Hi there.
It has been a while since I have posted anything here so I thought I would share with you my current build that I started a couple of days ago.I was watching a gun clip on You Tube about the Jager Pistole and thought that it would be an interesting build as there weren't too many made ( about 2000 so it is rare ) and there aren't too many components to it and it looks pretty straight forward to me as a build. I went on the Net and saved some pictures of the pistol and then took two of the side profiles in to get enlarged to about the right size.
After that had been done I decided to make the side frames out of styrene plastic and the rest of the gun would be made from MDF and Aluminium. I traced the open side frame onto the plastic and putting another one with it, cut them the two out on the band saw as this was quicker than using a hobby knife. After that was done and the holes cut out, I then glued some more sheet to the inside rear part of the frames to increase their thickness as per the original.
And that is where I am up to at the moment. The next step is making the front and rear straps from MDF, so stay tuned.
