes (one 2 1/2, one 4x31), real flashhiders, Vince/ CE mount on one, mount from unknown make on the second.
One thing we should pay more attention to are the screw-caps for the COMPAC windage knobs.
There are two variations found on either the 2 1/2x and the 4x31, but only one is accurate...the cap with SMALLER bevel!
Here are my two GK´s on the operating table :lol
...and here is how they look NOW.
I had to set the crossbar on the screenused GK configuration slightly further back to meet the holes already drilled/ tapped from my older mount. This results in a small gap between the mount and the grill, where it SHOULD sit flush against it. Will see, if I fill/ redrill the rear hole in the near future. Gave the screenused blaster a very subtle weathering and decided to leave the grips brown instead of painting them black.
The VD GK has the mount positioned properly and has been weathered more (will redo it asap, just had an hour today to work on these). I also painted the grips black and gave them a slight sanding on the edges to show some wear and expose the brown plastic underneath.
Aarons parts are very well done, BUT I will definately rework the countersunk holes of the discs, since these should be deeper/ more angled so the screws reveal some of the bevel. Looking to upgrade my CE grills (which have too straight edges) with Aarons, if he still has a few spares.
Also had to add some small washers underneath the crossbar of the screenused GK. Otherwise the rear scope-ring would interfere with the C96s rear sight.
Enough talk, here are the pics
Also received my second venturi for the Jawa blaster :cool
Thx for looking.
